One upon a time…
Biolice is the result of the commitment of our shareholders – all farmers in the Auvergne – to use natural cereal biodiversity. In 1994, the original idea was to use the grain as part of filler in the manufacture of biodegradable plastics for a particular purpose, mulch film for growing our seed corn. A new material that is flexible and resistant, environmentally friendly and economical in terms of fossil fuels, as part of a sustainable and low input agricultural system. The concept biolice was launched commercially in 2005.
