KaffeRena Bioworks upcycles spent coffee grounds into premium, solvent-free cosmetic ingredients — a supercritical-CO2 coffee oil and a de-oiled exfoliant powder — for formulators, manufacturers and brands.
A supercritical-CO2 coffee oil recovered from spent grounds — clean-label, linoleic-acid-rich, and free of solvent residue. Suited to serums, balms, and hair and skin formulations that want a traceable, upcycled active.
The de-oiled coffee cake, refined into a cosmetic-grade exfoliating powder with controlled particle size. Natural mechanical exfoliation for scrubs, soaps and masks — with a genuine circular story behind it.
Coffee gives up its grounds; we give them a second, higher purpose — then return what's left to energy. A closed loop, start to finish.
Fresh spent grounds gathered daily from partner cafés, sorted at source for quality.
Chilled, dewatered and gently dried to lock in quality before the grounds can spoil.
Supercritical CO2 separates the oil — no chemical solvents, nothing left behind.
Oil and de-oiled powder finished to cosmetic grade, tested, and documented per lot.
Extracted with supercritical CO2, not chemical solvents — so the oil carries no solvent residue, unlike conventionally hexane-extracted coffee oils.
Every batch is rescued café waste, sorted by source and traceable to origin.
Controlled specification, per-lot Certificate of Analysis, certification in progress.
Built from the start for EU and US cosmetic-ingredient buyers and standards.
Every kilo of coffee grounds we rescue is a kilo kept out of landfill — where it would rot and release methane. We turn it into ingredients people are glad to put on their skin, and recover what remains as energy.
We're an emerging producer, currently commissioning our line. If you formulate, distribute, or manufacture with natural ingredients, we'd like to understand your specification — and share ours. Ask for our spec sheet and early samples.
