Olaf Vermeulen – The upcycling story of coffee grounds, from coffee to polymer

Olaf Vermeulen Founded OVDesigns in 2016 as a design agency with the goal to create a sustainable future with its products. Soon OVDesigns started the development of biopolymers based on coffee grounds. Olaf wants to make a change in the polymer industry by stimulating the use of biobased and recycled materials in mass production to reduce the carbon footprint and the need for fossil fuels.
