Novamont SpA

Novamont is a certified B Corporation and Benefit Corporation, as well as one of a global leader in biodegradable and compostable bioplastics and the development of bioproducts and biochemicals derived wholly or partially from renewable, plant-based sources.

Our industrial journey has its roots in the Montedison School of Material Science, where, nearly thirty years ago, a group of researchers began working on an ambitious vision to integrate chemistry, agriculture, and environmental sustainability. This vision is what we call "Living Chemistry for Quality of Life".

Novamont is now part of Versalis (Eni) and operates as a group comprising five production sites (four in Italy and one in Estonia), three research centres (including the Matrìca Research Centre in a joint venture with Versalis) and three technology hubs covering a wide range of expertise, from laboratory-scale experimentation to advanced pilot plants. We also have commercial offices in Germany, France, Spain and the United States, as well as a distribution network spanning more than 40 countries.

Over the years, we have industrialised thirteen proprietary technologies, four of which are unique, creating bioplastics and bioproducts through a multidisciplinary approach combining bioplastics, biotechnology, agronomy, organic chemistry and product ecology.
