## About

Founded in 2017 and based in Lausanne, Switzerland, B'ZEOS Switzerland SA specializes in creating sustainable packaging solutions that utilize seaweed as a primary material. The company has focused on eco-friendly alternatives since its inception. It raised EUR 5 million in Seed funding on November 21, 2024, led by Faber Ventures, with participation from the International Chemical Investors Group.  B'ZEOS operates primarily in Europe and North America, aligning its operational strategy with regions that have a strong emphasis on sustainable packaging alternatives. The company was co-founded by Camilla Dore,  Adriana Ruiz Kyvik, and Guy Maurice.

B'ZEOS offers seaweed-based packaging solutions aimed at replacing traditional fossil fuel-derived materials. Their core offerings include bio-based, home-compostable packaging products designed to decompose naturally, leaving no trace in the environment. B'ZEOS targets various end-use cases, particularly in the food and beverage, cosmetics, and consumer goods sectors, where sustainable packaging is increasingly in demand. The company's solutions address the critical need for environmentally friendly alternatives to conventional plastic, with a strong emphasis on circular economy principles. B'ZEOS markets its products across several geographical regions, focusing on Europe and North America, where there is a growing push towards sustainability in packaging. 

B'ZEOS generates revenue primarily through direct sales and partnerships with businesses seeking sustainable packaging solutions. Their transaction structure includes relationships with both B2B clients, such as retailers and wholesalers, and direct-to-consumer sales for specific product lines. The pricing strategy is designed to cater to a range of customers by offering competitive rates for their flagship seaweed-based packaging products. B'ZEOS also engages in subscription models, allowing businesses to receive regular deliveries of their packaging solutions to support ongoing sustainability efforts. The revenue model reflects a commitment to facilitating a transition to eco-friendly materials across multiple sectors, aligning with the increasing demand for sustainable practices in packaging. 

B'ZEOS plans to utilize the EUR 5 million raised in its Seed funding round to enhance its technology, focusing on improving product quality and expanding its offerings. The company is designing new products that are expected to launch within the next year, although specific release dates have not been disclosed. Furthermore, B'ZEOS aims to expand into new markets, specifically targeting regions in Asia and South America by 2025, in response to the rising global demand for sustainable packaging solutions. These initiatives align with the company's strategy to increase its market presence and support sustainability efforts across diverse markets.
