The story behind KIUD

KIUD  (formerly Low imPACK) was founded by two female entrepreneurs, Kaie & Liis, who share a mutual pain for the fashion industry’s impact on the environment. Namely the piling landfills of the textile waste.

 

KIUD’s mission is to disrupt the wood-based packaging industry by transforming discarded textile waste into novel packaging material.

 

The concept behind KIUD packaging has won several awards:

  • “The Company of the Future” by SEB bank (2023)
  • 2nd runner up finalist for “The Most Innovative Product Concept” by JTI’s Collaboration Track (2023)
  • TOP3 finalist at Prototron Green (2022)
  • Creative Industries Pitching Award at sTARTUp Day (2022).
