MAIN CONCERN

The main concern of Grupo Café Jurerê is with environmental, social and economic sustainability. In the manufacturing of its products, parameters, rules and procedures are followed in order to result in minimum environmental impact and maximum saving in the entire production chain. 

The coffee beans used in the blend are produced in farms that adopt conscious growing practices, where the whole process is audited and certified by accredited agencies, such as: Fair Trade, 4C, Rainforest, Orgânicos and Café do Cerrado Seal. 

In the industrialization stage, certified packages are used, such as FSC – Forest Stewardship Council. In addition to controlling air emissions, equipment is used to reduce these emissions from the smoke generated in the roasting process. The entire industrialization process is audited by ABIC through the Coffee Quality Program and Brazilian Sustainable Coffee Program. 

Every day, through modernization of its processes and equipment, the company tries to improve and strengthen its sustainability practices.

LEARN HOW TO RECYCLE

After enjoying your coffee, give the packages the correct destination for recycling, thus contributing to the environment.

Disposal tips:

Separate the packages in different bins, one for “dry waste” and another for “wet waste.” All of the organic waste goes to the “wet waste” bin. Examples: Coffee filters and drip coffee sachets, that are wet.

The inorganic waste, which is not easily decomposed, goes to the “dry waste” bin, such as paper boxes and metalized packages. This “dry waste” bin will have a number of materials that can be recycled.

When you separate the waste properly, you are facilitating the recycling of packages. Noting that, for example, the coffee paper box, after separated and destined for recycling, will have a new use, since cardboard packages have fibers that, through recycling, can become a new paper.

The vacuum metalized coffee packages and the Flow Pack of the Drip Coffee Bag  (internal packages), made with some kind of plastic film with metalized aspect, BOPP (bi-axially oriented polypropylene), can be transformed into raw material for the manufacturing of plastic bags, garbage bags, tiles and the like, as long as they are given the proper destination. 

As to the filter you use to make your Drip Coffee Bag Jurerê, even though it is not possible to reuse or recycle it, you can use it as a seedling tray to germinate seeds in it, in an ecological and sustainable manner. 

Be part of this environmental preservation and change the place where you live.
