We use aluminium for the capsules protecting our Grands Crus to ensure you get the freshest cup of quality coffee every time. It provides the best protection against oxygen, light and humidity, which can really affect taste.
But that’s just the start of it — aluminium is also 100 percent and infinitely recyclable, meaning Nespresso coffee capsules start as and become new aluminium products once recycled. What else? Check it out below.

It keeps its inherent properties no matter how many times it's recycled.
Our capsules can be recycled into drink cans, bicycles, computers, the coloured side panels of our Pixie machines and new capsules.
100% of our Club Members will have access to a convenient recycling solution by 2020
