Our sustainability approach is unique due to being completely embedded in all our operations. Our holistic approach, booster together with several business and NGO partners, reflects our vertically integrated business model by ensuring sustainability from coffee acquisition to our products’ end the life. Our on-site sustainability approach in coffee producing countries, conducted via the Nespresso AAA Sustainable Quality ™ Program ™, is unique. Additionally, Nespresso was very pro-active in the development of recycling solutions for its used capsules in the markets we do business, in cases where national waste treatment solutions did not accept used capsules. We therefore urged governments to change legislation so that capsule recycling solutions would be accepted; to join industry stakeholders together and drive a more comprehensive change like the implementation of new technological solutions for aluminium and steel recovery; or to define a standard for responsibly acquiring aluminium.
