RRecycap Technologies
Recycap Technologies is a Spanish cleantech company that builds automated end-to-end recycling solutions for used coffee capsules. Its patented REACT (Recycap Automated Coffee Technology) platform — including the REACT Coffee Machine and REACT-H devices for home, office and industrial use — mechanically separates coffee grounds from aluminium and plastic capsules so the empties can go straight into normal recycling bins. Founded in 2022 and seed-funded with roughly €555K from Veos Ventures and ENISA, it is a small team (1-10 employees).
