Natura is the first cosmetics company to obtain green patent

Natura became the first Brazilian cosmetics company to receive the Green Patent from the National Institute of Industrial Property (INPI), after developing a technique that uses waste from the Amazon as a productive input. According to the company, the biomass generated from the extraction of oil from oil oil such as murumuru, andiroba and chestnut begins to be inserted into a new product, to be launched next year. Previously, this biomass was used as fertilizer. Green, what I want you for. The Green Patent is an Inpi program aimed at accelerating the examination of patent applications related to environmental-oriented technologies. The registration guarantees Natura exclusivity in the commercial use of innovation during the first years./ Flavia Alemi.
