LATVIA: “The Visual Identity of the Container is as Central to the Product as its Technical Function”
Latvia's Carbon Less Future registers CLF design as IP, named DesignEuropa finalist
Carbon Less Future, the Latvian climate technology company focused on scalable reforestation, has been named a top-threefinalist in the DesignEuropa Awards 2026, in the Entrepreneurs and Small Companies category. The EU Intellectual Property Office (EUIPO) competition received entries from more than 1,600 participants across 52 countries, and the nomination marks the first time a Latvian company has reached this stage in the DesignEuropa Awards.
The company registered the design of its CLF vertical growing container with the EUIPO ahead of broader commercial expansion. The jury described the container as a modular, decentralised system designed to support local tree cultivation in controlled environments, contributing to environmental awareness and community engagement. "The visual identity of the container is as central to the product as its technical function," says Aigars Jacuks, COO and Co-Founder.
