GaeaStar’s 3D-printed disposable clay cups are available in the US for the first time today, but only at Verve Coffee shops in San Francisco.

Researchers at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT) have developed a specialized 3D printer that utilizes food ...

In 2019 alone, the US generated 66 million tons of food waste. The majority of that waste (60 percent) ended up in landfills.

Researchers at the University of Colorado Boulder are using old coffee grounds to 3D-print a wide range of objects—from jewelry to pots for plants and even, fittingly, coffee cups.

Celso Bulgatti/Andy Altman Mankotia said that because his 3D-printed cups are made from just dirt, salt and water, they can safely be left in landfills or even smashed to dust on the ground.

San Francisco- and Berlin-based 3D-printing startup GaeaStar and its founder and CEO, Sanjeev Mankotia, are attracting investment for at least one solution to single-use trash, like coffee cups ...

There’s plenty of it, too, since apparently Earthlings drink about 2 billion cups of coffee a day. There seems to be this odd connection between filament and kitchen items. Seriously.

Gridfinity is a modular, grid-based storage and organization system that’s optimized for 3D printing and rapid customization.

This article is more than 2 years old. Researchers in Brazil and the UK found a way to turn recycled coffee pods into 3D-printed conductive materials that can be used to create caffeine detectors.
