The waste after brewing coffee has a new use.

Although it is difficult for many people to associate it with 3D printing, a manufacturer called 3Dom USA has come up with a good idea with C2renew, a biocomposites company, to turn it into a raw material (filament) suitable for 3D printers.

The history of Wound Up is inextricably linked to caffeine because it is itself a "by-product" of coffee waste.

The material is characterized by rich brown and natural texture, and can be used to print common objects as long as it supports conventional PLA filaments.

Considering that it is made from some part of coffee, you may want to make something unique, such as a coffee cup, a caffeine formula, or a cone-shaped coffee filter.

3Dom USA showed off some of his ideas, such as a boat, a cat, and a cup. Of course, I'm sure not many people will choose to eat their own printed objects.

In order to implement the concept of environmental protection to the end, Wound Up also takes some pains in packaging, such as its spool is made of plant raw materials. The Wound Up sells for $49 / 2.2lb (314 yuan / kg).
