As a B Corp

Infinite possibilities

Since launching our first recycling scheme in 1991, we’ve embarked on a journey towards a more circular model, designed to use less and keep materials in use for longer. At the heart of our commitment to B Corp values, this ambition continues to grow. From precision consumption to refurbished coffee machines.

All in for recycling

Over the last 30 years, together, we’ve strived to give the aluminum and used coffee grounds in our capsules a new lease of life. 9 out of 10 customers now have a recycling collection point within 5 km. This is just the beginning, as we use more recycled content and extend recycling through industry-wide collective systems.

Infinitely recyclable aluminum

100,000+ collection points across the globe

Original capsules are made using at least 80 % recycled aluminium

Most of Vertuo capsules are made using at least 85 % recycled aluminium

Doing our bit

To make recycling easier and more convenient, we have created a recycling scheme with more than 100,000 collection points worldwide, including home collection and postal services. So your coffee grounds can be transformed into renewable energy sources on compost, and your capsules can become new aluminum objects.
