Company Mission

Welcome to Respresso, where innovation and eco-friendliness are at the heart of our mission. In a world that needs us more than ever, we are dedicated to recycling and environmental protection. By transforming coffee grounds into everyday essentials, we are committed to fostering a unique, sustainable lifestyle.
Each product embodies Respresso’s values and respect for natural resources. Through carefully designed production processes, we ensure that our products not only meet high-quality standards but also help reduce our carbon footprint and contribute to a healthier planet.
Respresso was founded by Ellen Fan from Orinda, & Ethan Wong from Yorba Linda, both are environmental activists who have dedicated much of their high school life to promoting sustainability and a better earth.  Their daily routine of making morning coffee for their parents inspired them to find a way to repurpose coffee grounds. After numerous experiments and research in August 2022, Respresso was born, starting with coffee cups and expanding to include soap, straws, and more products on the horizon.  With Ethan’s deep involvement in his local community, Ellen has agreed with Ethan that all proceeds of all sales from Respresso have and will be donated to Bridge California (NPO).
If you are passionate about the environment and love coffee culture, we hope you choose Respresso. We don’t just create products; we convey an attitude toward life and embody a love for nature. Join us in crafting a sustainable tomorrow, where every small action contributes to the preservation of our planet.
