Excellence with CO₂ emissions offset​

Our coffee capsules would not be aligned with our values without consideration for the environment and carbon footprint. This is why Lavazza has reduced emissions along our entire value chain and offsets direct emissions for our capsules.

Now all Lavazza Blue Capsules feature CO₂ emissions offset. Enjoy the Lavazza coffee experience, with the decadent aromas and flavors of our blends, with confidence that CO₂ emissions are offset.

The new Lavazza CO₂ emission offset Capsules

Our carbon neutrality approach begins with reducing emissions along Lavazza's entire value chain. In 2020, we began our journey by offsetting direct emissions and achieving complete CO₂ emissions compensation. This is part of our larger commitment to sustainability, named Blend for Better. It embraces many projects following the Sustainable Development Goals of the United Nations for 2030 in 4 key areas: Care for the environment, Spin a virtuous cycle, Open up opportunities, and Educate for change.

What does this mean in practice?

Our carbon neutrality approach begins with reducing emissions. As we are conscious that not all emissions can be reduced at once, Lavazza uses carbon offsetting on residual emissions by supporting different projects. We offset our annual carbon emissions in relation to the volumes of capsules sold. For 2022 the amount offset is equal to:
