Hydal Biotechnology

We produce high-quality PHA from waste cooking oil (WCO) through the unique Hydal biotechnology.

P3HB Biopolymer

P3HB is non-toxic, biocompatible and biodegradable. It is a circular material from waste.

Cosmetics

PHAs cause no toxicity, irritation or allergic skin reaction. In addition, Hydal PHA is fully biodegradable.

Biomedicine

The main properties of PHAs make them excellent candidates for biomedical applications.

Our mission

Our journey is called Hydal PHA and it leads to a sustainable future. Because we feel responsible not only for ourselves, but also for others. We believe it is fair to contribute to a better life for all of us through our business.

Our vision has been unchanging since the beginning and can be expressed in two words: a better world. A better world based on scientific knowledge and new technologies. This vision has been fulfilled every day, by each and every one of us, for ten years.

What we build on

The evolution of today’s world and knowledge is turbulent and disruptive. It is not evolutionary but rather revolutionary. New technologies and concepts are one of the foundations for meeting climate goals and protecting the environment. And creating lasting value in this environment requires having a clear strategy and clear pillars on which to build.

    €1.4 million for the development of eco-friendly packaging. Nafigate and BUT project supported by the European Commission

    The know-how of a Czech company and a university is the basis of a joint project of 17 European companies and institutions that will develop the ecological packaging of the future for food or cosmetics. The company and the university have been successful in a tender for the Horizon 2020 research programme, which receives €8.8 million in European funding.

    Forbes
    NAFIGATE Corporation - one of the first cosmetics products in the world which is using biopolymer P3HB

    At Nafigate, they know that without a real product, the success of the technology would be limited, so they have brought shower milk, soap and other cosmetics to the market – all products use biopolymers made with natural bacteria instead of classic hazardous microplastics.
