BASED ON NATURAL BIOPOLYMERS
traceless’ disruptive potential lies in our patent-pending technology - an innovative process that is simple, environmentally friendly and has high scale-up potential.
It allows us to extract natural biopolymers from agricultural industry residues. So instead of synthetically creating new polymer molecules, we use the ones that nature has already produced.
WE CREATE
BASE MATERIALS
We produce traceless® as a base material in granulate form - a holistically sustainable alternative material to conventional plastics and bioplastics that is certified biobased, home compostable and plastic-free.
LIKE PLASTICS,
BUT TRACELESS!
The quality and functionality of traceless® materials is competitive to those of conventional plastics and bioplastics, while being compostable under natural conditions. Designed for plastic converting technologies, they can be further processed to flexible films, rigid material, coatings and adhesives - all while containing only natural substances.
That’s why we don’t call our materials plastic, and also not bioplastic, but simply: traceless®!
FOR A WIDE RANGE OF APPLICATIONS
traceless® is suitable for many different use cases, from flexible and rigid packaging (food & non-food) to single-use products, high abrasion products, paper and cardboard coatings & adhesive solutions.

BASED ON
NATURAL POLYMERS
traceless® materials leave behind the familiar categories of the (bio)plastic age - and open up a new generation of plastic-free materials: natural biomaterials!
They are not only bio-based, but even biobased on leftovers, namely plant residues of agricultural industry. For biodegradation, they don‘t need industrial composting conditions, but are certified home compostable.
The secret key for traceless®' excellent compostability: Natural polymers! Because nature has produced them, the natural microorganisms out there already know how to handle them, and can easily digest them.
Under natural composting conditions like on a home compost, composting takes only 2-9 weeks, depending on the thickness of the material. traceless® is certified home compostable.
