Phlit

At Phlit, we’re dedicated to accelerating the shift toward a sustainable future. Renewable energy sources like solar and wind are being adopted rapidly, but their unpredictability presents challenges. That’s where our IoT solution comes in. We use existing energy assets—such as wastewater pumps, heaters, fans and compressors—and, with our algorithm, turn them into virtual batteries that balance supply and demand in real time. This offers a sustainable alternative to traditional batteries while helping our customers save money and reduce their carbon footprint. We believe the future of energy is bright, and we’re excited to lead this transformation. Join us in creating a cleaner, more sustainable world!

RE-ZIP

What is RE-ZIP RE-ZIP is a circular packaging concept offering circular packaging to more or less all players in the ecommerce industry. By circulating and hence reusing rather than using single-use packaging (even recycled) we save CO2 even the first time a packaging is reused. It works likes this RE-ZIP delivers the packaging to webshops who offer the sustainable packing solution to their customers at check-out for a minor fee (paid back via reward voucher upon returning the packaging). Upon receipt of the goods the customer folds the RE-ZIP packaging to a return format and return it at a Drop Point. The packaging is returned to the RE-ZIP warehouse for cleaning and re-circulation to the webshops. The RE-ZIP packaging can be circulated up to 10 times, but more importantly the packaging will begin saving CO2 Within the first or second use – depending on the type. RE-ZIP has developed a state-of-the-art backend system supporting the above process and are currently operating in Denmark, UK and Poland. Hence working at RE-ZIP will offer you in-person colleagues in Denmark and remote colleagues in before mentioned countries and more to come. Working at RE-ZIP Working from the Danish RE-ZIP HQ you will find a bunch of nice new co-workers who appreciate to work from the office most days, because the energy we create together is important for us. That does not mean that you have to be here all day every day. You will have flexible working hours to accommodate your daily life. The atmosphere in the office is laid back and rather than working solo on projects and tasks we gather and combine our skills. Send us your application to come join us in our mission to change e-commerce packaging for good.
