Specialty chemicals company LANXESS and Matrìca, a joint venture between Versalis (Eni) and Novamont, have partnered to produce sustainable biocide preservatives from renewable raw materials.
As of January, the Matrìca plant at Porto Torres in Sardinia, Italy, will supply LANXESS with biobased raw materials from vegetable oils that LANXESS will use to manufacture a new series of industrial preservatives broadening its Preventol range.
Matrìca says its Matrilox bioproducts range, made from European vegetable raw materials, is derived entirely from renewable sources thanks to an innovative technology that aims to use the molecular complexity of the vegetable raw material to produce chemicals with high added value.
“Joining forces with an important and acknowledged partner such as LANXESS in the biobased market segment opens up sustainable development opportunities and a globally extended perspective for Matrìca’s bio-products portfolio,” said Nicola Melacarne, general manager of Matrìca.
The companies say the partnership is designed to advance the production of sustainable preservatives and address the markets’ growing demand. The new Preventol preservatives are designed for consumer products, such as household cleaners, laundry care and dishwashing products as well as paints and coatings.
