Environment-friendly packaging Landbox
Straw instead of styrofoam
With a sustainable packaging box a startup is taking new paths in online retail
Online trading is booming - and the mountains of rubbish are growing along with it. Landpack has developed an ecologically correct packaging alternative. The start-up turns straw into money while simultaneously doing something for the environment: after the grain is threshed the stalks are no longer used as littering for stalls or ploughed into the ground, but mechanically processed into moulded parts. The result: a packaging box made of straw that can be disposed of in the compost heap! The natural material is moisture-regulating and odourless, and insulates as well as stryofoam, but no environmentally harmful mineral oils are needed in production - the ideal packaging for sensitive food.
