How do you dispose of coffee grounds?

It might still come as a surprise for many, but in fact you can recycle coffee grounds! Exciting, huh?
Disposing of coffee grounds in the UK
The UK consumes around 70 million cups of coffee a day, generating hundreds of thousands of tonnes of waste coffee grounds each year. Unfortunately, most of these used grounds end up in landfills, where they release greenhouse gases - including methane, which is 28 times more dangerous than carbon dioxide. That's where our coffee grounds waste disposal service comes in!

We have been recycling coffee grounds from businesses since 2015, in partnership with bio-bean. They were the first company to recycle coffee grounds on an industrial scale, converting the waste into biofuels and biochemicals. The recycled coffee grounds are turned into logs for wood burners.
