Rösternest – when a love of coffee meets the perfect packaging

For Steffi and Achim, coffee is more than just a drink – it is a passion, an experience and a way of life. With their roastery, Rösternest, they have built a brand that stands for diversity and quality. Each variety has its own character, and that is exactly what should be visible. "We wanted to make the diversity of flavours visible in the packaging too. That's why we developed a colourful design," they explain.

And that's exactly where we label makers came in: with flexible packaging solutions that are not only colourful and customisable, but also suitable for a small roastery – economical, sustainable and professional.

From label dilemma to ideal solution

But how do you reconcile a colourful design with the requirements of a small roastery? Small print runs, fair prices and the highest quality – at first, this seemed almost impossible for Steffi and Achim. "We had already considered using standard packaging with labels. That would have been a solution, but not what we really wanted," recalls Achim.

The vision was clear: customised pouches that are as versatile as their coffee varieties. But how could this be achieved in small quantities and without a huge budget? This is precisely where a partner was needed who could make the seemingly impossible possible: small print runs, complete design freedom and still affordable. With our flexible solutions, we at Labelisten achieved exactly that, creating the perfect combination of Rösternest's creativity and the requirements of a small roastery.

Our shared journey

For us at Labelisten, it was immediately clear: this is exactly where we can help. Rösternest wanted colourful, customised pouches, but without huge order quantities and still in top quality. Just our thing. We don't have a minimum order quantity, but we still offer the full range: clean workmanship, brilliant colours and packaging that stands out on the shelf.

"Working with you is extremely enjoyable and super efficient at the same time," says the team at Rösternest. We love this feedback because it shows that good packaging and relaxed collaboration go hand in hand.

Another plus point is our digital ordering system. Instead of endless coordination, Steffi and Achim can upload their designs, configure pouches and place orders directly – all in one system. "This individuality, flexibility and speed takes a huge load off our shoulders and speeds up our go-to-market process," says Rösternest.

And that's exactly what makes the difference: less time spent on organisation, more space for creativity, product development – and, of course, for the coffee itself.

Quality meets sustainability

In addition to design and speed, the functionality of the packaging is a key issue. That is why the pouches are equipped with an aroma protection barrier and valve – so that the special flavour of the beans is preserved for a long time. This makes a decisive difference, especially with high-quality coffee.

Sustainability was also a priority for Steffi and Achim from the outset: "We were determined to use recyclable materials." No sooner said than done – today, their packaging is made entirely from recyclable components. This combines quality, freshness and a clear conscience in packaging that is impressive in every way.

Rösternest & Labelisten: More than just packaging

After working together for some time, we agree: Rösternest and Labelisten are a perfect match. Or as Steffi and Achim like to say: "All in all, we have found the perfect packaging partner in Labelisten."

For us, this trust is a wonderful sign that our philosophy is working: empowering small businesses, supporting their stories and creating packaging that emphasises the character of a product as much as its taste.
