Brewing Change: How Heart Roasters Turns Coffee Bags into Building Blocks
Heart Roasters isn't just known for great coffee — they're leading a bold charge in sustainability with real-world impact. From transparent trade practices to repurposing their packaging into construction materials, they're showing what it means to think globally and act locally. And Savor Brands is proud to be part of the process that makes it possible.
The Heart of Sustainability
Heart Roasters goes way beyond the cup. Their commitment to sustainability starts with how they source their coffee — using direct trade relationships where producers help set pricing — and extends to how every order is shipped: carbon neutral, every time.
But they didn’t stop there.
Through a creative partnership with Savor Brands, Heart’s used coffee bags avoid the landfill. Thanks to our R+R® Program, customers can drop off their empty bags in dedicated boxes at Heart’s cafés. Those bags are then repurposed into real-world, functional products like:
- ByBlock® building materials (via ByFusion)
- Water drainage systems (via HydroBlox)
It’s a closed-loop system that makes sustainability practical and local — exactly how it should be.
