Flexora

Flexora is a German-based startup that operates in the field of Industrial Internet of Things (IIoT) and energy efficiency. The company specializes in the production of flexible sensor foils that are designed to maximize resource efficiency in various industries. These sensor foils are capable of large-scale monitoring of physical parameters such as temperature and pressure, with up to 10,000 sensors per square meter.

Flexora's innovative product is particularly useful for industries such as wastewater, chemical, and paper, where it can help reduce overall energy consumption and chemical usage. The sensor foils digitize signals directly on the foil and automatically transfer data to the control system, providing real-time data over large areas. This technology can also support the digitalization of supply chains and infrastructure, and provide real-time data for digital twins, a virtual model of a process, product, or service.

The company's business model is based on selling these sensor foils to industrial clients who are looking to optimize their operations and reduce costs. The sensor foils are efficient due to their low material consumption and flexible design, and can be quickly and scalably produced through roll-to-roll manufacturing.

Flexora was founded as a spin-off from the Dresden Integrated Center for Applied Physics and Photonic Materials of the Technical University of Dresden. The startup is supported by the EXIST program funded by the German Federal Ministry for Economic Affairs and Energy and the European Social Fund.
