KAUST startup Polymeron reduces the need for single-use common plastics by manufacturing 100%-biodegradable polymeric materials, using organic waste leftover from local date and poultry farms.
Polymeron’s bioplastics can be used in traditional plastic extruders to manufacture products ranging from soil-degradable bioplastic bags to compostable single-use cutlery.
