Excellence with zero CO₂ impact

Our coffee could not be really excellent without caring for its carbon footprint. For this reason, our capsules are carbon neutral. Pure excellence from now on.

Excellence with zero CO₂ impact

The new Lavazza Capsules compatible with Nespresso* Original machines are our first CO₂-neutral aluminium capsules.

The Real Lavazza espresso experience in an excellent, zero CO₂ impact capsule.

The new Lavazza CO₂ Neutral Capsules

Our carbon neutrality approach starts by reducing emissions along Lavazza's entire value chain. In 2020 we began our journey towards carbon neutrality by offsetting all Scope 1 and Scope 2 emissions of Lavazza Group. This is part of our bigger commitment toward sustainability named Blend for Better.

What does it concretely mean?

Our carbon neutrality approach starts by reducing emissions. As we are conscious that all emissions cannot be reduced at once, Lavazza offsets the residual emissions buying carbon offsets. For the purchase of carbon credits, Lavazza selects specific projects that are verified and certified according to internationally recognized methodologies and standards (VCS, CCB and CDM). In addition to avoiding or sequestering carbon, the projects also provide other environmental, social and economic benefits. Supporting these projects is a way to improve the livelihoods of local communities in a sustainable way by tackling climate change and achieving the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals. We offset our annual carbon emissions in relation to the volumes of capsules sold.
