Why has Nespresso chosen aluminium capsules?
• Nespresso opted for aluminum for its preserving qualities that completely protect the ground coffee from air and light. As a result, our consumers are able to savour the full richness and quality of the aromas and flavours of the freshly roasted and ground coffee with each and every cup. Nespresso is moreover committed towards environmentally-friendly practices through the recycling of its used capsules. Switzerland has a unique network of 1190 collection points. The aluminium, a 100% and infinitely recyclable material, is melted down and reused in other high quality products. The coffee grounds are used as fertiliser.
