What we do

The functional technology of the filler is versatile, and its intensity can be modulated so that it can be applied to different materials and production areas.
The filler is composed of organic molecules linked to an edible and biocompatible inorganic lamellar structure (clay) that can be easily dispersed in a polymer matrix to obtain hybrid systems (organic-inorganic) that act as a barrier. It can also protect and preserve the product without affecting its original inherent properties.
The introduction of the filler was developed using a manufacturing process that is fully compatible with conventional industrial film application systems.

Sustainable development

Nicefiller® works by considering the environment and developing new business ideas without neglecting the quality of life and work.
cronogard® is the first application developed for the market: it helps reduce food waste without altering the ability of the products onto which it is applied to be recycled or composted.

Solutions

Our solutions are based on the application of the innovative filler.
The possibility of making specific molecules in the filler work, maintaining the inherent qualities of the product, and providing new quality improvements for different products and materials.
