Revenue Model

Through the sale of timber, consulting services, recyclability studies, and investors

Target Market

Businesses, real estate, construction, mining, and the public sector in Peru

Social Impact

People Living in Extreme Poverty

Demand Evidence

We have been researching the market for two years from our headquarters in Peru.

Competitors

Founder Expertise

Experience in the circular economy and B2B/B2G business development; management of sustainable projects, partnerships with companies and the public sector, and validation of wood-plastic composite solutions in Chile and Peru.
