The renewable, biodegradable net clip developed for the viticulture industry addresses an emerging environmental problem: The accumulation of non-degrading littler of broken net clips in vineyards and generation of microplastic pollution. The solution is a clip made of biodegradable polymers and renewable additives. The short-life, single-use product now has an appropriate end of life – it degrades! A new, additional sustainable practice for an industry that relies on brand profile.
