Coffee bag recycling

How to recycle your Modern Standard Coffee Bags

We work with Terracycle to recycle our coffee bags. TerraCycle is an innovative recycling company that has become a global leader in recycling typically hard-to-recycle waste.

Until we find a packaging material that can be recycled easily and doesn’t impact the quality and freshness of our coffee, we feel this is the best solution to recycle our coffee packaging.

  • RECYCLE

    Once we have a box full of bags, we ship them to Terracycle for recycling.

  • WHAT HAPPENS

    The collected bags undergo extrusion and pelletisation , and are then moulded into various recycled plastic products.

  • THANKS

    As a thank you, we will send you a code for 10p of your next order for each bag you send back, and refund the cost of posting back the bags.
