Paint’R

Rethinking the packaging of paint. A sustainable user-centered alternative.

Pitch

We replace the outdated plastic paint bucket with a sustainable and ergonomically correct alternative. We have managed to land a formal collaboration with Flügger A/S. Utilizing their resources, we are developing a paint-bag, packaged in a user-friendly cardboard box. This solution emits 75% less CO2e during production and reduces the time the painter spends on preparing paint. A new EU waste legislation puts a fee on unsustainable packaging in 2025, giving us a price advantage. It is sustainable for the painters, the suppliers and the environment.
