Founder Testimonials

Together with K+S, we managed to take many important steps in our joint development project. In times of uncertain economic times, we believe this is something truly unique. This shows the commitment of all parties and people involved. We are now entering a critical phase of product validation and are convinced to bring the project over the finish-line in the upcoming months!
