Who We Are

At Coffee Elf, we are passionate about unlocking coffee’s full chemical and physical potential using green chemistry and biotech to reduce manufacturing’s Scope 3 emissions. Give back to farmers and coffee shop owners by extending coffee's economic life.

With a commitment to environmental responsibility, we upcycle used coffee grounds into a range of distinctive products that resonate with coffee enthusiasts and eco-conscious consumers.

In partnering with coffee chain shops and RTD coffee manufacturers, we're building the U.S.'s first coffee biorefinery in partnership with Columbia SEAS lab, aiming to create a Tesla-like giga factory for specialty chemicals. Our vision is to set a new standard for circular processes in North America, creating long-lasting value in manufacturing and paving the way for future pivots.

They transform discarded coffee grounds into valuable, environmentally friendly products, reclaiming waste and reintroducing it as high-quality items, effectively closing the loop for a greener future.

Harnessing the untapped potential of coffee grounds, they’re turning waste into treasures, proving that trash can indeed be transformed into valuable resources. These visionary leaders show that true innovation and success thrive outside conventional norms.

Coffee Elf is at the forefront of a groundbreaking movement, blending biotechnology, beauty, diversity, profitability, and sustainability, paving the way for a brighter, greener, and more enchanting future.
