In 2015 Bio-on sponsored the scientific mission EXXPEDITION with Caterina Falleni (

The expedition saw an all-female team of scientists and researchers sailing the oceans and studying the condition of our seas and oceans. Many tests were conducted following a process identical to that used on space missions.
Material will be made available on-line followed by a report published around the world as well as photos and video.
For Italy, Caterina Falleni took part sponsored by Bio-on SpA.
Caterina carried out research and tests with PHAs (made by Bio-on), the only bioplastic that will completely biodegrade naturally in sea water.
