Starting September 1st, waste treatment centers in Almería will ban the disposal of crop residues containing plastic raffia, in compliance with legislation that prohibits its presence in composting facilities. This measure forces farmers to rethink how they manage their crop waste.
In response to this new scenario, Hilaturas Mar presents BioTwine, a 100% Compostable & Biodegradable twine, developed from cellulose and certified as Home Compost. This twine withstands the entire crop cycle and allows farmers to chop it directly in the field, eliminating the need to send it to an industrial composting plant.
Rafael Barceló, Head of Sales & Development at Hilaturas Mar, stated in an interview with AgroDifusión:
We want to offer a clear an effective solution in light of this legislation. Our twine is Home Compostable and meets the strength and elongation requirements demanded by intensive crops.
During the recent edition of the InfoAgro trade fair, which has just concluded, there was a noticeable increase in interest in this type of solution, largely driven by the new regulations from Servicios Ambientales Las Chozas
We attended the event to listen firsthand the needs of the sector and to offer tailored advice. The reception was overwhelmingly positive, with many professionals eager to learn more about BioTwine product range, adapted to various crops.

At Hilaturas Mar, we offer different formats of compostable twine, tailored to the requirements of each crop, with high tensile strength, low elongation, and competitive pricing.
With a strong presence in European markets and a firm commitment to sustainability, Hilaturas Mar stands out as a reliable supplier in a pivotal moment of transformation for the agricultural sector.
