Sustainable packaging alternatives are usually very expensive to deploy at full market scale as the products are not mature enough yet. one • fıve tackles this problem of scalability by transforming existing academic lab-scale material science inventions into market-ready solutions that are economically viable and meet the rising demand of conscious consumers. They systematically discover promising - but not yet mature - research results from renowned universities and research institutes.
Researchers at one • fıve further develop this IP in their own 5,000 m² R&D campus near Hamburg, Germany. The facility includes algae cultivation, processing, fermentation capacity, a laboratory, a prototype workshop and testing facilities, giving them the necessary infrastructure to further develop these technologies from a previous proof of concept into a market-ready proof of scalability.
