Our 2022 Sustainability Promise 🌍
We are a business that deeply cares about the planet and this year, we are dedicated to becoming more sustainable and environmentally friendly. In 2022 we promise to:
- Keep all non dairy milks free of charge
We don’t believe you should be charged for the choices you make, so we’ve made all non dairy milks totally free - Reducing single use plastics in all stores
By switching our smoothie cups to 100% recyclable, we have saved 64,000 plastic cups from going to landfill - 100% plastic & PLA free coffee cups
No more plastic – these coffee cups are widely recyclable!
Eating in?
- Our delicious crêpes, waffles and mini pancakes are served on metal plates with steel cutlery when eating-in for most of our stores to avoid unnecessary plastic waste.
- Crêpeaffaire serves all hot drink-in beverages in our ceramic mugs or glass cups to reduce wastage where possible.
- At Crêpeaffaire we only use paper straws across our stores to help reduce the number of plastic straws are thrown away each year- often ending up in our oceans.
Taking out?
- If customers would like to take their crêpes & drinks away with them we encourage you to bring your own reusable cup for your hot drinks, by offering 25p off, to save on plastic waste.
- Our takeaway packaging is all biodegradable, from our takeaway cardboard boxes, on-the-run card cones, paper bags and cutlery!
Palm Oil
We are committed to participation in the Sustainable Palm Oil City project. Crêpeaffaire is working with suppliers to ensure that where palm oil is present in our food, it will be sourced from sustainable sources. By doing so we know that we are helping to protect wildlife around the world from the impact of unsustainable agricultural practices.
Water Refill
Refill is a free tap water initiative designed to reduce plastic pollution and promote healthy hydration by making refilling a water bottle easy, social and rewarding! We’re introducing this scheme across many of our stores to ensure you can stay hydrated easily and to reduce the plastic waste within our local communities. Find us on the Refill app here!
