## About

Based in Aachen, Germany, IonKraft GmbH is focused on developing plasma-enhanced vapor deposition coatings for plastic packaging. Montgomery Jaritz and Bene Heuer are the co-founders of the company. In November 2024, IonKraft GmbH raised EUR 3.5 million in venture funding co-led by M Ventures, TechVision Fund, and High-Tech-Gründerfonds.

IonKraft GmbH specializes in plasma-based coatings that enhance the recyclability of plastic packaging while providing robust barrier properties. The firm’s core product is a plasma-enhanced vapor deposition coating, applied to plastic packaging containers to create a strong barrier against gases and liquids. This technology transforms monomaterial containers into viable alternatives to non-recyclable multimaterial systems. IonKraft's offerings target various industries requiring sustainable packaging solutions, focusing on clients committed to environmentally responsible practices, primarily in Europe, with growing interest in global markets.

IonKraft's revenue model centers on B2B partnerships with manufacturers and packaging firms to integrate its proprietary coating technology.

The organization plans to use the November 2024 funding to prepare for market entry and scale production.
