MATER-BI products for packaging can be disposed of in separate collection of organic waste and sent for recycling in composting plants to become fertile compost.

Biodegradable and compostable carrier bags, which can be re-used for the separate collection of organic waste, and bags and gloves for the fruits&vegetables departments are some examples of MATER-BI products already successfully introduced in the large scale distribution.
