CONVENDUM transitions to Grale’s plastic-free bags across all offices

April 1, 2025

Grale continues its mission to combat plastic pollution by partnering with premium office space provider CONVENDUM. Starting in spring 2025, Grale’s plastic-free waste bags will be rolled out across all CONVENDUM locations as part of the company’s commitment to creating more sustainable and eco-friendly workplaces.

— “At CONVENDUM, we continuously develop our products and services with a strong focus on quality and environmental responsibility. We’re proud to collaborate with Grale to reduce our plastic usage and begin phasing out plastic bags,” says Susanne Johansson, Purchasing Manager at CONVENDUM.

The partnership between CONVENDUM and Grale (formerly PlasticFri) began in 2024, aimed at reducing plastic waste. Following a successful pilot, the collaboration is now expanding into a full-scale rollout across Sweden.

“We’re thrilled to expand our partnership with CONVENDUM. Their decision to use our plastic-free solutions across all their offices shows we share the same vision of a more sustainable future. Together, we can make a real difference and inspire others to make better choices,” says Allen Mohammadi, CEO and Co-founder of Grale.

Grale’s award-winning technology transforms natural, plant-based materials—such as agricultural waste and non-edible plants—into high-performance, fully compostable products. The solutions are as strong and durable as plastic but leave no harmful traces in the environment.

Since launching in 2018, Grale has gained global attention for its science-based innovation. The company has been named “World’s Most Innovative Sustainability Company” out of 1,400 global startups and was awarded the prestigious “Global Tech Innovator” prize. Its founders have been featured on the Forbes 30 Under 30 list and recognized by the Prince Daniel Fellowship for their entrepreneurial impact.

— “We’ve spent years developing breakthrough technology with the vision of a world free from plastic pollution. Collaborations like this one with CONVENDUM bring us one step closer to that future,” says Allen Mohammadi.
