WHAT COFFEE CERTIFICATIONS ARE THERE?
The food world is full of them: the seals and certifications. Even on coffee packaging or in coffee shops, you can often see a variety of seals on the products. But which seals are official certifications, what benefits do they bring, and what should you look for when buying certified coffee beans. To give you a transparency of all the important seals of espresso beans, we show you which are the most important!
BUY FAIRTRADE ESPRESSO: THIS IS WHAT YOU SHOULD LOOK OUT FOR!
The Fairtrade seal is a symbol for fair trade. This means the payment of fair prices, this minimum price coffee producers or small farmers can receive for the specific products. In order for espresso beans to receive this Fairtrade certification, certain social, ecological and economic criteria must be met. These include, for example, regulated working conditions, prohibition of child labor or exploitation and the protection of natural resources. Only when all criteria and requirements are met along the entire value chain, a Fairtrade organization can mark the espresso with an official Fairtrade logo.
The aim of the Fairtrade coffee seal is to create a bridge between producers and consumers. To establish a long-term and fair trade relationship and at the same time to establish a biologically sustainable coffee cultivation with an accompanying increase in quality. A fair payment for the coffee producers for a better living and working situation in the growing areas.
WHAT EXACTLY ARE ORGANIC ESPRESSOS?
Organic espresso, are roasted espresso beans that are marked with an organic seal. The organic seal is a test and quality seal and identifies all organic espresso that comes from an organic coffee cultivation and meets certain organic requirements and organic standards.
For example, an organic espresso may contain a maximum of 0.9% genetically modified material and at least 95% of the ingredients must come from a natural origin or organic cultivation. The organic certification refers to the entire value chain and supply chain of the espressos. A control is therefore carried out during production, processing, trade and storage. A BIO espresso that meets all BIO standards is identified by the official EU organic seal. This shows the shape of a leaf, formed by stars, on a green background.
ESPRESSO RAINFOREST ALLIANCE CERTIFIED - WHAT ARE THE BENEFITS OF CERTIFICATION FOR COFFEE FARMERS AND COOPERATIVES?
Espresso that is made from environmentally friendly ingredients, grown in a socially responsible manner, and sourced from certified farms is eligible to be Rainforest Alliance certified. Rainforest Alliance coffees are certified only if they meet all the criteria and standards for official Rainforest Alliance certification.

When you buy Rainforest Allainace certified espresso, you value our environment, animals and people.
