Who we are
Patricia and Thomas – Our story
Patricia: “I originally worked in a different field. When I started looking into e-food, I quickly realized that sustainable solutions were needed for cold chain. Virtually every child knows that straw is a good insulating material. That’s how the idea for Landpack was born.”
Thomas: “As a mechanical engineer, I am fascinated by the automation of plants, the construction of factories, and the interaction between people, technology, and processes. Growing up on my parents’ farm, I was often found soldering in the technical basement rather than in the cowshed. Nevertheless, this allowed me to develop an understanding of agricultural issues and expertise in crop production and agricultural technology.”
