Who we are
Patricia and Thomas – Our story
Patricia: ‘I am a career changer. When I started working in the e-food sector, it quickly became clear to me that a sustainable solution for the cold chain was needed – Every child knows that straw is a good insulating material. And so the idea for Landpack was born.’
Thomas: ‘As a mechanical engineer, I am fascinated with plant automation, the construction of factories and people interacting, technology and processes. That’s why as a young lad on my parents’ farm I was seen soldering in the engineering cellar more often than in the cowshed. Nevertheless, I gained the feeling for agricultural issues, the expertise in plant cultivation and agricultural technology.’
