The little things

The little things

For many, coffee is a quiet moment of comfort. But behind that daily ritual? 59 billion pods headed for landfill each year. Most sustainable options feel like a disruption—asking people to change the very rituals they cherish.


I asked myself: What if sustainability didn’t need to be loud to be effective?

A pod that fits in

A pod that fits in

BioBrewTech was my answer. A home-compostable, machine-compatible pod designed to work with existing habits—not against them. Made with BIOPBS, plant-fiber lids, and compostable linings, the design hides the innovation.

The goal? Let people enjoy their coffee, just without the waste.

The goal? Let people enjoy their coffee, just without the waste.

I developed a multi-layered system:

  • Lid: Bio-fiber film to maintain freshness and allow air circulation

  • Shell: Bamboo pulp structure designed to withstand pressure + heat

  • Filter & inner liner: Compostable nanocellulose that filters effectively without residue

All components work seamlessly with existing machines. The user does nothing differently—but the earth thanks them.
