We are Kartent and we love cardboard!
Meet the team
Timo Krenn
Timo is a shrewd multi-talent and enthusiastic polyglot. He started at the large firm PWC, but the suit was too tight and cardboard boxes were more his thing. Now he gets to play with cardboard every day!
☕️ The best thing is a (black) coffee that someone else makes for you.
Sam Steins Bisschop
Would you like to know which type of cardboard is best to use? How cardboard can take your company to the next level? Or do you just want to know how many flutes are in a sheet of corrugated cardboard? Sam can help you with (almost) all questions! Sam is always up for a game of hockey (at a high level).
☕️ Sam also prefers to drink an espresso.
Cas den Braber
Having a chat with Cas is always dangerous, because before you know it, you've already bought another piece of cardboard at a special friends' price. Many colleagues have already experienced it! His sales pitches are as smooth as cardboard, which means he has already convinced many to embrace a new cardboard reality!
☕️ His favorite coffee? Just black.
Jan Portheine
Jan is an entrepreneur through and through. Once trained as an architect, he now prefers cardboard. In his free time, he enjoys lacing up his skates or hitting a hockey ball.
☕️ He prefers cappuccinos with a little sugar.
Sylvia Ko
Sylvia ensures that our cardboard designs are always of the highest quality! With a steady hand, she draws clean lines, whether on the computer or with a utility knife. With Sylvia, your cardboard is definitely in good hands!
☕️ She prefers an espresso macchiato.
Myrthe van Rijnsoever
From clean lines to playful colours: Myrthe transforms a blank page into the complete picture. She loves colourful, striking designs and enjoys collaborating with you to bring them to life.
️ ☕️ You'll recognise her by the scent of... yes, oat milk in her coffee. Because regular milk? That doesn't fit her style.
Lisette Schoonderbeek
DTP
After a detour outside of the DTP field, Lisette is completely back in her element. When the puzzle of lines, colors, and shapes perfectly aligns, her day is made. She finds the car ride to Amsterdam a bit boring, but she'd happily ride her motorcycle to the office.
☕️ A coffee in the morning is a must, but to truly enjoy it, she prefers a latte macchiato.
Charlotte Buts
Ever wondered why we’re experiencing such incredible growth? Well, it’s because we have a ‘growth hacker’ on our team! Charlotte is the secret, a true team player! She loves beautiful nature and therefore wants to travel around the world at least 5 times.
☕️ Charlotte prefers to drink a cappuccino with her colleagues.
Sophie Deelstra
Whether it's a newsletter, (team) photos, or a social media post, Sophie handles it with ease! With an eye for detail and a quick pen, she keeps everything running smoothly. After work, she loves to lace up her running shoes to clear her head and get new ideas.️
☕️ Her favorite energy boost? A cappuccino or, if permitted, an espresso martini!
Anniek Verfaille
After internships at various media companies, Anniek swapped glossy magazine paper for sustainable cardboard. She immerses herself in the different aspects of marketing: from photography and writing to contributing ideas on strategies. In her free time, she regularly goes for a run or can be found on the tennis court. She doesn't like to lose, so she is certainly an enthusiastic competitor.
☕️ She prefers cappuccinos, perhaps a little too many.
Freek
Office Dog & Chief Happiness Officer
Freek is, without a doubt, our most important hire. Whether you have a deadline, need to go into a meeting, or are just having an off day: Freek is always ready for a cuddle.
You often find him in the middle of the office, strategically positioned where he can get the most attention. His work? It mainly involves team spirit, camaraderie, and testing who will succumb to his puppy-dog eyes today.
☕️ His favorite drink? A puppychino, of course.
Dennis Bakker
Product creation
Dennis is our support and confidant in the warehouse; every product you receive has passed through his hands! Despite his typically Dutch name, Dennis was born and raised in Spain, which is why he regularly surprises us with delicious Spanish snacks.
☕️ He likes to kick a ball and prefers a beer to coffee.
Koen Hobbelink
Product creation
Is heavy metal coming from the warehouse? Do you hear someone screaming in the distance? Are there smoke clouds drifting past the windows? Then it could be that Koen is doing some serious work! Don't be put off by his wild appearance, because Koen has a character as soft as cardboard!
☕️ His coffee taste is like his music taste: Nice and black.
Mike Molenaar
Product creation
Mike traded his car for a bicycle and ended up amidst the cardboard. In the warehouse, he ensures that everything runs smoothly. That's a good thing because with his many years of experience as a DJ, he knows exactly how to do that! On weekends, he trades the cardboard for turntables and gets behind the decks. In the office, he provides at least as much entertainment, because the best jokes (usually) come from Mike.
☕️ Mike prefers a cappuccino with sugar.
Bo Lambrecht
Bo started as a product design intern, but he felt so at home amongst the cardboard that he never left. Now he combines his studies with working in the warehouse, where he is up for any task. From building exhibition stands to delivering orders by van, Bo handles it all with ease. As a football fan, he's right at home next to the Johan Cruijff Arena.
☕️ His fuel? A delicious flat white!
Yara de Waard
All-rounder
Yara is our quiet force in the warehouse. When it suits her, she comes to help out for a few days a week! Chores that we don't get around to ourselves? There's a good chance Yara will pick them up, because she loves to try new things. She doesn't sit still for long: whether she's exercising, at a party, or walking her dog.
☕️ Despite being from Amsterdam, she prefers to drink a cappuccino with cow's milk!
