Coffee Bio-Composite: Sustainable and Safe Material Made from Coffee Grounds and Recycled Plastic

Coffee Bio-composite is a combination of natural materials namely coffee grounds (51%) and recycled PP (49%). The material has passed a series of rigorous tests according to European and American standards to obtain REACH/Rohs certification, and Food Contact Materials (FCMs), which ensure absolute safety when the material comes in contact with food, and even hot temperature (~100 degrees Celsius). 

In addition, Coffee Bio-composite from coffee is committed to being non-contaminated, BPA-free for human health.
