In this podcast episode we had the opportunity to talk with Fridolin from Holypoly, a startup focused on revolutionizing the plastic recycling industry, by ending plastic destruction and keeping them in the cycle. And Holypoly already does that by working with big brands like Bosch, Lamy, NUK or Mattel.
The conversation spans various topics, from Fridolin's personal experiences and travels in East Africa that exposed him to the harsh realities of climate change and its impact on communities, to the challenges of sourcing recycled materials and competing with low-cost virgin plastics.
Additionally, the company's growth and the shift from a startup to a scale-up are also being discussed, with Fridolin highlighting their plans for expansion, including a crowdinvesting campaign which aims to enable small investors to invest in the economic potential of the circular economy.

Overall, our discussion provides valuable insights into the practical aspects and challenges of sustainability in the recycling industry, emphasizing transparency, resilience, and technological advancements. Especially, since Holypoly's growth plans underscore the increasing relevance of sustainability in addressing global challenges like climate change and waste management.
