Merrild and Lavazza Group
The Merrild brand has been part of the family-owned coffee company Lavazza Group since 2015.
Our carbon neutrality approach starts with reducing emissions. As we are well aware that all CO₂-emissions cannot be reduced at once, the Lavazza Group uses compensation for the remaining emissions.
Lavazza Group selects specific projects that are verified and certified according to internationally recognized methods and standards (VCS, CCB and CDM).
In addition to avoiding or sequestering carbon, the projects also provide other environmental, social and economic benefits. The purpose of supporting these projects is to improve the livelihood of the local community in a sustainable way by tackling climate change and achieving the UN’s Sustainable Development Goals. We offset the annual carbon emission in relation to the amount of capsules sold.
CO₂-neutral* aluminum capsules include offsetting emissions produced throughout the product’s life cycle, from cultivation of coffee to the end of its life, through all stages of production, transport and disposal.
We offset all the emissions related to the amount of coffee produced and processed at every stage of the supply chain.
