A Nespresso considers the reduction of its carbon footprint particularly important, therefore like in other Western European countries has launched its capsule recycling program in Hungary too.
All Nespresso Grand Cru capsules are made of aluminium, as this is the most appropriate material to preserve the perfect quality and freshness of our coffee.
After the separation of components, coffee grounds can be upgraded in a number of ways. They can be used for example as a natural fertiliser for agriculture or as an energy source for domestic heating.
The recycling of used coffee capsules in Hungary has been fully elaborated by Nespresso and these are carried out within the territory of Hungary. Recycling of both aluminium and coffee grounds are held by our professional partners, aluminium continues its was in aluminium production and coffee grounds is reused as energy resource.
Currently you are able to bring your used coffee capsules to our used coffee capsule container in the Nespresso Boutiques, however Nespresso elaborates new collecting system to triplicate its capacity in order to increase the number of recycled capsules to 75 %.
The Nespresso Boutiques can be found on the following address:
Nespresso Boutique:
Nespresso mini Boutique:
We are on to make the process more easier and wider. There is an opportunity to send the used capsules back by the DHL courrier service. During your order delivery they can recieve your used capsules to be recycled.
