Who We Are
Minerya was born from a simple intuition: the material on which we print, package, and communicate can evolve faster than the current production models.
We come from the intersection of industry, materials research, and environmental challenges, with one idea in mind: to use an abundant mineral resource to ease the pressure on forests and reduce dependency on virgin plastics.
We do not position ourselves as being "against" paper or "against" plastic, but as a partner offering an additional, measurable, and industrialisable option for organisations that wish to evolve their materials without sacrificing performance.
Minerya is an independent, human-sized structure that builds its projects through direct contact with the technical teams, trades, and CSR departments of its partners.
Team & Expertise
Our team brings together several complementary areas of expertise
Materials
R&D
Formulation and optimisation of the material based on stone powder, performance tests (mechanical, ageing, durability), and continuous work on compatibility with existing industrial processes.
30 years of industrial engineering
Experience in transformation, extrusion, calendaring, printing, and shaping to ensure smooth integration of the material into existing lines with volumes relevant to industrialists.
25 years of artistic creation and design.
Design of concrete applications (printed materials, packaging, signage, technical objects) based on real-world constraints: resistance, touch, graphic rendering, transport, storage, recyclability.
Impact & Regulation
Monitoring European regulations (plastics, forests, circularity), environmental impact analysis, integration into CSR approaches, and supporting clients in understanding the benefits and limitations.
This combination allows us to engage equally with a workshop manager, a sustainable development director, a design office, or a creative team.
Partners
& Certifications
We advance with a network of partners, each playing a role in the reliability of the material and its uses
The goal remains the same:
To secure performance, clarify what the material allows (and what it does not yet allow), and offer our clients tangible proof for their own stakeholders.
Industrial Partners
Production sites, transformers, and printers who test, adapt, and validate the material under real production conditions.
Laboratories and Third-Party Organisations
Specialists in compliance testing, material characterisation, durability, recyclability, and certain regulatory aspects.
Innovation Networks and Structures
Incubators, clusters, innovation programmes, or trade networks that help identify new uses and confront the material with concrete needs.
Certifications and Labels
Depending on the markets and product families, we engage in normative testing, sectoral recognitions, or environmental labels appropriate to the intended uses.
