Sustainability
Cornwall is a spectacularly beautiful part of the world, and we want to help keep it that way
...and that's just the tip of the iceberg.
The boxes, tape, bags and the labels that transport your delicious coffee to your grinder hopper are often overlooked.
Here at Cornico Coffee Roasters we are always thinking about our impact on the environment, and this reflects in all our products.
Our coffee bags are bio-degradable, and the bag lining is oxo bio-degradable - which means that we will not have bags branded with our logo on a landfill 100 years in the future. The labels on our coffee bags are made from sugarcane and hemp paper which degrades far quicker than plastic labels which will last a lifetime. Hemp is much more efficient than even paper as a hemp stalk can grow in 4 months whereas a tree will take between 20 and 80 years to grow.
The boxes that house your coffee are bio-degradable and we have even thought about the tape we use to seal the boxes; it’s made from cellulose.
Please let us know if your order is a gift and we will do our best to hide any branding. We are always thinking about our impact on the environment, and this reflects in all of our products - from biodegradable coffee bags and labels to our wholesale zero waste coffee initiative.
