Matrìca is a 50:50 joint venture between Versalis (part of ENI, a global leader in the manufacture and marketing of petrochemical products), and Novamont, a company at the forefront of the bio-plastics industry. The purpose of the joint venture is to reconvert the petrochemical facility at Porto Torres into a integrated green chemistry complex to develop a state-of-the-art range of products sourced from vegetable raw materials, using an integrated agricultural production chain.

Exalto has advised Versalis to obtain the White Certificates (national incentives) for a 12 MW biomass heater in Porto Torres (SS).
