08/11/2023 – A global coalition of packaging and material companies is calling on UN Treaty makers to recognise natural polymer materials as a key tool in the fight against plastic pollution. Officially launched today, the Natural Polymers Group is a new industry voice committed to scaling natural polymer solutions to reduce plastic pollution globally. The group, representing seven innovators (across the US, Europe and India), has been founded to establish nature-based materi

We're thrilled to bring you some incredible news: We've successfully closed our Series A funding round! By securing €36.6 Million for the construction of our first industry plant, we are able to produce our bio-circular alternative material traceless® on a large scale - replacing thousands of tons of conventional plastics. Key investors include UB FIGG and SWEN CP’s Blue Ocean fund. The funding means a major stride towards achieving our goal: offering a solution to address th

As science, tech & sustainability enthusiasts it's our pleasure to announce: We are featured in the famous Science-TV show Galileo! The show has always been close to the latest discoveries in science, technology and society, and great in presenting them to a large audience. And a large audience is exactly what sustainable solutions need! "Plastic" from the fields: plant-based, compostable and entirely natural Get ready for 12 minutes spotlight on our biobased, compostable & p

27. Deutscher Sparkassentag - everyone was there: Olaf Scholz, Robert Habeck, Christine Lagarde... and in between: traceless founder Anne Lamp! Have we changed the field - from environmentally friendly materials to finance?! No! But to realise the radical green transformation that drives us every day, it takes more than technical solutions and a committed society. Yep, we all know: it's the money that makes the world go round. In other words: Money is the lever to change the

We have great news! We won the 3rd prize of the ‘’Renewable Material of the Year Award 2023’’! Most of you probably link the word renewability to renewable energy, but did you know renewability encompasses much more than that? With the concept of “Renewable Carbon”, the Nova Institute has developed a holistic definition of renewability, especially when it comes to materials. Therefore they annually hand out The Renewable Material of the Year Award. This year we were one of th

We have great news: The planned construction of our demonstration production plant is supported by the German Federal Ministry for the Environment! We receive 5 million euros under the BMUV's Environment Innovation Programme (Umweltinnovationsprogramm). Today, the Parliamentary State Secretary Dr. Bettina Hoffmann presented the funding check to founders. In her statement, Hoffmann acknowledged the great potential of the project, and the outstanding benefit for the environment

As a young company founded in 2020, it was our first time at Interpack - the No. 1 Trade Fair for Packaging and Processing. And we directly entered the spotlight: The Live TV Studio Tightly Packed! As an impact startup with a holistic, science-based approach and a novel, pioneering material solution, our mission is at the heart of the issue that this Interpack addresses: The green transformation of the packaging industry. Since our innovative biomaterial solution traceless® h

Natural materials like paper, cotton or beeswax have a long tradition to be used in packaging - the first packaging film was cellophane, a transparent film made from plant-extracted regenerated cellulose. In recent years, novel innovatione technologies were developed, bringing natural materials back on the radar - and traceless® is one of them! The novel generation of natural biomaterials are based on natural polymers extracted from biomass using innovative eco-friendly proce

The hottest fashion trend this season? Sustainability! That's right, it's no longer about the latest print or color, but about making a positive impact on the planet through fashion. And unlike trends that come and go, this one is a true transition! And what better way to pave the road for this than on the TextilWirtschaft Sustainability Summit in Frankfurt?
