About Biome
Biome Technologies plc is an AIM
listed, growth-orientated, commercially driven technology group.
Our strategy is founded on building market-leading positions based
on patented technology and serving international customers in
valuable market sectors. We have chosen to do this by developing
products in application areas where value-added pricing can be
justified and which are not reliant on government legislation.
These products are driven by customer requirements and are
compatible with existing manufacturing processes. They are market
rather than technology-led.
The Group comprises two divisions,
Biome Bioplastics Limited ("Bioplastic") and Stanelco RF
Technologies Limited ("RF Technologies").
Biome Bioplastics is a leading
developer of highly-functional, bio-based and biodegradable
plastics. The company's mission is to produce bioplastics that
challenge the dominance of oil-based polymers.
Stanelco RF Technologies designs,
builds and services advanced radio frequency (RF) systems.
Dielectric and induction heating products are at the core of a
product offering that ranges from portable sealing devices to large
furnaces for the fibre optics markets.
