Scaling FlexyBin – Sustainable Household Plastic Waste Infrastructure

Director at LUMA-iD Ltd.

London, United Kingdom

About

Flexible plastic packaging is one of the fastest-growing waste streams globally, yet it remains largely uncollected at the household level due to lack of dedicated home infrastructure. Developed through Innovate UK funding, FlexyBin is a dedicated household waste collector engineered specifically to enable clean, space-efficient segregation of flexible packaging.

We are seeking seed/growth investment and strategic corporate investors (venture arms, cleantech funds, or manufacturing partners) across the UK and Singapore to accelerate commercialization and regional expansion.

Investment Highlights:

  • Proven Product Development: Functional hardware platform validated through Innovate UK-supported design and user trials.

  • Mass Market Potential: Directly targets municipal recycling mandates and corporate extended producer responsibility (EPR) regulations across Europe and Asia-Pacific.

  • Scalable Unit Economics: Designed using advanced additive and high-volume molding processes for low unit manufacturing cost and high margins.

  • Urban Fit (Singapore/SE Asia): Compact footprint optimized for high-density apartment living and smart city integration.

Use of Capital:

  • Scaling tooling and high-volume manufacturing capabilities.

  • Conducting Singapore and South-East Asian market pilot deployments.

  • Integrating IoT/sensor features for smart municipal collection tracking.

  • Commercial business development and licensing into global consumer markets.

Stage

  • Pre-seed funding | Idea validation
