The idea originated in the summer of 2014 when Zubin, the current founder of Dörrwerk, met with our friend Raphael. The two school friends discussed food waste in our society. Shortly afterward, Zubin conceived the idea for the company. After extensive testing, the first fruit paper made from 100% fruits and vegetables was produced. The produce is pureed, laid out to dry, and after 12 hours, the 100% fruit edible paper is ready. The drying process takes place at a low temperature to preserve the vitamins and minerals in the food. This crispy snack is also available in our online shop in various flavors, such as apple, mango, and pineapple.

After realizing the extent of food waste, Zubin enlisted the help of his friends Jonas and Philipp. Now there are five of them, they have already saved over 65,000 kg of fruit and vegetables, and are therefore working entirely in our best interests.

We always welcome collaborations with other companies that share our mission. Even though the food wasn't directly rescued by us, we didn't want to deprive you of this delicious snack. That's why we're happy to make this small exception.
