Single Cup Plastic Waste Recycling Program – Comprehensive recycling programs are available for single-use K-Cup and Flavia Pack waste. Keurig utilizes the K-Cycle program and Flavia has a direct to customer Terracycle program. In both programs, plastics are separated from the organic waste – this plastic is used to create park benches where the coffee grounds are sent to organics. Learn more at the following websites:
Environmentally Single Cup Options – We have a large variety of coffee brewing equipment that leaves little to no landfill waste, only organics.
Eco-friendly Break Room Alternatives – We have alternatives for all break room and kitchen supplies that are eco-friendly or compostable. From cutlery, stirs, recycled napkins, eco paper towels, compostable coffee cups and more.
Point of Use Water Machines – We encourage our customers to have us install Point-of-Use water coolers which are plumbed directly into your water line. This reduces plastic bottle waste and encourages employee’s bringing re-fillable containers to the office.
Sustainable Carbonated and Juice Dispensers – For offices that would like to supply cold beverages to their staff, the Bevi machine saves over 33,000 bottles and cans annually from landfills.
Locally Sourced Coffee – We support local business, including Reunion Island Coffee Roasters and Muskoka Roastery. These roasters have many designations including direct trade, rainforest alliance and organic.
In-house Initiatives – All the products we use for our own facility are eco-friendly. We also have on site recycling and commitment to reusing cardboard boxes for packing customer coffee orders and our deliveries. We perform daily route optimization to lower our carbon footprint and have paper reducing initiatives with emailed invoices.
