The History of Podback
This is how Podback first started their journey to create several ways the UK recycle their coffee pods.
For a number of years, Nespresso, Tassimo and Nescafe Dolce Gusto have invested in recycling collection services and set-up dedicated processing facilities which have been successful in their own right.
Nespresso has been running a UK and Ireland recycling scheme for its aluminium pods for 10 years, with over a third (39%) of all pods recycled.
Tassimo and L’OR have been working with TerraCycle for over ten years to provide a route for consumers to recycle their coffee pods and packaging.
Nescafé Dolce Gusto set up its own recycling service in December 2018, which has been operational since January 2019. Through the scheme, consumers can return their Dolce Gusto pods via any Collect+ drop off point.
To simplify recycling for consumers and drive participation, Nestle & JDE have joined forces to create Podback, a member-based collection and recycling scheme for beverage pods.
