Selena FM S A : Group launches a new biopolymer production
About this update from Selena Fm S.a.
Wrocław, 13 April 2022 Selena Group launches a new biopolymer production system Selena Group - one of the global leaders of the construction chemicals sector - has deployed a new line for the production of biopolymers. It will be used at the Selena Industrial Technologies plants in Nowa Ruda and Dzierżoniów to fabricate innovative plastics from natural components. Selena Group was the leader of and the first large Polish company to coordinate an international consortium that in 2017 began one of the projects financed under the Horizon 2020 program (with funding managed by a public-private partnership: Circular Bio-based Europe Joint Undertaking). One of the initiatives funded by the program was the Biomotive project, carried out for more than four years by Selena's research & development center and its 15 foreign partners. Among other things, the project led to the development of new formulations for biopolymers and enabled construction of a new system for their manufacture in Nowa Ruda and Dzierżoniów. Since its very beginning, the company has focused on the creation and development of innovative solutions for construction that are easy to use, accelerate work on building sites and have a positive impact on the environment.

Today, after being incorporated into Selena Industrial Technologies, together with Orion and Libra plants, this central laboratory (formerly "Selena Labs") is the leader of the Group's globally integrated R&D operations.

Marketing innovative products is one of the priorities of our business strategy. This is also a natural choice in favor of environmentally friendly-zero emission and pro-consumer solutions. For years now, Selena Group has put a high premium on projects advancing sustainable development goals, and recently we have established a dedicated department to ensure the application of the highest standards in this area at every level of our organization," says Krzysztof Domarecki, the main shareholder of Selena Group.
