the Future of Sustainability
...

The current plastic crisis is impacting our planet. Microplastics have been found in the snow of Mt. Everest and the sediment of the Mariana Trench. They appear in our water and food supply, and, therefore, in our bloodstream. This is not acceptable. And we are on a mission to make a difference.

Pioneering the future of sustainability ...

The current plastic crisis is impacting our planet. Microplastics have been found in the snow of Mt. Everest and the deepest parts of the ocean. They are found in our water, our food, and our bodies - negatively impacting our health. We can do better.

Products made with Solon


Solon is an ideal material for replacing petroleum-based, single-use plastics, including cutlery, paper coatings, food packaging, films, fibers, fabrics and more.



Certifications


Certified 


RWDC’s Solon has received internationally recognized biodegradability and compostable certifications from TUV Austria. The certifications provide third-party verification that Solon will biodegrade in any natural environment.

Because
Solon can biodegrade in any natural environment, it doesn't require commercial composting facilities as other "compostable" plastic alternatives on the market.


Solon is created in a "closed-loop" process, with a carbon footprint significantly less than that of traditional plastics.

100% Biodegradable


Solon breaks down into harmless substances – carbon dioxide and water – in marine, fresh water and soil conditions.


Solon has all the functional benefits of petroleum-based plastics – without the devastating environmental or human health impacts.
