Instruments that guide in the right direction are needed to create the prerequisites for better climate work in Europe. That is why Löfbergs together with 18 other companies have signed a letter to the Ministers of Energy in the European Union regarding updating and tightening the EU’s climate change strategy and targets.
All set: the coffee roaster Löfbergs will be the official coffee partner for FIS Alpine World Ski Championships in Åre, Sweden, 5-17 February 2019. FIS Alpine World Ski Championships is the largest winter sports event in the world, next to the Winter Olympic Games.
The Swedish tradition of fika is well-known all over the world, something the coffee roaster Löfbergs will pay attention to at SIAL Canada in Montreal May 2ndto 4th. At their showcase Löfbergs will present an homage in the form of Fika, a light dark-roast and well-balanced ground coffee with notes of cacao.
Good coffee cannot be taken for granted as fewer and fewer young people see a future as coffee farmers. Löfbergs wants to change that. The family-owned coffee roaster presents a new coffee with beans from Ana-Maria and other young farmers in Antioquia in north-western Colombia, combined with carefully selected Arabica beans from Brazil.
The Swedish tradition of fika is well-known all over the world. The coffee roaster Löfbergs is now presenting an homage in the form of Fika, a light dark-roast and well-balanced ground coffee with notes of cacao. It goes especially well together with a cinnamon roll or a raw food cookie with chocolate and raspberries.
Löfbergs is once again being acknowledged for its sustainability work. This time, Scandic is handing out its sustainability award to the family-owned coffee roaster. Löfbergs’s sustainability manager Eva Eriksson received the Scandic Sustainability Award 2018 at a ceremony in Stockholm, Sweden.
The roasting has been a great sustainability challenge for a long time, and the coffee roaster Löfbergs has actively been working to find an alternative to conventional LPG. Löfbergs is now taking a huge step in the right direction. By blending in Bio LPG, Löfbergs will reach its goal of reducing its climate impact with at least 40 per cent by 2020.
Those who manage to gather 100 points within the most esteemed education system in the coffee business are few. Anna Nordström at the coffee roaster Löfbergs is now one of them. And she has the piece of paper to show for it in her office in Karlstad, Sweden: a unique diploma from The Speciality Coffee Association (SCA).
Löfbergs continues to grow outside Sweden's borders. The family-owned coffee roaster is now taking the step into the North American market and forms a subsidiary in Canada.
Löfbergs was the first to remove aluminium from the coffee packaging in Sweden in 1993. The company now wants to replace the oil-based plastic with a plant-based alternative. The family-owned coffee roaster is therefore trying a new packaging mainly made of sugar canes. If the tests are successful, Löfbergs hopes to be able to replace all fossil plastic in their packaging by 2020.
The world's coffee farmers are getting older and older. At the same time, fewer young people see a future in coffee. That makes one of the greatest challenges of the business is to get more young women & men to grow coffee. The Swedish coffee roaster Löfbergs takes this as a starting point in an investment that will improve the conditions and the development opportunities for young coffee farmers.
It is strong as an elephant, quiet as a mouse, and it reduces carbon emissions with up to 92 per cent. Scania's new hybrid made its first appearance in Sweden today. The maiden journey took place in Karlstad, where it transports coffee between Löfbergs's roasting house in central Karlstad and the new warehouse in Välsviken.
