Summary:
A young and aspiring, worldwide active Austrian company produces surfaces using various dried natural materials. As the demand for the company's products is increasing, the company seeks suppliers or distributors of dried plants and parts of plants, which are produced without using pesticides, in order to establish supplier or distribution services agreements. The aim of the agreements is to meet the increasing demand of the company's products and to mitigate the effects of harvest fluctuations.
Description:
The SME is located in the west of Austria and was founded in 2013 after several years of intensive research and development work. The company's vision is to use the natural surfaces it produces to help people interact more with nature, even in today's increasingly technological and fast-moving world.
The company produces surfaces on various carrier materials using pesticide-free, untreated and dried plants and parts of plants like petals, flower buds and hay. During the production process of the surfaces the used natural materials mostly retain their original characteristics with regard to their appearance, haptics and fragrance. Therefore, the produced surfaces bring nature into the client’s interiors and have positive effects on the well-being, body and mind of the latter.
The company’s surfaces are sold to traders and end costumers all over the world. Many awards and positive client’s feedback prove the company and its sustainable philosophy right.
The demand for the company's natural surfaces is constantly increasing. Therefore, and because the production of the surfaces is affected by high fluctuations due to the natural origin of the materials used (harvest, weather,…), the company is looking for reliable supplying or distribution partners. These partners should be able to supply the requested natural materials ideally in larger quantities and throughout the year.
However, it is important, that the plants and parts of plants supplied are produced without the use of pesticides, are untreated and dried.
