Almost all waste generated on board Viking Line’s vessels is transported ashore for recycling, reuse or composting. During the spring, we began collecting coffee grounds as material for garden soil in partnership with VG EcoFuel. The recycling of coffee grounds reduces the need for virgin peat moss in soil production. Coffee grounds are collected from five of Viking Line’s vessels along with cooking oil from the onboard restaurants. The coffee grounds are then transported to Saarijärvi in central Finland to be used as raw material for Finnish-based Berner Oy’s GreenCare range of fertilizer
