bio-bean

We're the world's largest recycler of spent coffee grounds, transforming thousands of tonnes of this resource previously considered 'waste' into sustainable bio-products to benefit planet and people.

We reduce waste, reduce subsequent greenhouse gas emissions, displace conventional, fossil-fuel based materials, and contribute to the circular economy.

We're a Certified B Corporation, and were recognised as a Best for the Environment B Corp in 2021.

The UK drinks 98 million cups of coffee every day, creating an estimated ¼ million tonnes of spent grounds which typically end up wastefully discarded.

But we’ve created a better solution. We’re the world’s expert in recycling spent coffee grounds. Based in Cambridgeshire, we recycle spent grounds collected from businesses large and small across the UK. And we transform thousands of tonnes annually into a variety of sustainable bio-products to benefit people and planet. These include Coffee Logs – our consumer retail brand of fire logs; and Inficaf – our bulk, raw material for third-party product design and development.

A pioneering business in the early growth stage, we have big ambitions to get the world to rethink waste and to reduce associated greenhouse gas emissions. Our purpose is to create a real difference for our world by sustainably innovating through spent coffee grounds. And as a Certified B Corporation™, sustainability is at the heart of everything we do. We’re in it for the long haul, creating impact built to last.
