The purpose with this project was to invent a product that secures buildings sewer systems against rats. The problem was presented to us by a local building maintainer in Halmstad, who had experienced big problems with rats in his real estate. The project has been carried out by Per Johansson, Robert Lidén and Niclas Nilsson under our own auspices. We are primarily sponsored by AMLI Business Partner but also by Innvationsgruppen, Halmstad Fastighets AB and Anticimex. To be able to secure a whole building with only one product we came to the conclusion that the product must be placed in the horizontal sewer pipe that connects with the municipal sewer system. Our goal was to invent a product that prevent rats from passing and at the same time not affect the water flow. We have succeeded in meeting our goal and can in this report present a well functioning product named RatStop. We have confirmed the market and can see a high potential in the product. The problem is big in Sweden and enormous worldwide. The project group has to find sponsors for production, marketing and further development of complementing concepts. Therefore we now search for business partners. We have used dynamic product development and all the tools combined with it during the development. Especially meetings with competent persons have given us much, like insight in the market, facts in different subjects and feedback on our idea and product. We have learned a lot and we will benefit from this in the future. We believe in our product and we will continue to work with it under the newly started company, Ratcon. Hopefully our product will be available on the market within a year.
