Benefits for the planet
Increased recycling and logistics efficiency.
CoffeeCoins are more than 10 times lighter than regular used capsules. Not only that, CoffeeCoins are also 90% smaller than a regular used capsule. Imagine the difference that makes in recycling traffic! On a large scale it could reduce recycling traffic by 90%. Plus, since the grounds are already removed, CoffeeCoins can skip the industrial shredding and washing process. That’s efficiency from start to finish.
Prevent emissions from the landfilling of capsules
Used coffee capsules trap the organic grounds within their aluminum shells, which can release harmful methane in landfills that take centuries to break down. By separating the used coffee grounds from the aluminum with CoffeeCoiner, and recycling them properly, you help reducing greenhouse gas emissions and prevent long-term pollution.
Prevent environmentally harmful mining activities
By recycling aluminum, you eliminate the need for energy-intensive mining activities.
Recycling aluminum uses 95% less energy than making it from raw ore.
In addition to the energy intensity of mining, these activities also cause deforestation, soil
erosion, loss of biodiversity, and water pollution.
