TECNO, a leading technology brand, has launched the innovative CAMON 30 Series LOEWE. Design Edition, featuring a unique back cover made from waste coffee grounds. This groundbreaking material is the result of a collaboration between TECNO and LOEWE, a renowned German high-end TV and audio brand.
The coffee grounds back cover is a pioneering achievement in the field of bio-based materials, with over 25% of its composition consisting of bio-based material. This eco-friendly design has earned USDA Bio-based certification, making it a game-changer in the industry.
The manufacturing process of the coffee grounds back cover is remarkable, utilizing no organic solvents and no additional water consumption. It is entirely solar-powered, ensuring a reduced environmental footprint. The resulting material boasts a luxurious touch, excellent durability, texture, and feel, while also providing UV resistance, temperature resistance, and humidity resistance.
The use of waste coffee grounds as a raw material in the manufacturing process has several benefits. For every phone cover produced, approximately 0.8g of waste coffee grounds is used. According to life cycle assessments, the recycled coffee grounds back cover reduces non-renewable resource consumption by approximately 49.6% and carbon dioxide emissions by 46.3% compared to traditional leather cover materials.
This innovative approach not only reduces waste water but also minimizes pollution caused by waste and organic solvents. The CAMON 30 Series LOEWE. Design Edition offers a unique blend of style and sustainability, making it an attractive choice for environmentally conscious consumers.
