Melitta
Melitta is a German company that produces coffee, coffee filters, and coffee makers. It was founded in 1908 by Melitta Bentz, who invented the first coffee filter. The company is still family-owned and operated, with its headquarters in Minden, Germany.
History
Melitta Bentz invented the first coffee filter in 1908. She was looking for a way to brew coffee without leaving grounds in the cup. She experimented with different materials and eventually found that blotting paper from her son's school notebook worked best. She patented her invention and started the Melitta company.
The company grew rapidly and by the 1920s, it was producing more than 100,000 filters a day. In the 1930s, Melitta introduced the first electric coffee maker. The company continued to innovate and expand, introducing new products and entering new markets.
Products
Melitta produces a wide range of coffee-related products. These include:
- Coffee: Melitta offers a variety of coffee blends, including whole bean, ground, and single-serve pods.
- Coffee Filters: The company continues to produce coffee filters in a variety of sizes and types.
- Coffee Makers: Melitta produces both manual and electric coffee makers, including drip and pour-over models.
Sustainability
Melitta is committed to sustainability and has implemented a number of initiatives to reduce its environmental impact. These include using renewable energy sources, reducing water consumption, and recycling waste. The company also sources its coffee beans from sustainable and fair-trade sources.
