Raw material cycle

AURO has been building on the raw material concept of the future since 1983: plants.

Plants offer an immeasurable variety of raw materials for color production, all of which are completely biodegradable. Each individual plant is a highly efficient chemical factory that manufactures its products completely waste-free.

For example, a plant can produce relevant quantities of cellulose in its stems, colorants in its leaves, waxes on the leaf surface, fats and proteins in its fruits and fragrances and resins in its flowers.
