Caring for the Climate
We’re using the power of coffee to regenerate land, restore healthy ecosystems, and build resilience against the impact of climate change.
How Do We Plan to Achieve Our Ambitions?
We’re working through the entire lifecycle of each cup of coffee in order to reduce its carbon footprint and help us reach our goals. To achieve net-zero, we’re committed to reforestation, recycling, and utilizing recycled materials, as well as moving towards fully renewable energy sources and working with our supply chain partners to reduce carbon emissions.
Eco design coffee system
Our system is designed to use a precise consumption of water, coffee, and energy for each cup of coffee.
Recycling program
We offer a free, dedicated recycling program and encourage our consumers to recycle their used capsules so that the aluminum can be given a second life and the coffee grounds can be repurposed.
Responsible transportation
Our green beans travel from their countries of origin by boat and rail to our production centres in Switzerland.
Responsible production
Our production centres are powered by 100% certified renewable electricity.
