CARE IS WHAT GOES INTO EVERY CUP

We believe that a cup of Nespresso coffee can deliver an extraordinary experience while creating greater value for society and the environment.

PORTIONED - A CLEVER CHOICE

Ever wonder if your morning Nespresso is a good choice environmentally? Research* shows that portioned coffee can be more environmentally friendly than filter coffee. Why? This is so that each Nespresso cup of coffee is made with exactly the right amount of coffee and hot water. This prevents the waste of energy, water, and coffee.

Comparing portioned coffee to other coffee options, some may believe that it is a less environmentally friendly choice. Yet, we must consider the entire value chain of a product in order to comprehend its environmental impact. From bean to cup.

Can Nespresso coffee be a sustainable choice?

Independent experts – using what’s called a Life Cycle Assessment* – have found that portioned coffee can have a similar environmental impact – or an even better performance – than other ways of making coffee. Why? Well, with a precision consumption system like Nespresso, you use just the right amount of coffee, water and energy needed to brew a single cup. It's simple to overdose on coffee, make more than you intend to drink, or leave the hot plate running longer than is necessary while using alternative brewing techniques.

Why does it matter so much how I prepare my coffee?

To understand the environmental impact of a product, we must look at the product's whole value chain.

You might be shocked to learn that the two factors that contribute most to the carbon footprint of a cup of coffee are home consumption and coffee growing, with packaging coming in third. Hence, encouraging sustainable farming methods, avoiding coffee waste, and employing energy-efficient equipment are essential for lowering the carbon footprint of a cup of coffee. The Nespresso AAA Sustainable QualityTM Program, our sustainable coffee sourcing program, and our policy that all new Nespresso machine lines come with an automatic stand-by mode or power-off feature to save energy consumption are how Nespresso addresses these issues.
