Kingdom Coffee Ltd.

– Selling primarily Fairtrade products, who promote a more conscientious approach to farming, reducing deforestation as well as increasing efficiency and yields without the use of pesticides, but instead encouraging wildlife and natural controls.
– Our tea range is primarily Clipper (a certified B Corporation), who use GM-free tea that is stored in unbleached and plastic free teabags with organic cotton string. The enveloped range is packaged in paper based envelopes that can be recycled.
– Our coffee range is freshly roasted using a Roaster that is the most energy efficient in the UK and has a catalytic converter to manage carbon emissions. We use state of the art Neotech roaster technology that involves coffee being suspended in a steady stream of hot air, resulting in a consistent, fully developed roast whilst reusing and reducing the waste gases and using less energy as result.
– Obtaining ISO 14001 accreditation for Environmental Management.
– Changing premises allowing us to become more energy conscious by installing power efficient lighting as well as using motion-detecting lighting to reduce usage when not required, using power efficient monitors for our office work and double-glazed windows for insulation.
– We have managed to transition to using a paper-based tape on our packaging, as well as using biodegradable air pockets we inflate on site using a specific machine which reduces shipping of packaging materials whilst also not creating another burden on the planet. We recycle all cardboard on site (from our usage as well as our neighbours), and re-purpose all scrap paper for taking orders (unless it contains sensitive information such as card details).
– We have reduced our waste, achieving our target of requiring one collection every two weeks for our single waste bin.
– We use DPD Premium Next-Day delivery, the UK’s market leader in sustainable delivery. We are using them more, and as such have reduced our fleet of delivery vehicles from 3 to 2.
