Farmers face increasingly challenging growing conditions: climate stress, tighter regulation, and a shrinking toolbox of approved inputs. And the coatings meant to protect their seeds are adding to the pressure. Most seeds are coated before they’re sown, and many of these coatings are made from synthetic plastics. With every growing season, microplastics enter the soil directly, where they accumulate, persist, and degrade the very ground farming depends on. It’s no longer only an environmental concern: from October 2028, the EU restricts microplastics in seed coatings outright. The industry needs alternatives that perform just as well, without leaving plastic behind.

Carapace stands for a protective coat that shields what matters, tuned to the conditions it faces.

At Carapace Biopolymers, we reinvent seed coatings for a climate-resilient future. Unlike microplastic-based coatings, our materials are made from natural biopolymers that break down into crop nutrition helping build healthier soils and plants.

Science that performs. Materials that disappear. Benefits that stay.

By combining advanced biopolymer science with scalable manufacturing, we help farmers and growers achieve higher yields without the microplastic trade-off in increasingly challenging conditions. Carapace is helping agriculture shift toward a world where sustainability is not a compromise, but a competitive advantage. And with regulatory and market demand for biodegradable agri-inputs rising rapidly, we’re making it work fast.

“We believe in growing more, while leaving less behind.”

AgriTech is changing fast. Our platform coating technology is built for what’s next and here’s how.
