Important results from the project
A further developed solution that enables depositing of packaging (in Swedish: pantning) at curb-side collections, and allows us to reach a larger target group, attract new customers and investors.
Expected long term effects
The project has resulted in a new feature in the PantaPå app that allows users to add private recycling stations that are not already installed in the app (e.g. environmental rooms) and start depositing packaging at these stations. This feature has enabled us to reach a much broader target group of users as well as increased the interest of brand owners to connect their products to our solution.
Approach and implementation
The project has been executed according to plan and been divided into three main activities: 1. Development of a prototype for depositing packaging at curb-side collections. 2. Testing and evaluation of prototype. 3. Revision of prototype.
