CEO & co-Inventor, TygaTrax
Nadine Cino is a LEED AP, is the co-founder and co-Inventor of Tyga-Box Systems and Tyga Technologies, and has served as CEO for both companies since inception. A patent-holder of several inventions, related to the moving, storage, electronic tracking and packaging fields, Nadine focuses on creating business opportunities based on the principle of re-use.
The TygaBox business model of is that of renting a reusable moving system to replace cardboard boxes resulting in a reduction of moving costs by 30% and waste-to-landfill by 100%. No trees are cut down and no waste is created. In fact, to date, TygaBox has diverted over 500,000,000 lbs of cardboard from landfills and saved 50,000,000 trees – powerful impacts from a simple box.
The TygaTrax model of reuse is the same conceptually and different in execution. It’s business purpose is to provide mobile RFID tracking and security for any item at anytime from anywhere resulting in mitigating the risks of loss, security and underutilization. The overarching sustainability principal is re-use, in this case, to encourage asset owners to re-use their assets by renting, sharing or bartering through our automated, accountable and transparent platform. Increasing re-us will decrease the unnecessary consumption of planetary resources, and help us all become better global citizens.
