Sustainability

Santos is committed to sustainability in every cup. We strive to source our coffee beans responsibly, supporting ethical practices and environmentally-friendly farming methods. By prioritising the well-being of our planet and communities, we aim to ensure a sustainable future for generations to come. Through transparency, innovation, and ethical practices, we pledge to make a positive impact on the environment and uphold the highest standards of social responsibility in every aspect of our operations.

We’ve made significant strides in making our products more environmentally friendly. Our coffee bags are recyclable through the soft recycle program, reflecting our dedication to sustainability. While we’re not yet able to make the bags fully recyclable due to the need for a vent and protection to keep the coffee fresh, we’re actively staying updated with our suppliers and the market for new innovations.

We prioritise purchasing coffee from regions aligned with the Rainforest Alliance, supporting reputable and respectable green bean suppliers and creating longstanding relationships to protect communities and allow future generations to continue to grow coffee in the years to come.

We are dedicated to refurbishing coffee machinery, giving it a renewed purpose, and extending its lifespan. We recognise the environmental impact of waste, particularly in the coffee industry, where equipment can often be prematurely discarded. By refurbishing and restoring these machines we help to reduce waste and conserve valuable resources which contributes to a more sustainable future.

Through our efforts, we not only breathe new life into machines but also support the broader movement towards sustainability in the coffee sector. By implementing these initiatives and continuously working towards sustainability, our commitment is an ongoing journey, and we remain dedicated to continuously improving our environmental practices and encouraging best practices throughout our operations.
