    Our Mission

    We build and run the systems that get materials back into industry. Neutral infrastructure, like the power grid: used by everyone, owned by none of them. We don't buy or sell materials ourselves: no competing interest.

    Founded in 2020 in Munich. Bootstrapped from the first order to 70+ recycling customers.

    Operating Principles

    Neutrality

    We're the infrastructure layer, not a market participant. We enable fair, transparent transactions for all stakeholders.

    Transparency

    Every material flow, every handoff, every certificate: documented and traceable.

    Impact

    We measure success by materials recovered, emissions avoided, and circular loops closed.

    Our Vision

    Connecting OEMs, recyclers, material producers, and dismantlers in one neutral platform

    "We're building the first platform that connects every stakeholder in the circular economy. It is the next major infrastructure layer for sustainable industry."

    Aron Handreke, Co-Founder & CEO

    Just as the power grid connects decentralized energy producers and consumers, ContainerGrid connects fragmented actors in the circular economy, forming one coordinated system.
