Flow Loop

Flow Loop has developed a shower panel that is able to save up to 85% water and energy while providing a better flow than a standard shower.The savings are achieved by constantly micro-filtering, UV-purifying and recirculating shower water directly from the existing shower floor.Because the system is plug&play it is easy to retro-fit in existing bathrooms. The self-cleaning micro-filters ensure low maintenance. The high flow of recirculated water ensures higher comfort with a clean conscious. Dedicated team of 5, who enjoy both common lunch, "hygge", and afternoon cake as well as getting out of the office to go on field trips to validate assumptions and challenge ourselves and eachother - both professionally as well as socially with games nights etc.

Incremental Maritime A/S

Incremental Maritime is developing a digital compliance solution that helps shipowners and operators navigate complex decarbonization regulations; transforming compliance into lower emissions and higher margins. Our deep regulatory expertise, data-driven models, and hands-on client support are what set us apart. Global shipping faces an accelerating tide of climate regulation, from the IMO’s GHG Fuel Intensity targets to FuelEU Maritime and EU ETS. These rules impact everything: fuel costs, asset values, and day-to-day operations. Yet most market players lack the tools and insights to respond; let alone turn compliance into an advantage. This leaves shipowners and operators asking: - What decarbonization investments make financial sense? - How do I reduce risk and avoid penalties? - Can I stay compliant across multiple regimes without extra complexity? - Without smart tools, these questions are hard to answer - and costly to get wrong. Our solution has two core parts: Advisory with immediate impact: We help clients assess regulatory costs, model emissions, evaluate investment cases, and support decision-making from planning to operations. A digital compliance agent (in development): Built on real client work, this tool will combine - Real-time emissions tracking - Cross-jurisdictional compliance logic - Commercial impact analysis - Support from pre-fixture to post-voyage We’re building the go-to compliance engine for modern shipping: one that simplifies decisions, protects margins, and scales with regulation. We launched Incremental Maritime because we saw a blind spot: climate regulation was outpacing the industry’s ability to respond and the result was confusion, cost, and missed opportunity. With experience spanning maritime operations and regulatory systems, we knew we could help. We believe that smarter compliance is not a burden, it’s a pathway to performance. We're here to equip shipping with the tools to decarbonize profitably, one fixture, one voyage, one regulation at a time.

GLYON

GLYON is developing a CO₂-powered textile-to-textile recycling technology to help brands, fiber producers, and recyclers solve the growing textile waste crisis with a breakthrough chemical recycling process that turns waste into virgin-quality raw materials for new fibers—without fossil fuels. We address the massive problem of textile waste, a global crisis where over 92 million tonnes of textile waste are discarded each year—most of it ending up in landfills or incinerated. This contributes to major pollution issues but also forces the textile industry to continue its dependence on virgin fossil-based materials. Our solution targets fiber producers, brands, and recyclers who need circular raw material solutions. Our CO₂-based chemical recycling process breaks down polyester textiles into building blocks and leaves other fibers like cotton intact. Both PET building blocks and cotton can be used to produce new, high-quality fibers without the need for virgin oil and reducing water consumption and CO₂ emissions.
