Matrìca was born from a strategic partnership between Versalis, Eni's chemical company, and Novamont, leader in the bioplastics market. These two companies’ research efforts and expertise were key in an industrial reconversion project that led to an integrated platform for chemistry from renewable sources. Today, the innovative range of Matrilox® bioproducts is manufactured in Porto Torres, (Sassari, Italy). Matrìca products are entirely derived from renewable sources, thanks to an innovative technology that aims to use the molecular complexity of the vegetable raw materials and produce high value added biochemicals. Among Matrìca fatty acids, the C9 mono- and di-carboxylic acids are obtained with high-purity and can be valorized in premium market segments. In addition, Matrìca portfolio includes C5-C9 carboxylic acids blend, glycerine and a range of different esters.
