The Beginning
Carbon Positive
Coffee farms pull carbon out of the air. They are carbon positive. We are on the consumption end, so we will never honestly call ourselves carbon neutral by buying offsets that quietly claim the farmer's carbon as our own. We won't do that. Instead we destroy less, every way we can, and aim to be as carbon beautiful as possible.
Our Packaging
100% Recyclable
We spent the last year redesigning our coffee packaging from the ground up. We successfully separated the two main parts of a coffee package into their primary functions. So now the entire box and coffee card is 100% curbside recyclable, and the inner PET plastic bag is also 100% recyclable. No stickers, no tape.
Our Mailer
Pulp and Soy
Our sturdy coffee boxes ensure your coffees arrive to you pretty and safe. They are also part of the circular economy. 100% recycled paper made with 95% post-consumer waste that has been diverted from landfills. And printed with HydroSoy Ink to complete the circular economy. Home recyclable and even better reusable.
Our Shipping Box
Boxes of Bamboo
When you order a bunch of bags of coffee from Torque they arrive in the Bamboo Box. These boxes are made mostly from bamboo (& some recycled wood pulp). Curbside recyclable, reusable (at least a couple of times) and compostable. Unbleached, FSC certified Bamboo (2/3) and recycled wood pulp (1/3). Water-based printing ink.
Renewable radness

All our to go cups and lids, both hot and cold are No Tree - paper free! 100% bamboo so it renewable, compostable, biodegradable and sustainable. In fact all of our to go packaging is compostable and biodegradable. Straws, pastry bags and boxes, drink carriers and more.

Full Circle
Economic Sustainability
Sustainability runs two directions here. Environmental: packaging, shipping offsets, bamboo cups. Economic: 20% of every bag back to the producer, every time. Both matter. Neither is optional. That's not a policy. That's just how we operate.
