- Cafea SilverskinCoffee Based developed a bio-based granule consisting of silverskin and a biopolymer. The silverskin separates from the coffee bean during the roasting process. To prevent this valuable material from going to waste, Coffee Based recycles them into bio-based granules which are lighter in colour than the coffee grounds materials.
- Arabica Black (food safe)Coffee Based developed 3 different bio-based granules consisting of coffee grounds and a biopolymer. From coffee cups and notebook covers to plant pots and coffee panels, the ‘Arabica Black’ coffee granules are suitable for many product applications.
- Coffee PanelsThese coffee panels are composite materials produced from coffee grounds and a biopolymer, polyactic acid or polylactide (PLA). Due to the characteristics of the materials used, these coffee composites have similar properties to MDF and may be machined by various techniques such as CNC, acquiring numerous forms and geometries reliefs. Coffee PLA composites are 100% biodegradable.
- Touch of Nature, walking on CoffeeCoffee grounds get a new lease of life for another 20 years as a seamless floor when mixed into a bio-based resin that can be processed at room temperature. The bio based resin is based on lin seed oil, and other fillers like fruit residues. This seamless floors comes in a matte finish and has a closed and resilient surface.
- Coffee polymerCoffee polymer is a material consisting of 30% coffee grounds and 70 other biobased raw materials. The Espresso Polymer is dishwasher-proof and biodegrades only in controlled circumstances. The Cappuccino Polymer is fully biodegradable in natural circumstances in about one year. The Americano Polymer biodegrades in about two months.
- Re-Yut-Cel – Felt from Recycled Coffee SacksRe-Yut-Cel is a collaborative material initiative that transforms discarded jute coffee sacks into a durable, biobased felt for interior and design applications. Jute coffee sacks, typically used once for transporting coffee beans, are commonly incinerated after use. The felt is suitable for acoustic panels, lampshades, mattress fillings, and other interior elements.
- Coffee Waste TilesCoffee Waste Tiles are made from locally collected coffee grounds bound with natural bio-resins. The material celebrates the tactile warmth and depth of roasted coffee, evoking sensory and visual connection to its origin. Each tile is handcrafted, with variations in tone and surface revealing the natural irregularities of the material.
- Coffee to Burn pelletsCoffee to Burn pellets are pellets made from waste materials: coffee grounds and sawdust (collected at companies and sawmills). The coffee grounds are dried and mixed with the sawdust, before they are pressed into pellets. The pellets have a higher caloric value than ordinary pellets, emitting more heat, and contain 25 % more energy than other pellets, saving fuel and decreasing CO2 emissions.
- Coffee Composite 1This is a mouldable biobased material made from spent coffee grounds, coffee husk, potato starch, glycerine and water. This recipe makes it easy to create 3D shapes that hold their form well. It is pressed into 3D printed moulds and dried using a dehydrator.
- Coffee Composite 2This material is a sturdy, biobased mixture made entirely from organic waste such as spent coffee grounds, casein – a milk protein and water. It is pressed into moulds and dried using a dehydrator, without any chemical additives. The result is a strong, natural sheet material, perfect for creating flat (2D) shapes.
- S.Café coffee fabricS.Café is made from a combination of coffee grounds and polyester. In a low-temperature, high-pressure and energy saving process, the coffee grounds are combined with the polyester yarn surface, changing the characteristics of the filament and adding properties like fast-drying, UV-protection and odour control.
- Morning RitualMorning Ritual is a series of biodegradable containers made of coffee grounds and newspaper waste. After coffee ground waste is collected from local coffee shops, it is mixed with newspaper pulp and a natural binding agent. The mixture is moulded by hand.
- DecaféDecafé is a composite material made from heat and pressure treated coffee grounds. 80 °C temperature heat resistance, fireproof, non-conductive and strong enough to sand are some of Decafé’s material attributes. This material naturally also features the distinctive aroma of coffee.
- Re-TileRe-Tile is a collection of wall tiles developed by OVPolymers using a composite material based on recycled plastic and spent coffee grounds. Designed for interior wall applications, the tiles demonstrate how post-consumer and organic waste streams can be transformed into durable architectural products.
- BioCaifBioCaif is a composite material consisting of ground coffee waste and a bio-polymer, Polylactic Acid (PLA). Due to constant growth within the coffee industry, the problem of waste is growing in conjunction with it. BioCaif is a 100% biodegradable material that is a sustainable solution to a growing problem.
- Biobased Acoustic Materials from Organic ResiduesA series of acoustic tile developments explore the use of plant fibres and organic by-products as primary material components. The tiles are designed for interior applications and combine renewable fibres, residual biomass and mineral additives within composite systems intended to provide sound absorption and structural stability. The versions shown are seaweed and cotton, coffee, coconut fibres, jute, and grape pomace.
- DenuoDenuo is a revolutionary material made from a unique blend of agrifood waste, including coffee, spent grain, and pomace. This eco-friendly material is perfect for 3D printing, making it a game-changer in sustainable manufacturing. By repurposing coffee grounds, hemp stalks, and tobacco leaves that would otherwise be discarded, Highsociety Studio is creating an environmentally friendly and socially responsible product.
- CoffireCOFFIRE introduces an innovative porcelain surface finishing technique that uses spent coffee grounds as a sustainable colouring material, mimicking the textures of marble in a mass production setting.
- Biofold acoustic panelBioFold is inspired by the abundance of wasted natural fibers derived from plants, primarily jute and cotton. It upcycles discarded textile streams of jute burlap coffee bags and denim products. Biofold combines these wastestreams with a biobased non-mineral oil plastic (PLA) that is compostable. Combining origami and digital production techniques transforms BioFold into a sensory architectural product that plays with light, shadow and perception.
- ARCHISONIC® CottonCottonTex represents a unique approach to the sustainable use of materials. The first type features a standard ARCHISONIC® Cotton layer, offering a refined finish. The second type presents a rawer aesthetic. Both varieties are united by their composition, a blend of 60% cellulose and 40% recycled textiles. A product of the Impact Lab, Impact Acoustics' in-house experimental materials research.
- Eco RangeGiles Miller Studio has collaborated with material design studio HighSociety to offer Giles Miller Studio's signature tile designs in a new eco-friendly material range. The collection is crafted with by-products of wine, hemp, coffee, tobacco, garlic and vodka (charcoal) production. These by-products are collected from small local businesses and then formed into Giles Miller Studio's signature ‘Fin’ and ‘Penny’ tiles.
- BrickbinThe BrickBin is a sustainable waste bin of made of your own recycled plastic for separate collection of waste. Produced in the Netherlands from…
- Crush paperCrush is an eco-friendly range of papers by Favini, made by replacing up to 15% of virgin tree pulp with the process residues of organic products. Crush paper includes by-products from citrus fruits, grapes, cherries, lavender, corn, olives, coffee, kiwi fruits, hazelnuts and almonds. These natural raw materials are saved from landfill and used to make these distinctive and vivid papers.
