Rimeloop stems from years of research and development by EggPlant Srl in the field of biopolymers and related compounding. It encompasses a wide range of blends made with green polymers through a patented cross-linking process.
The development of these blends is carried out by researchers at EggPlant with the support of high-standing scientific and academic partners, including the Department of Innovation Engineering at the University of Salento.
Neverending Bioplastics
Plastic evolution, sustainable by nature.
Rimeloop(C) represents a range of green blends (bio-based, biodegradable, compostable) with excellent mechanical, thermal, chemical, and physical properties suitable for the partial and/or total replacement of conventional polymers derived from fossil sources.
Rimeloop guarantees high technical performance, comparable to or even superior to conventional counterparts, with a significantly reduced carbon footprint. Rimeloop-branded blends can be used in various industrial sectors with the same production methods and processing technologies as traditional polymers; a transition that positively revolutionizes finished products, making them more environmentally and human health-friendly while maintaining their high performance.
Rimeloop is born with a strong environmental and social imprint, designed according to the principles of circular economy. It allows for sustainable control and management of the end-of-life of products, as it can be biodegraded or handled in environments suitable for recovery and/or recycling.

About Us
Rimeloop(C) is a proprietary technology of EggPlant, an innovative company active in the development and production of green biopolymers (compostable, bio-based, biodegradable). EggPlant's core business focuses on PHA (polyhydroxyalkanoates), a family of fully bio-based and biodegradable polymers with technical characteristics similar to some conventional fossil-based polymers (e.g., polypropylene).
EggPlant è titolare di diverse domande di brevetto relative ai PHA che riguardano sia la loro produzione a partire da reflui che il loro blending e applicazioni.
