COFFEE
Sustainability
Machina is driven by an ethical and sustainable approach to doing business. This means we consider more than just the bottom line.
We also take an open and honest approach to sustainability, implementing practical solutions, that help move us along on our goal to being a carbon neutral coffee business.
Our journey so far...
Over the last decade, we have put in place a number of initiatives towards improving our sustainability credentials, but we also open about the ongoing cycle of learning we face to achieve our goal of becoming a fully sustainable coffee roastery.
This incorporates, but is not exclusive to, how we source our coffee, who we work with, what packaging we use, how we can make positive use of all our bi-products and crucially, how we communicate this to all our stakeholders.
We are committed to making the continued improvements to reduce our carbon footprint and make a positive impact at origin.

Sustainable Coffee Sourcing
We only work with a select group of coffee suppliers who not only source and supply exceptional coffee but are also highly regarded as attaining the very highest standards when it comes to Ethics and Fair Trade.Â
Our suppliers not only source and supply coffee but also develop grassroots relationships with coffee farmers, washing stations, and processing mills at origin.

Recyclable Coffee Packaging
As part of our ongoing sustainability initiatives, we are delighted to announce that recycling your empty Machina Coffee bags just got a whole lot easier
Depending on where you live our bags can now be recycled at supermarkets, or in some cases, kerbside.

Sourcing Direct from Origin
As of September 2022, we now plan to source the majority of the coffees we roast at Machina, direct from origin.
Making this decision has been the result of a lot of careful planning and consideration, which culminated in our first ever sourcing trip to Brazil in July. This blog is the first in a series of blogs on this subject, which looks at the reasons that drove this decision.
