Corporate responsibility
Reducing waste
We recycle products and packaging wherever we can. Many of our newer machines also let people use their own reusable cups and bottles, which cuts down on single-use waste.
Sustainable sourcing
We choose coffee and ingredients from suppliers who share our values, including ethically sourced and Fairtrade options, so every cup is one you can feel good about.
Energy-efficient machines
Modern machines use far less energy than older models, with eco modes and standby settings that cut power use when your workplace is quiet.
Refurbish and reuse
Our refurbished machines give quality equipment a second life. They keep machines out of landfill and offer a cost-effective alternative to buying new.
Local service
Our engineers are based locally and plan their routes carefully, which means fewer miles, lower emissions and faster support for you.
