Being a Carbon Neutral Organisation
Becoming a more sustainable business is an ongoing commitment, not a destination to arrive at. Becoming a certified Carbon Neutral Organisation marks a significant milestone on that journey.
We chose to be certified by Climate Active Australia, the Federal Australian Government’s certification body. It’s known as the gold standard in Carbon Neutral certifications with rigorous testing and benchmarking processes.
We acknowledge carbon offsetting is by no means a perfect solution. However, the process exposes our strengths and weaknesses, while ensuring we’re not just talking the talk, but that our actions make a positive impact.
First Australian Coffee Roastery to be CNO
We’re proud to be the first coffee roaster in Australia to become a certified Carbon Neutral Organisation™ by the Australian Government-backed Climate Active program.
Gaining our Carbon Neutral Organisation certification, alongside our B Corp certification and 1% for the Planet membership, puts us into a small group of purpose-driven organisations to achieve all three accreditations. We certainly couldn't have done it without the support of our staff, customers and community.
Offsetting our carbon footprint
Every year, we support a range of projects to offset our carbon footprint. In 2023, we offset 3,810 tonnes of carbon through Climate Active, working to combat climate change and protect the environment.
Alongside this action, we’re proud to partner with Keep It Cool to plant trees in the Snowy Mountains region of NSW. This region is home to native, region-specific trees that provide crucial habitat for local wildlife, while also helping to restore the biosphere and absorb carbon from the atmosphere.
