It will be located at Gro\u00dfmoorbogen in the Harburg district of Hamburg. Founders Anne Lamp and Johanna Baare and their team are taking over the existing building from the previous owner, the long-standing Wedemann bakery.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"the-start-of-production-is-planned-for-2025\">The start of production is planned for 2025<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>The building covers an area of around 4,000 square meters. An annual production volume of several thousand tons of traceless granulate is planned, with production set to start in 2025. For the first regular market entry, traceless has already concluded initial purchase agreements with European brand owners and processors. The plan is to expand the production team to around 90 people, which would create about forty new jobs for traceless. The construction of the plant is made possible by the financing round in September 2023 in the amount of\u00a0<a rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" href=\"https:\/\/startupcity.hamburg\/news-events\/news\/36-6-million-for-traceless-materials-in-series-a-round\" target=\"_blank\">36.6 million euros<\/a>\u00a0and a good\u00a0<a rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" href=\"https:\/\/startupcity.hamburg\/news-events\/news\/traceless-receives-millions-in-funding-from-the-ministry-for-the-environment\" target=\"_blank\">5 million euros<\/a>\u00a0from a funding program of the German Federal Ministry for the Environment.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The traceless material is a natural plastic substitute that is obtained from plant waste from the agricultural industry. It is renewable, certified plastic-free, bio-based and home-compostable. According to the company, 91% of CO<sub>2<\/sub> emissions are saved in production and disposal compared to plastic thanks to a resource-saving process. traceless produces the material in the form of granulate, which can be further processed into cast parts, flexible films or coatings. The material can replace plastic in products that are difficult to recycle or often end up as waste in the environment &#8211; from disposable products and rigid and flexible packaging to paper and cardboard coatings.<\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"alignleft is-resized\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/startupcity.hamburg\/img\/containers\/images\/pages\/traceless_AnneLamp_Marc-Schultz-Coulon-slider.jpg\/ecc10111927838e29fca3d582368b243.jpg\" alt=\"Anne Lamp, co-founder and CEO of traceless\" style=\"aspect-ratio:1;width:149px;height:auto\"\/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">Anne Lamp, co-founder and CEO of traceless<\/figcaption><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n<blockquote class=\"wp-block-quote is-layout-flow wp-block-quote-is-layout-flow\">\n<p>\u201cThis location is a real stroke of luck for us.
