THE BIO DUCKS<\/h2>\n<\/div><\/div>
These new ducks were manufactured with materials that allow their durability and are certified as compostable in a compostable plant. Also, the ducks were processed in specific molds, designed for WOP ducks, and were developed with the minimum possible thickness, being more sustainable due to the lower material consumption in their manufacture, while maximizing the speed of their future disintegration. The ducks are not perfect in any of their aspects. They are yellow, but their roughness is greater, they are not flexible and you can tell that they are the result of an R&D process. They are compostable in a composting plant and developed with plant-based materials, and are non-toxic to the environment. This is an exercise in advancing our sustainability efforts. Although our mission is the fight against neurodegenerative diseases, environmental aspects are transversal to our processes and events<\/strong>, which take place in the natural environment. It is a path that we are increasingly aware of as a society; a path that will clearly not be exempt from sacrifices to the levels of finishing and customs of use associated with traditional plastics and economic sacrifices until R&D is industrialized and socialized with bio alternatives.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div>
