Why coffee ships in jute
Green coffee is a living product that continues to respire and carry moisture, and the fibre it travels in has to let that moisture out. Jute's natural open weave breathes, preventing the condensation and mould that can build up inside sealed synthetic packaging — while remaining strong enough to protect the beans through months of transit and handling. That combination of breathability and strength is why jute remains the trade-standard sack for specialty and commercial green coffee.
The 60kg and 69kg export standards
Coffee moves in country-specific standard bag weights, and we manufacture to whichever your trade uses. The 60kg bag is standard for much of Central and South America; 69kg is standard for Colombia; East African origins commonly use 60kg. We supply these standards — and custom capacities — with the weave, weight and finish your buyer or certifier specifies.
Printing, lining and food safety
Origin and branding print
We print origin marks, grade, lot numbers, cooperative or estate branding and certification logos in up to multiple colours, so your bags arrive market-ready and traceable.
Hermetic liners for specialty coffee
For specialty lots that need tighter moisture and oxygen control, jute bags can be paired with a hermetic (GrainPro-type) inner liner — jute for protection and presentation, the liner for barrier control.
Food-grade assurance
Coffee is a food product, so we can supply food-grade, batching-oil-safe jute and align documentation with the food-contact expectations of your destination market.

Frequently Asked Questions
Why are jute bags used for coffee instead of plastic?
Because jute breathes. Green coffee respires and carries moisture; jute's open weave lets that moisture escape and prevents the condensation and mould that can form inside sealed synthetic bags, while still protecting the beans in transit.
What is the difference between a 60kg and 69kg coffee bag?
They are the standard export weights for different origins — 60kg is standard across much of Central/South America and East Africa, while 69kg is the Colombian standard. We manufacture to whichever your trade uses, plus custom capacities.
Can you print our cooperative or estate branding?
Yes. We print origin marks, grade, lot numbers, certification logos and your branding in up to multiple colours, so bags arrive traceable and market-ready.
Do you supply food-grade coffee bags?
Yes — we can supply food-grade, batching-oil-safe jute and align documentation with your destination market's food-contact requirements.
