Disrupt In the mid 1990’s we experimented with the idea of bonding wood together by temporarily melting a thermoplastic plug so that it was absorbed into the porous structure of the wood. After much scientific, material and business development this simple idea has enabled the founding of two companies and has brought about a radical change in surgical procedures for repairing bones and teeth. www.woodwelding.com www.spinewelding.com
		Discover After helping one of our clients to develop a new mixing and dispensing system we were inspired to explore how an adapted version of the system might be used for a radically different application. Recognising the environmental need to reduce water consumption, we developed an efficient solution for mixing and dispensing soap and water. The resulting product enables highly effective hand washing with a minimal amount of water. In 2010 we spun off a start-up company to commercialise this technology. www.smixin.com
		Improve When Creaholic was established, in 1986, one of our very first clients was TetraPak. In the subsequent twenty-plus years they have continued to be one of our most valued clients, and we have completed over 80 projects together. These projects have included many new concepts, technologies and improvements for their products and production systems.
