Products for Café’s
Cafés and coffee shops are at the heart of Australia’s hospitality scene — and customers increasingly expect them to lead by example in reducing single-use plastics and managing waste responsibly. With certified compostable products and the right waste systems, cafés can significantly cut landfill, reduce costs, and boost their sustainability credentials.
At Environmental Resources, we supply a complete range of compostable café essentials, including coffee knock tube bags, bin liners for organics and recycling streams, compostable gloves for food prep, retail carry bags, produce and bakery bags, and compostable food-service packaging. All products are certified to Australian compostable standards and designed to perform under the fast-paced demands of café operations.
An Australian Owned Family Business.
Innovative waste diversion solutions, designed and manufactured to connect Australians to a more sustainable future.
Recoverables in the Café Environment
The largest waste streams for most cafés are food scraps, coffee grounds, paper, and soft plastics from food packaging. By pairing our compostable bin liners and food-service items with a best-practice waste separation system, cafés can:
- Divert food waste and coffee grounds to commercial composting
- Reduce contamination in recycling streams
- Eliminate petroleum-based plastics from takeaway packaging
- Meet council and government sustainability requirements
The rapid growth of commercial composting facilities in Australia means cafés can now process organic waste more easily — and in many cases, reduce waste disposal costs by sending less to landfill.
Front & Back of House Solutions
We design solutions for both customer-facing and staff-only areas:
- Front of House– compostable coffee cup lids, carry bags, produce/bakery bags for retail, and visible bin liners in organics/recycling stations.
- Back of House– coffee knock tube bags, food waste liners for prep areas, compostable gloves, and heavy-duty bin liners for larger waste volumes.
By mirroring waste separation front and back of house, cafés can maintain operational efficiency while maximising landfill diversion.
