Klimaschutz als Erfolgsfaktor für Unternehmen der Schweiz

The area of responsibility that Selecta has adopted are coffee cups from vending machines: all the emissions created by these cups and stirrers are offset by a carbon offset project in Peru.

Selecta is well known for its beverage and snack machines. The company has decided to record all the carbon emissions for its coffee cups and stirrers, ranging from manufacturing and transport, to the coffee machine and disposal. Selecta also sets reduction targets and minimises the carbon footprint for its products. The company offsets all unabated emissions for the cups and stirrers by supporting our carbon offset project for clean cook stoves in Peru.

"We strive to minimise our carbon footprint and supply carbon neutral products to our customers. This is how we have set out to become the most climate-friendly supplier of snack machine catering concepts in Switzerland."
