ABOUT US
ÜBER UNS

Our motivated founding team consists of long-time friends Nils Bachmann, Sophia Scherer, Lisa Antonie Scherer and Henning Tschunt and combines different professional backgrounds, experience and expertise. We are united by the conviction that business has a serving function within society. Together we pursue the mission of establishing ecologically and economically sensible packaging solutions.

We are united in our desire to make a proactive contribution to preserving the natural foundations of life - the prerequisites for our economic activity. This is why our name PROSERVATION is a neologism that alludes to our basic motivation by combining the English terms ‘preservation’ and ‘pro’ (for; advantage; but also: professional/proactive). Since its foundation in November 2022, the PROSERVATION team has grown to seven employees. We want to continue to offer young talents a meaningful workplace with fair conditions.

Our mission statement & values

Our vision is a world in which all packaging is ecologically sound. We are united by the conviction that business has a serving function within society. 

We fundamentally reject growth as an end in itself. By focusing on regional value creation, we bypass global competition in terms of time, cost and quality. Instead, we think in terms of local cooperation and look for genuine synergies for the environment and society.

Verpacken mit Vernunft

PROSERVATION’s mission is to establish ecologically and economically sound packaging solutions. We want to identify opportunities for change and combine the protection of packaged goods with the protection of our natural livelihoods. That is why, from the very beginning, we attach particular importance to ensuring that the change in business we want to stand for follows a coherent and consistent set of values.

OUR APPROACH

Packaging with reason.

For a world in which all packaging is ecologically sound.

PROSERVATION’s mission is to establish ecologically as well as economically sound packaging solutions. With our approach of developing sustainable and plastic-free cushioning packaging made from plant residues, we aim to identify opportunities for change, reduce environmental impact and combine the protection of packaged goods with the protection of our natural livelihoods. In doing so, our business activities are guided by the following four principles. To learn more about them, simply click on the icons:

Bioeconomy is the ecological counterpart to the fossil economy and dispenses with the use of petroleum-based plastics. The aim is to achieve a more sustainable form of production and consumption that is oriented towards natural material cycles and based on the efficient use of biogenic resources such as plants, animals and microorganisms.

RECOU represents a bioeconomic alternative to existing materials such as Styrofoam, as it consists of 100% purely plant-based ingredients and biodegrades easily after its use as a packaging padding material.

Instead of always needing something new and continuing to process fossil raw materials for new plastic packaging in an energy-intensive way, our organic packaging material RECOU consists of largely unused plant residues. The starting material for our packaging is grain husks, the wrappings of cereal grains, which are already produced daily in large quantities during local grain processing. This means that no additional land or resources are required and no additional trees are felled.

Even when developing our manufacturing process or equipping our business infrastructure, we are guided by the basic principle of drawing inspiration from across the industry and using what already exists wherever possible.

Our aim is to strengthen regional added value and primary production and thus increase our independence from international supply and production conditions. We cooperate with local spelt mills in the region and would like to reduce the necessary transport routes to a minimum in the future through the most decentralized production possible.

RECOU should be used as long as possible for the respective application and kept in the cycle. After the use phase as packaging material, our material can be reprocessed as a new feedstock in the existing process and reused for further applications such as board and insulation material. Since RECOU consists of purely plant-based ingredients, it biodegrades without any problems and can also be disposed of in garden waste, compost or the organic waste garbage can.

Our Impact

We see ourselves as part of a new generation of companies that strives for real change and wants to contribute to achieving the goals of sustainable development through its business activities. That is why it is very important to us to closely interlink our business model with our impact model and to communicate it transparently.

We are aware that a serious, quantitative impact measurement of the socio-ecological benefits of our products is a constant process of continuous optimization. To begin with, we would like to start with the following key figures:

Substituted plastic packaging (in liter)
11.300+ l
550.000 l
Upcycling of the residual material grain husks (in kg)
1.350+ kg
85.000 kg

Our impact model was
developed in collaboration
with LOOM IMPACT.

Through our actions, we want to make our contribution to achieving the SDGs:

Our network

We are aware that a change in economic activity in favor of a future worth living is only possible with united forces. Since the pre-founding phase, we have been active in various value-related initiatives and have built up an extensive, cooperative network. Not facing the coming challenges alone gives us a sense of security. We are grateful and welcome any help, because we know that different perspectives will improve the quality of our strategic decisions.
