6 years, 1 month agoThe world's largest recycler of spent coffee grounds, creating sustainable bio-products for a circular economy. B CorpTM.
bio-bean is the world’s largest recycler of spent coffee grounds, recycling thousands of tonnes annually into sustainable bio-products.
The UK drinks 98 million cups of coffee every day, creating a quarter of a million tonnes of spent coffee grounds every year. Typically, these grounds are sent to landfill where they emit greenhouse gases, including methane. Discarding in landfill is not only damaging to our environment, it is also a costly method of waste disposal for businesses due to the UK government’s landfill tax.
Working within the existing logistics infrastructure to collect spent coffee grounds from businesses at every scale, we recycle these grounds into sustainable products for a variety of industries.
At bio-bean we’re on a mission to reduce waste, reduce emissions and create a real difference for our world by sustainably innovating through coffee waste. As a B CorpTM, sustainability is at the heart of everything we do. We’re in it for the long haul, creating impact built to last.
