The idea behind Kaffeeform was developed in 2009 in Germany, fuelled by the intention to create a sustainable material that aims to take advantage of coffee grounds, a waste material readily available, to become an alternative to plastics.

In 2015, after five years of experimentation and investigation, they found a unique formula to upcycle old coffee into new, beautifully designed products. Their iconic Kaffeeform Cups were born.

And now, they give renewable resources (other wasted resources) – that would have ended up in the trash – a second life by transforming them into beautiful everyday objects and infusing them with a new purpose.
