Jimmy’s Iced Coffee has completed the integration of zero tree packaging cartons across its entire ecommerce product line.

The innovative solution, sourced from crop waste and championed by packaging supplier Raw Packaging, repurposes agricultural by-products that would otherwise go to waste.

This packaging helps mitigate deforestation and significantly reduces carbon emissions associated with traditional packaging production.

Jimmy’s head of operations Ben Nethersole said: “By switching to packaging made from crop waste, we are helping to change the mindset of where materials are sourced from, a critical step in conserving our planet’s vital ecosystems.

“Furthermore, this environmentally conscious approach significantly lowers carbon emissions, playing an integral role in combating climate change.”

The shift to zero tree packaging aligns with the brand’s mission to promote sustainable consumption and builds on its dedication to reducing deforestation, minimising carbon emissions and appealing to a broader audience through sustainable practices.

Nethersole added: “Incorporating zero tree packaging into our e-commerce range underscores our commitment to sustainability while appealing to a wider audience that values eco-friendly alternatives.

“We believe this initiative will resonate with environmentally conscious consumers and reinforce our dedication to making responsible choices throughout our business operations.”
