If you know me a little bit, you know I’m a real coffee lover! So the Amsterdam Coffee Festival was a perfect fit for me. All kinds of coffee professionals showed their newest products. And there I found these Coffee Cups made out of coffee grounds from Kaffeeform.
Not only the aspect that it’s a recycled and natural material spoke to me, but also the texture and color are very appealing. It actually looks a bit like a dark wood. “Dark marblewood” as the designer Julian Lechner says himself. Above all of that, each piece is unique and keeps a hint of coffee smell in it. Hmmmm :-)
And don’t think you have to throw away your cup after you finished your coffee…. No: It’s washable, durable and lightweight. Now thats good news isn’t it! I hope the cups are getting a lot of attention from design shops and coffee bars and shops so that Julian Lechner from Kaffeeform will develop more beautiful designs with this wonderful material.
” Kaffeeform is an innovative recycled material made from used coffee grounds and renewable raw materials. After five years of experimentation and investigation, a unique formula was created to transform old coffee into new products……
The material itself and the series of coffee cups made from recycled coffee grounds will be exhibited for the first time in public at the Amsterdam Coffee Festival. An initial production run of 250 Kaffeeform cups will be offered exclusively at the fair stand.
The amount of daily coffee consumption world-wide is growing, thus the potential of reusing its waste for further uses is enormous. Kaffeeform is a sustainable material that aims to take advantage of these readily available waste materials to become an alternative to petrochemical based structural plastics.”

Design en gerecycled material
Van gemalen koffie pulp naar Koffie Kopjes
van Kaffeeform
Als je mij een beetje kent, dan weet je dat ik een echte koffie liefhebber ben! Dus het Amsterdam Coffee Festival was een “perfect mach” voor mij. Allerlei verschillende koffie professionals toonden hun nieuwste producten. En daar vond ik deze Coffee Cups gemaakt uit gemalen koffie pulp van Kaffeeform.
Nog wat info van Kaffeeform zelf:
Kaffeeform is een
innovatieve materiaalsoort gemaakt van hergebruikt koffiedik en duurzame
grondstoffen. De unieke formule om oude koffie in nieuwe producten te
transformeren is ontwikkeld op basis van vijf jaar experiment en onderzoek. Om
de eindeloze mogelijkheden van dit nieuwe materiaal te demonstreren, zijn
koffiecups van Kaffeeform ontworpen – cups die dus gemaakt zijn van
koffieafval!
Het nieuwe materiaal en de
serie koffiecups gemaakt van hergebruikt koffiedik worden op het Amsterdam
Coffee Festival voor de eerste keer aan het publiek getoond. Een eerste serie
van 250 Kaffeeform koffiecups is exclusief verkrijgbaar op de festivalstand.
Doordat de wereldwijde
dagelijkse koffieconsumptie groeit, is er een enorm reservoir aan afval dat
hergebruikt kan worden. Kaffeeform is een duurzame materiaalsoort met de
potentie om uit te groeien tot een belangrijk alternatief voor plastics op
petrochemische
Geniet!!
