DOING IS EVERYTHING.
Our Commitments
-
Doing is everything
We will keep doing everything we can to produce some of the finest coffee that preserves the best of our world.
Doing is everything
Here are our three commitments to make coffee a force for good:
- Reducing, reusing and recycling
- Supporting farmers’ livelihoods
- Making your cup fully carbon neutral by 2022
-
Everything for positive impact
We are convinced that coffee can be a force for good because it can shape communities and preserve landscapes for the better.
Everything for positive impact
By the end of 2020 we will reach the goals of our current sustainability ambitions:
- Sourcing all our coffee sustainably
- Making our own operations carbon neutral
- Offering to more than 90% of our customers, easy access to a collection point to recycle used capsules.
-
Everything for wasting nothing.
We commit to accelerate our efforts in reducing, reusing and recycling.
Everything for wasting nothing.
- We have already started using recycled aluminium in our capsules
- We have already set up capsule collection systems for the infinitely recyclable aluminium of our capsules
- The infinitely recyclable aluminium from our capsules can have a second life after use, and never wasted.
-
Everything for going neutral
The new reality we are all facing has also moved us to accelerate our plans in order to achieve in 2 years what we had initially planned to accomplish over the course of 10 years.
Everything for going neutral
- We commit that by the end of 2022 your cup of Nespresso will be fully carbon neutral.
- We are continuing to reduce the footprint of each cup.
- We are expanding tree planting in and around coffee farms to compensate the remaining CO2 emissions with our NGO partners, the Rainforest Alliance, and PUR Project.
-
Everything for their tomorrow
Creating a better tomorrow for farmers has always been our priority. That is why our commitment is to ensure farmers achieve a stable and viable living from coffee.
Everything for their tomorrow
- We will continue to build on 20 years of partnership with farmers, paying premium coffee prices and encouraging sustainable practices.
- We are reducing risk from market and currency unpredictability and ensuring farmers can make a living off their work.
- We will work with our partners at Fairtrade to increase the share of our certified coffees.
