Introduction to SPRINGBOARD®

The startup upcycle sidestreams from food production to replace conventional wood fibers. By detaching packaging from forestry, the startup is revolutionizing the next generation of packaging with eco-friendly solutions, unmatched in sustainability.

Currently, the startup has produced early-stage proof of concept for converting their leftover fibers into a durable material fit for creating boxes.

Together with Teknologisk Institut the startup is drafting a collaboration project that will support the further development of their technology into a functional prototype & MVP fit for customer pilot projects.


Areas for sparring

For this SPRINGBOARD®, panelists with competencies/experience within these themes, are needed for sparring (prioritised):

                                                1. 1. What are commonly overlooked pitfalls in achieving sustainable upscaling between suppliers and manufacturers?

                                                2. 2. How to set up quantitative and qualitative customer pilot projects.

                                                3. 3. What key considerations are essential when scaling production from a pilot plant to a full industrial scale?

                                                          The solution

                                                          We are bridging the gap towards a regenerative future, by introducing the worlds first reusable & completely customizable transportation & storage box, made from leftovers in food production


                                                          USP’s

                                                          Responsible sourcing

                                                          Reducing emissions

                                                          Complete customization


                                                          The business model

                                                          The startup plans to sell their boxes directly to B2B customers and engage in a closed loop recycling system with their customers. This means that companies will be able to replace any broken boxes with new ones by returning the damaged boxes, where the startup can recycle these into new packaging boxes.

                                                          At end of life, the fibers can be channeled into biogas production, ensuring continuous cycling and value creation in adjacent verticals.


                                                          Revenue model

                                                          To complement their closed loop B2B model, the startup will implement a subscription-based solution. Based on a fixed monthly price/box, customers can replace their broken boxes free of charge.
