EcoFLEXY<\/h2>\n\n

CELLUGY<\/em> is a Danish-based start-up company that develops sustainable materials through biotransformation. The company has developed EcoFLEXY<\/em> – a water-based nanocellulose suspension obtained through the fermentation of sugar by specific microorganisms. The material does not come from fossil sources and is fully biodegradable and compostable (at room temperature). Compared to its fossil-based alternatives, it has a low carbon footprint and, being made from 100% organic nanocellulose, leaves no microplastics. The material has great potential because it can also be used as a barrier coating for paper and cardboard, thus completing the end material. In addition, the material can be used as a rheological modifier for chemicals and cosmetics. <\/p>\n\n
