MINIMIZING ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACT

The protection of the environment and in particular the fight against climate change are issues to which Materia Nova attaches great importance.

Materia Nova offers different expertise in materials and processes to reduce resource consumption and increase autonomy:

• a life cycle analysis and eco-design consulting service which integrates this aspect into each of its development projects.
• circular materials: biodegradable, with organic raw materials based and/or of renewable origin,
• low-toxicity materials and processes: products free of Chromium 6 and heavy metals, alternatives to PFAS, solvent-free synthesis systems, cyanide-free silvering,
• water and air depollution and purification processes
• new generation biosensors and (bio)chips, for measuring environmental and bacterial parameters (early detection of diseases on agricultural plants, monitoring the impact of biological control agents - micro-organisms and/or biocidal molecules entering in the composition of biopesticides).
• green energy production processes (hydrogen heat, electricity) from organic agricultural or livestock waste which today cause environmental harm (pig urine, nitrogen-loaded wastewater or from sewage sludge) .
• decontamination processes and improvement of the quality of seeds, primarily intended for organic farming.
