Innovation and creativity is the heart of what we do.
The New Ground Lab is where we explore new ideas, experiment with unique ingredients, and develop cutting-edge coffee-based products. Our team of experts is dedicated to the highest-quality services for new coffee products — from formulation to packaging and everything in between.

From bean to brew.
Every product is unique — which is why we take the time to get the formulation right for your goals and the market. We source every ingredient and offer a range of options to respond to trends and consumer demand.
After the briefing, rapid prototyping and sampling, you’re issued a Product Specification Sheet (PSS) — everything from labelling (NIP + claims) to processing details and how your product is packed and arranged on the pallet.
