NEXE Innovations launches compostable espresso pods

In Canada, NEXE Innovations Inc. is launching its premium espresso pods in the U.S. and Canada at nexecoffee.com on July 29, 2021.

This is the first NEXE-branded coffee product that the Company is introducing into the single-serve coffee pod market that is currently valued at more than $25 billion annually.  Approximately 56 billion coffee pods are consumed each year which end up in the landfill and can take up to 500 years to decompose, leaving behind contamination and microplastics. Recyclable pods often include non-recyclable plastic and aluminum – making them less likely to be recycled properly or recycled at all.

NEXE has invested over six years into research and development to create its proprietary and fully compostable coffee pod. The new Nespresso® compatible pod breaks down in as little as just 30 days, similar to the time it takes for an apple core to decompose. 

The NEXE pods are compatible with the popular Nespresso OriginalLine® machines and are manufactured and packaged in the Company’s operations plant. Manufacturing its products in-house avoids unnecessary delays and shipping costs while controlling recipe development and trade secrets.
