Our Solution
At Burlapped, our mission is simple:
minimize our impact on the planet by creating an upcycling system for waste from the coffee roasting industry
We will approach this as a community of people dedicated to reducing our impact on the planet. Below are the three pillars of the Burlapped community:
Coffee Roasters
reducing their waste
The first pillar of Burlapped is built on meaningful relationships with local coffee roasters. We want to give every coffee roaster an opportunity to participate in waste reductive efforts and become part of our Green Roaster Community.
Roasters, to get involved, please reach out!
Creatives
supporting product development
The second pillar of Burlapped is built on a network of creatives who can execute their vision on how to reuse the waste that Burlapped supplies. We believe in creative autonomy for everyone and hope to give them to give a new purpose
Creatives, let us know what you’d like to make!
Fabricators
upcycling waste into prodcuts
The third pillar of Burlapped is built on a reliable network of manufacturers who have the capability to upcycle Burlapped materials at scale. The problem is clear, there is so much waste out there and we need to rely heavily on our fabricators to give this trash another lap!
