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.
