One such process converts grease waste into compostable material in a complex drying process.

Almost all of the 'To Go' packaging is fully compostable, while Honey Truffle also promote their Keep Cup policy, offering customers discounts on coffee and other beverages when using re-usable cups. Sensor lights have been set up in the kitchens, reducing electricity and resulting in no wastage.
