    Espresso Supply Chain Transformed with Sustainable Skincare Ingredients and Coffee Fiber Polypropylene.

    Welcome to Coffeeco, where we're committed to reducing waste and promoting sustainability through innovative solutions. We recognize the coffee industry's significant waste issue, with espresso accounting for just 1% of the coffee fruit and the remaining 99% going to waste. The average person generates 50 grams of coffee waste daily, equivalent to 0.0935 kg of CO2e.

    Skincare with Microbiome-Friendly Ingredients:

    We collect used coffee grounds from cafes and repurpose them for skincare products. Coffee grounds are rich in antioxidants and caffeine, offering anti-aging and skin rejuvenation benefits. Our product line includes scrubs, masks, and lotions made from reclaimed coffee grounds. These products are not only eco-friendly but also have a lower CO2 footprint compared to conventional skincare ingredients.

    Closing the Waste Loop with Sustainable Polypropylene:

    In addition to skincare, we use coffee grounds' cellulose fibers to create biodegradable polypropylene with coffee fibers. This innovative bioplastic can replace traditional plastics in packaging and food containers, contributing to a more sustainable future.

    Microbiome-Friendly Focus:

    Our skincare formulations prioritize the skin's microbiome health, promoting a healthier complexion. We understand the importance of maintaining this balance for skin well-being.

    Our Vision for Sustainability:

    Our vision extends beyond coffee waste. We aim to transform the food supply chain from linear to circular, continuously researching ways to upcycle food waste and reduce our environmental footprint.

    Join Us on Our Mission:

    Join us in making the world greener, one cup of coffee at a time. Thanks for choosing Coffe-Eco, where we're dedicated to closing the waste loop, introducing microbiome-friendly skincare, and sustainable polypropylene production.
