Bean Alliance Sustainability Actions

Organic and Fairtrade coffee

Bean Alliance has sold coffee under its bean ground & drunk range that is certified organic and Fairtrade. Independent ethical shopping sources say this range was launched in 1999 and certified in 2001, and that it is roasted in Australia’s first organically certified roasting house. This shows the company has used third-party certification for part of its coffee business for many years.

Uses certified sourcing programs

The company says its coffee work includes Australian Certified Organic, Fairtrade, Rainforest Alliance, Swiss Water, Ethical Tea Partnership, and HACCP. HACCP is a food safety system that helps spot and control risks in food production. Swiss Water is a chemical-free decaf process that removes caffeine using water instead of chemical solvents. These programs suggest the business has tried to improve sourcing and product integrity across parts of its range.

Worked on lower-waste cups

Bean Alliance says it spent two years researching its Brown Brew Cups paper cup project and worked on paper sourcing, manufacturing, and disposal. A third-party article also says the company was the first to collaborate with The Good Cup Paper Cup on a takeaway cup solution. Both points suggest the company has tried to reduce waste linked to coffee packaging and cups.

Packaging score from APCO

An independent ethical shopping source says the company’s packaging arm received a level 3, or Advanced, score in APCO’s 2026 annual report. APCO is the Australian Packaging Covenant Organisation, which rates how well members manage packaging and move toward a circular economy, meaning materials are kept in use for longer and waste is reduced. This is a concrete sign of packaging progress.

Supports organic awareness

Bean Alliance took part as a 5x Gold Sponsor for Australian Organic Awareness Month, according to a third-party event article. The company used the campaign to highlight certified organic products and explain why consumers should look for the bud logo on products. This is an education and awareness action tied to organic food and drink.
