Industrifonden investment director Anna Haupt stated: \u201cYangi\u2019s dry forming technology uses paper fibre in an extremely efficient manner and has the potential to compete with plastic in cost per unit.<\/p>\n

\u201cA low unit cost is necessary to transform the packaging industry and reduce the plastic mountains piling up on land and in our oceans.\u201d<\/p>\n

Yangi\u2019s Cellera technology is already validated and available for industrial use, providing an option for customers interested in adopting paper dry forming.<\/p>\n

This solution aims to supply packaging manufacturers and brands with a scaleable, renewable substitute for fossil-based plastics.<\/p>\n

The initial machine has been sold to a converter in Europe, and the first products utilising Yangi\u2019s fibre technology were distributed to clients in Asia at the end of 2024.<\/p>\n

Almi Invest investment manager Erik Madeyski Bengtson stated: \u201cAt Almi Invest GreenTech, we look for companies that combine strong climate impact with the ability to scale globally.<\/p>\n

\u201cYangi has shown not only technological readiness, but also a business model that makes the transition from plastic to fibre realistic for packaging producers.<\/p>\n

\u201cThat combination of innovation and practicality is why we believe Yangi can become a key player in building a more sustainable industry.\u201d<\/p>\n

Based in Varberg, Sweden, Yangi leverages more than ten years of experience in dry forming.<\/p>\n

Yangi\u2019s investor group also includes existing shareholders such as Voith, Chanel, FutureLab & Partners and Turret.<\/p>\n
