Biodegradable Mulch

Biodegradable mulch films are an eco-friendly, economical and reliable alternative to conventional mulch films.

For more than twenty years, AGRIPOLYANE has been developing and marketing biodegradable mulch films for all types of crops, including semi-permanent and permanent cultivations (strawberry, pineapple, vineyard, pineapple, orchard, etc.) Under the brand names BIOPOLYANE® and BIOLENE® we offer a wide, complete range for every crop and climate condition. All our products are compatible with the relative machinery and agricultural equipment used in the application of conventional mulch film.

Complying with the new EN-17033 standard, these products can be used in Organic Agriculture and are recognised by ECOCERT, leaving no residues in the soil after use. 

In addition, the economic benefits are substantial:

No eco-contribution fees* No labour cost to remove from soil No costs to transport and dispose
