Join the DYCLE Team!
DYCLE aims to be one of the world's first fully zero-waste, systemic production companies for baby diapers. We are breaking new ground by developing a value chain with multiple income streams - producing high-quality ecological products at competitive prices while building a community along the way. This is innovation at all levels: from production to the product, to the relationships with parents and babies, and to healthy soil.
Our mission is to create a global network of decentralized diaper producers, each using their own local resources as material inputs for production. All parts of this network will collaborate together.
What we do
DYCLE is building communities around parents and babies, offering a 100% bio-based, and 100% compostable, diaper inlay. The inlays are collected within the community and transformed into high quality soil substrate. This soil substrate is then used to support the growth of newly planted fruit and nut trees, closing the loop in the cycle.
What We Offer
An international team with an innovative vision and great collaborative spirit is at the office of Atelier Gardens Berlin-Tempelhof.
There are lots of opportunities to network in the Berlin sustainability scene.
Implement one of the case studies of Blue Economy principles by Gunter Pauli.
Opportunity to contribute to a world without plastic diaper waste.
Who We Are Looking for
We welcome all practitioners who share our vision and want to be involved. Anyone who aligns with DYCLE's mission is welcome.
We are happy to listen to your talents and skills openly and figure out the best ways to get involved.
