For Investors

Building a material supply chain from urban waste.

Coffee-based biomaterials developed in Barcelona through structured validation and scale-ready design.

The Idea

BIOMA develops laminated biomaterials using post-consumer coffee waste as primary feedstock. The goal is not to create a niche product brand, but to build a scalable materials platform that begins with waste instead of extraction.

By structuring local waste streams into semi-industrial material production, the project tests whether urban residue can become viable material supply.

Current Stage

Location

Semi-industrial workshop production in Barcelona

 
Status

Designer validation and small-batch supply

 
 
Format

Laminated sheet format (0.5–2 mm thickness)

 
 
R&D

Structured feedback loops for performance refinement

 
 

Environmental Framework

A cradle-to-gate life cycle assessment aligned with ISO 14040/14044 principles is currently in progress. The assessment identifies binder composition, textile backing, and energy intensity as key variables.

Certification pathways, including EU Ecolabel readiness, are under preparation.

Why It Matters

Scale Logic

Current energy intensity and production capacity reflect semi-industrial conditions. Scale-up focuses on process optimisation, energy efficiency improvements, and material consistency.

The roadmap prioritises validation, performance refinement, and compliance alignment before volume expansion.

Invest in material infrastructure.

We are not building a trend-driven product brand. We are developing a material platform grounded in circular feedstock logic and regulatory readiness.
