Pact Coffee Sustainability Actions

Carbon-neutral UK operations

Since 2022, we have been carbon-neutral across our UK operations (often called Scope 1 and 2). Essentially, this means the carbon we put into the atmosphere, from the gas in our roastery to the electricity in our office, is no greater than the amount we remove.

Reduced roasting emissions

We use Loring Smart Roasters, which are among the most efficient in the world, reducing our roasting emissions by 80%. We also use 100% clean electricity and smart, low-energy lighting to keep our footprint as small as possible.

Recyclable coffee bags

Every bag that leaves our roastery is 100% recyclable. We use low-density polyethylene (LDPE), a soft plastic made from at least 70% recycled material. You can recycle our packaging along with carrier bags at most larger supermarkets (often referred to as ‘Scheme 4’ recycling).

Recyclable grocery bags

Our coffee in grocery stores is packaged a bit differently. To protect its delicate aromas and flavours on the shelves, we use a process called nitrogen flushing. Because nitrogen flushing requires a specific seal, these bags are made from polypropylene (PP #5)... This is widely accepted in most household recycling bins and at major supermarkets.

12

Direct sourcing relationships

Pact Coffee has done this by building meaningful relationships with those at the start of the supply chain. These direct relationships have cut out the questionable middlemen who blur labour violations and cut margins.

Higher producer payments

Pact’s business strategy has led to increasingly competitive compensation for producers, at a rate of at least 25% higher than the Fair Trade base price.

Support for female producers

Pact also aims to empower women in the industry, having purchased 35% of its coffee last year from female producers.
