Xpresso Delight has been brewing up great coffee in offices throughout Australia and New Zealand for nearly two decades now. The brand’s global growth goals have it now rapidly expanding throughout the United States. But the brand is about more than just great, freshly-brewed coffee for office workers…it’s also about sustainability.
“When we started, it was all about providing a cafe quality coffee experience for workplaces. What we couldn’t foresee was that the industry was evolving toward single use plastic pods, which are convenient, yes, but ultimately the coffee doesn’t taste very good because it is not fresh, and more importantly, the negative impact on the environment is substantial,” says Paul Crabtree, the company’s founder.
Single-use plastics, such as coffee pods, are unquestionably polluting planet earth. They damage air, water, and soil, and even kill wildlife. It’s not going unnoticed and there are now efforts in some cities to ban plastic coffee pods.
