Rogers Family Company creates groundbreaking 97% biodegradable coffee product

By 3p Contributor

To address the waste challenge and concern of environmentally-conscious consumers who want coffee as “green” as possible, the Rogers Family Company in the US has created a groundbreaking single serve coffee product that is 97% biodegradable.

The OneCup BIO, as it is called, has the highest percentage of biodegradability of any single serve coffee. The company is also working to make the product’s mesh filter biodegradable to render the OneCup BIO waste-free.
The filter is BIO’s only non- biodegradable part.

OneCup is composed of bio-based material from renewable natural resources including vegetable oil, various plant starches and tree by-products.
