Most coffee packaging comes with a major environmental footprint. Plastic + foil-lined bags (used extensively in specialty coffee & tea) cannot be recycled. These are made of fossil fuels and end up in landfills.
Zero Footprint Coffee has a strict ‘no plastic policy’ and we use “premium brown bags” for all orders.
Our "premium brown bags" are composed of 100% natural materials: post-consumer kraft paper, PLA (corn-based) lining, and a tin-tie. To recycle: Remove the tin-tie and recycle the bag.
A label/seal is required to ensure the coffee is fresh, traceable, and free from tampering. Our standard label/seal is composed of paper and adhesive, and can be recycled along with the bag.

A good grinder (or almost any grinder) is a good investment in coffee. The grinders main job is to destroy the cellulose walls and membranes that guard coffees volatile flavour components. This exposure allows for extraction however it significantly increases oxidation. Please buy a grinder and grind just before brewing. We may have an upcoming promotion that will showcase the importance of grinders for healthier and more flavourful cups.
The first deliveries of Zero Footprint Coffee start on December 15, 2021.

Blends often hide the origins. Zero Footprint celebrates them. Blends will include 50% Honduras Cafe Solar while the supplies last. The other amazing 50% will be made with certified specialty graded coffees. The certified coffees stocks are always changing and will include origins such as; Ethiopia, Uganda, Congo, Kenya, Tanzania, Rwanda, Burundi, Mexico, Guatemala, Honduras, Nicaragua, Peru, Colombia, Papua New Guinea, Sumatra.
100% of all coffee beans are traceable or we can't calculate and offset the footprint. 90% of all bean sourced are double certified, typically organic and fair trade. However, double certifications bodies do not exist in all producing countries and we are not closed to supporting other innovative and transparent certifications. All coffees used are detailed on the back label of every bag.
