RAIKU Packaging

Start-up

Tallinn, Estonia

We will substitute plastics and other high-carbon packaging materials (bubble wrap, paper, cartons, bioplastics) with our 100% natural, compostable, beautiful, and shock absorbing material. RAIKU’s packaging filling is made out of only one raw material, wood, and no chemicals or additives are used in the production. The raw material use is extremely efficient as we can turn 1 m3 of wood into 15-20 m3 of packaging. Combined with very low amounts of energy and water, we can offer one of the lowest packaging materials in the world, if not the lowest. For example, compared to paper and carton production we reduce wood use by over 90%, energy use by 98% and water use by 99%. In addition, chemical use will be reduced by 100% as we use none. Compared to paper/carton, RAIKU’s material is much more protective, aesthetic, similar or even lower priced, and offers a minimally 10 times smaller CO2 footprint. We are part of LVMH Accelerator and currently scaling our production!
