UNDA is more than a drinking bottle. UNDA is unique because of its pure ecological design and dual-use: It´s a bottle, it’s a cup, and a box – so you can store drinks and food at the same time. The fact that all four parts of the UNDA are made of polypropylene and the sealing ring can be dismantled without special tools makes the UNDA lightweight, easy to use, heat-resistant, and 100% recyclable. In addition, it comes with a band and is comfortable to carry. All this combined makes UNDA a great companion for a sustainable lifestyle, helping avoid disposable bottles and cups.

Vattenfall, one of Europe’s largest producers and retailers of electricity and heat, is on a mission to make fossil-free living a reality. Their approach is to combine green energy supply with groundbreaking, transformational ideas. Ideas that will fundamentally change transport, industries, and heating.

You can see how this works at the GREENTECH Festival: For example, by having a look at the CLEANEST DIRT BIKE ever. A project brought to life by Vattenfall and its partner CAKE, a Swedish maker of premium lightweight electric motorcycles. The idea here is to create a stunning electric motorbike and remove CO2 from each link in the supply chain while building it.

The more wind turbines age, the more recycling them becomes an issue. Especially rotor blades, with their composite materials, pose a tough challenge. Wings for Living, a young start-up, has an ingenious solution. They simply use old rotor blades’ rugged, high-quality material to make outdoor furniture. So after serving for 25 years or more to supply green energy, the blades can retire as chairs, benches, or tables.

At the GREENTECH FESTIVAL, you can see how good this looks and how much CO2 can be saved by simply giving a complex material a new use.
