Let\u2019s Reanimate Rattan
<\/div><\/h2>\n

The rediscovery of a bio-economic material: As part of the scope of the develoPPP.de programe, a funding program of the Federal Ministry for Economic Cooperation and Development (BMZ), we\u2019re working together with our Indonesian partner VIVERE Group and GIZ to boost sustainable rattan production for completely new industrial and design applications.\u200b<\/h2>\n

[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column_inner][vc_column_inner width=”1\/6″][\/vc_column_inner][\/vc_row_inner]

<\/div>[vc_row_inner gap=”30″][vc_column_inner width=”1\/2″][vc_column_text]In recent years rattan products have largely been replaced by products made from artificial materials. In Indonesia, the world\u2019s largest rattan producer, this has led to many small holder farmers losing their jobs. However, regarding innovative rattan products, there is a rising demand by future-oriented companies for sustainably produced, organic materials such as the Nature Tech material karuun\u00ae.\u200b<\/p>\n

As a natural raw material rattan is ideal not only because of its technical properties: is grows very fast and is harvested by local farmers in an environmentally friendly way. Rattan needs the rainforest in order to thrive, in contrast to other monocultures where areas of rainforest have to be cleared to allow cultivation.\u200b<\/p>\n

Reactivating the rattan market is therefore not only in the interest of VIVERE Group and karuun\u00ae but also offers the opportunity to generate income of smallholder farmers and to preserve the tropical rainforests through modern and sustainable land use and conservation models.\u200b[\/vc_column_text]
