Great plans ahead
The company’s starting point was the problem of single-use plastics in de packaging industry. Of these materials, especially foams are still difficult to recycle. That is when they identified an opportunity to create an innovative solution. Some of their milestones are related to the development of materials/machinery vs matching the market needs and achieving the result of a first circle of happy clients after the delivery phase.
FIBI-buffer has recently reached a stable network of partners related to materials, machinery, production, and sales to be able to produce on large scale. Together with local partners in Europe, US and Canada, this network has set scaling-up and copy-pasting their proven concept in these new markets as the next steps soon to be taken.
