Helsinki-based startup Ambio raised €5.1 million in seed funding to streamline recycled plastics procurement with an AI-powered platform. Co-founders Tommi Bergström and Elmo Pakkanen aim to improve trust, reliability and speed in sourcing, assessing and trading recycled plastics. The fragmented supply and inconsistent quality of recycled plastics is a major hurdle in the market, with 50,000 companies using plastics as raw materials in the EU, compared to approximately 1,500 recycling them.
Ambio addresses these challenges by providing a structured dataset of recycled plastics suppliers and their available materials, using AI to match materials to manufacturers' specific requirements.
