Plastics affect human civilization in many ways. They are no longer just the raw material we use. They have become a global problem endangering the quality of the environment and are responsible for ocean pollution and species extinction. Humanity annually produces an incredible 300 million tons of plastic. About a third of it gets directly into the environment and causes its pollution. Their parts are slowly becoming part of human tissues and getting rid of plastic waste is not easy. Surely, not only from the news, you know those pitiful shots of the Great Pacific garbage patch formed by rotating ocean currents, where marine trash accumulates and has estimated size of 1.6 million square kilometers. But new hope emerges in the field of plastics, which are 100% degradable and built from renewable raw materials.

We at N - Point believe in the idea that it is not only possible to reduce use of plastics but also to replace them with a variant, which will be completely environmentally friendly. We are the leader of the Slovak market in the development and distribution of mobile phone accessories and as the first in Slovakia, and actually worldwide, we have prepared a project of 100% degradable bio-plastic mobile phone cases that we want to offer to all environmentally minded people.

Ecofriendly mobile phone cases are not new to Slovakia or to the world. However, our new cases are the only ones that do not contain any synthetic polymers made from petroleum (such as PBAT) that produce fossil CO₂ during decomposition, which contributes to global warming.

These cases are made of Nonoilen – a 100% eco-friendly solution for biodegradable plastics. Nonoilen was created by Slovak scientists as a part of cooperation between company Panara and the scientific team from The Faculty of Chemical and Food Technology of Slovak University of Technology in Bratislava under the leadership of prof. Ing. Pavel Alexy, PhD. and is protected by Slovak and international patent protection.

This unique material is a combination of polymers made from biobased raw materials which are transformed by special technology to "enviro-plastic", which has practically the same properties as conventional plastics. Moreover, it has no negative impact on the nature and is totally environmentally and health friendly. At the end of its lifecycle, the case is decomposed in a biologically active environment into biomass, water and carbon dioxide, which is consumed for the growth of green matter required for bioplastic re-production. The whole cycle is thus closed and there is no damage to the atmosphere when decomposing Nonoilen.

This is world premiere of a mobile phone case that has virtually the same characteristics as any other "synthetic" case but is made of renewable raw materials and is 100% biodegradable (compostable) and will not burden the atmosphere during its degradation. We are starting with a prototype edition for Huawei P30. In final stages of pre-production is case for Apple iPhone 11 and in preparation phase are cases for multiple models from various brands. By purchasing this Slovak product, you will join those who care about the environment and at the same time you will also support further development of this material.

In order to fully exploit its ecological potential at the end of its service life, it must be decomposed under the controlled conditions of industrial compost. If you do not have this option, you can return the case back to us or return it to a collection point at any Orange Slovakia store and we will do it for you free of charge.

We firmly believe that together we will contribute to make life better and healthier for us and our children.
