Re-useable cups
We use Decent Packaging which is a Toitū carbonzeroCertTM certified organisation. In short a Carbon Zero Organsiation
It's not plastic! All of our straws and takeaway cups are made from PLA. We use Low carbon PLA biopolymers made from renewable sources. PLA breaks down into organic molecules.

Coffee Sustainability
Perky Blenders coffee beans are sourced sustainably, from trusted suppliers.
Perky Blenders endeavour to seek out suppliers who champion smallholders and independent farmers, and make sure that all of the bigger farms and plantations they work with provide their staff with a decent wage and a good quality of living.
Reused coffee grounds:
You would be surprised what you can do with used ground coffee. We have bags for you to take away for free. But what can you do with them?
1. Fertilizer
Most soil does not contain the essential nutrients needed for optimal plant growth.
Also, as plants grow, they absorb nutrients from the soil, ultimately leaving it depleted.
2. Repel insects & pests
Certain compounds found in coffee, such caffeine and diterpenes, can be highly toxic to insects.
Because of this, you can use coffee grounds to repel bugs.
3. Neutralize Odours
Coffee grounds contain nitrogen, which helps eliminate a foul-smelling sulfur gas from the air when it’s combined with carbon.
In other words, coffee grounds can help absorb and eliminate odors.
