Certified B Corporation

Pact Coffee presents sustainability as part of its responsibility as a coffee roaster, citing threats to coffee from deforestation, climate change and pests, and the risk to the livelihoods of more than 100 million people who work with coffee. The company says it is acting to cut emissions and support a more sustainable coffee industry. Its sustainability content focuses on packaging, carbon footprint reduction, sourcing relationships and labour practices, including direct relationships with producers and higher payments than the Fair Trade base price. It also states that it has been carbon-neutral across its UK operations since 2022.

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.

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.
