Coffex Coffee Recycling Impact Report: Turning Waste into Climate ActionGHG Emissions, and PCF Assessments
Coffex Coffee (M) Sdn. Bhd. is a leading coffee company in Malaysia with a strong commitment to sustainability. To extend this commitment, Coffex partnered with Zero Waste Earth Store (ZWES) to organize a series of Recycling Days at its headquarters in Petaling Jaya.
To ensure that these community efforts translated into measurable results, Coffex engaged SuSciCo Sdn. Bhd., an ESG and climate consulting firm. Together, we prepared a recycling impact report to quantify the emissions avoided through responsible waste management.
challenge
Coffex wanted more than just a successful recycling event. They needed evidence that their actions created a real climate benefit. Delivering a credible recycling impact report required overcoming several challenges:
-
Complex waste streams: Events collected e-waste, paper, metals, plastics, textiles, and even used cooking oil, each with different environmental impacts.
-
Credible measurement: Coffex needed clear proof of emissions avoided, not just the weight of materials collected.
-
Community engagement: Success depended on motivating employees and participants to actively contribute.
solution
SuSciCo applied its expertise in greenhouse gas accounting to prepare a transparent recycling impact report.
-
We compared landfill and recycling scenarios using a gate-to-grave life cycle approach.
-
We used internationally recognized EPA emission factors to calculate emissions avoided.
-
We translated technical results into easy-to-understand equivalents such as kilometers not driven by cars, smartphones charged, or trees grown.
-
We worked closely with ZWES to ensure accurate data collection at every event.
This approach ensured that Coffex’s recycling efforts were recorded as science-based climate action.
results
The recycling impact report highlighted the power of Coffex’s initiative:
-
Across three Recycling Days, Coffex diverted more than a tonne of waste from landfill.
-
The effort avoided significant greenhouse gas emissions, equivalent to everyday actions people can relate to, like reducing car travel or powering thousands of smartphones.
-
High-impact waste streams such as paper and e-waste delivered the largest environmental benefits by preventing methane emissions, toxic leachates, and virgin resource extraction.
-
The results showed how community recycling can be turned into credible evidence of climate leadership.
