EcoWrap Solutions, a student team from The Netherlands Hogeschool Inholland Alkmaar, has been named the national winner of the JA Company Program in The Netherlands and will represent the country at Gen-E 2025 in Athens, Greece.
EcoWrap Solutions convinced the judges with a breakthrough innovation that tackles one of the logistics sector’s biggest environmental challenges: plastic stretch film.

Designed to be durable, easy to use, and fully recyclable after years of use, these covers offer companies a smarter, more sustainable way to secure their loads while cutting waste and cost.
What truly sets EcoWrap apart is their bold vision for a future without plastic wrap. In a world where millions of pallets are still wrapped in disposable plastic every single day, this team offers a scalable solution that reduces pollution at the source.
