Como industria social nacimos con el propósito de aportar soluciones a través de alternativas de “mejores empaques” fabricados a base de bioplástico, a las problemáticas del alto nivel de basura plástica de un solo uso y el alto nivel de basura orgánica en vertederos. Los productos de madre son fabricados con un material llamado bioplástico, de origen europeo, producido a partir de materias primas de fuentes renovables tales como almidones y aceites vegetales. Desde madre impulsamos la separación de la basura y su correcta disposición, pues la tecnología de nuestros productos permite que los mismos puedan ser desechados junto con la basura orgánica y así biodegradarse y compostarse, reintegrandose a la tierra en 90-180 dias. El producto final del proceso de compostaje es el ‘compost’ o abono orgánico, que aporta a nutrir el suelo a través de la recuperación de los nutrientes de la basura orgánica, llevándola de vuelta al ciclo natural. De esta forma madre aporta a la reducción de la basura no solo plástica sino también orgánica en vertederos, que hoy en Paraguay representa el 70%.
