Our Coffee and CO2 Footprint

Our goal is to continuously make our products more CO2- and environmentally friendly, support other sustainable and social projects and raise awareness. We pay attention to avoid climate change at every step of our value chain.

The growing conditions of our specialty coffee are essential for the aroma and flavor of an excellent coffee. Therefore proper storage and packaging play a very important role. Our Ecuadorian coffee is roasted and packed locally in Berlin. In addition, we sell it in beans, so it retains its aroma and flavor for much longer. We use special aroma packaging made from certified, 100% aluminum-free and recyclable materials. Our special pouches are resealable and refillable, so we encourage our customers to reuse them. This contributes to our goal of lowering CO2 emissions and protecting the environment.
We look all the time for even more sustainable packaging options. We use 100% recycled paper label material including adhesive.

We are working on emission-free shipping. All products from our coffee shop are shipped in packages that consist of at least 90 percent recycled material.
