Sustainability. What does it mean in our case?

Sustainability is a major topic and actually the absolute core of what we do, so whether you get any product offered by us in your hands, you can be sure that it contains Kampot pepper grown in a sustainable way. Moreover, it is always processed sustainably further. What does this mean in our case?

Environmental Friendliness

Every peppercorn from .pepper..field bathed in the rays of the Cambodian sun, absorbed the moisture of the Kampot jungles, and at the moment it was ready for harvest, it was taken by a farmer who cultivated it in the same way as generations of farmers before him. That is, without any chemical fertilizers or pesticides against pests – grown completely sustainably, in an undisturbed environment, the soil is not degraded and the water is not contaminated, no jungles are cut down, and no greenhouse gases escape into the air.

Recyclable Packaging and Natural Materials

We continue this natural way of growing pepper here in Prague as well. We try to pack all the grains into packaging that is easily biodegradable or recyclable for nature, so we can close their cycle into a loop. Ideally, when  you use our beautiful packaging again and again for any household use. Therefore, we mainly work with glass and wood. 

Unfortunately, some of our products are still packed in plastic bags, which is mainly because there are not many alternatives on the market yet that would meet strict hygienic criteria and our demands for preserving pepper at maximum freshness. However, we try to choose from available options one that burdens the environment as little as possible and is fully recyclable and reusable. At the same time, by buying  quality pepper, a pinch is always enough and the food is seasoned to perfection – the smaller the amount, the less packaging material is consumed!

100% Fair Cooperation and Purchase at a Fair Price

The last sustainable path we love most of all is primarily the entire essence of our project, which is based on fair trade, direct trade, and help. We constantly try to teach, educate, and assist our farmers' families with all processes so that they can permanently always sell their Kampot pepper at a fair price, even if we are not helping them at the moment.

This is our path to sustainability, which we try to pass on to our customers as well.
