Economic, ecological, dynamic

The Bionatic Group: Sustainable Business Practices

Our philosophy and our mission

Our actions focus on aligning all business processes with targeted economic, ecological, and dynamic principles. At the core of our mission is the development of companies and investments that produce, promote, and distribute products or services featuring an environmentally friendly “sustainability core” or a “sustainably positive impact on our environment.”

To establish an efficient and resource-conserving value chain, we leverage innovative, development-focused, and stable solutions in the fields of sustainable products, e-commerce, fulfillment services, and logistics.

Bionatic Company Story

From e-commerce to production and e-fulfilment to the development of digital solutions

Since 2009, we have evolved from a purely e-commerce provider of products made from renewable, bio-based, compostable, or recycled resources. Through the production of palm leaf tableware, reusable bowls, and containers, and with e-fulfillment services that deliver positive eco-effects, we strengthen our brands with consistently high-quality goods and services. This includes, for example, the development of the merways mobile app for the rental of personalized reusable containers.

Partners from Start to Finish

With additional online stores in various European countries, we have also expanded into new markets. Our ability to manage extensive inventories and ensure smooth delivery is made possible by centralizing key processes in our regional logistics center, which connects us to major trading hubs worldwide.
