About the project

In the Bubbles with Benefits project, we develop sustainable packaging materials: bio-based bubble wraps, packing foams, and packing puffs. We are optimizing our materials to meet the demands for functionality, sustainability, and aesthetics, while developing scalable production processes to bring our packaging innovations to market.

We are developing our materials with the support of Business Finland’s Research to Business funding at Aalto University and South-Eastern Finland University of Applied Sciences (Xamk) in Finland.

Our team

We have a dream team bubbling with expertise and passion to transform the packaging industry. Our diverse team blends expertise in design, chemical engineering, production technology, and business development.
