We’re proud to see the PolyNatural team featured in the latest issue of Avenues magazine.
The story, “Naturally clever,” explores how our Christchurch-based engineers and scientists are using naturally occurring, fermentation-derived polymers to create high-performance alternatives to conventional petrochemical products.
From viticulture clips and plant protectors to wool w**d mats, our focus is practical: materials engineered to perform for their intended lifespan, then return safely to nature at end of life—without leaving persistent plastic or microplastics behind.
A big thank you to Avenues and Liam Stretch for telling our story, and to the growers, customers, partners and wider team helping turn better material solutions into real-world products.
