Organic Farming
This product is worth it
Tea is a pleasure that promotes well-being and personal health. For tea to realize its full potential, a conscious, sustainable approach to farming is required. As a natural product, the quality of tea depends on the working methods of individual growers.
Organic farming includes the application of organic fertilizer, while the crop is allowed to grow at its own natural pace, developing a stronger flavor in the process. We support this kind of sustainable farming: with our very own initiatives in the countries of origin; and by providing assistance to farmers who want to adopt organic farming methods and processing, as well as fair working conditions.
Sustainability
Acting responsibly and with respect
Since its formation, Kloth & Köhnken espouses sustainable values. This is how we contribute to a tomorrow in harmony with nature itself. We take on this responsibility as the logical consequence of our environment-conscious everyday actions.
We pursue this goal together with our partners. We support everyone who adopts sustainable farming practices with our expert knowledge and personal engagement. Furthermore, as a dedicated member, we influence standpoints and policies of several leading industry associations.
That’s how we create the conditions for positively impactful business. Uncompromising in regards of product quality, trading that product with outmost respect. It’s an investment in the future – its own reward.
Our projects
Taking the Initiative
Sustainable actions cannot be decreed. They have to be learned. Through development partnerships we actively help Chinese tea farmers on their path toward greater environmental sustainability and improved quality management.
Since 2007, we have been working with selected tea gardens to make organic tea cultivation more transparent and future-oriented. We are particularly proud of our long-standing partnerships in the regions of origin of our teas. Here, our partners dictate the pace at which they adopt environmentally friendly practices. K&K provides ongoing support throughout this development process. That’s how we establish a reliable framework for transparent, long-term tea production, culminating in a premium product.
At the same time, we set sensible prices for our teas that are well-accepted in the European market.
