Coffee capsules are often criticised for using a disproportionate amount of raw materials - especially virgin plastic - for a relatively easy-to-prepare drink. The Austrian packaging company Greiner Packaging has now designed a capsule made from post-consumer recyclate for Nestl\u00e9. It uses material from LyondellBasell.<\/strong><\/p>

The chemical company LyondellBasell develops Polymers based on PCR<\/strong>, with the help of Greiner Packaging<\/a> in the production of coffee capsules for Nescaf\u00e9 Dolce Gusto from Nestl\u00e9<\/a> are used. These polymers are produced in a recycling process under the brand name CirculenRevive. In this process, plastic waste is first converted into raw material in order to produce subsequently produce new polymers with the same properties as virgin material<\/strong>.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

These polymers also fulfil the strict requirements of the food industry and the LyondellBasell and Greiner Packaging sites involved in the capsule production process are ISCC-PLUS certified. This worldwide certification scheme guarantees Transparent traceability along the entire supply chain<\/strong>. The chemical company uses a mass balance approach to determine the amount of recycled material used in the manufacturing process of CirculenRevive products. The recycled content can be allocated to the final polymer via a sustainability declaration.<\/strong><\/p>

\u201eWe are very happy to be realising this forward-looking project. Our aim is to use as much recycled material as possible for our packaging.<\/strong> We are therefore convinced that we must utilise every opportunity to achieve this goal and make our packaging more sustainable. We are delighted to be part of this project, which once again emphasises the importance of collaboration along the entire value chain. With collaborations like this, we are confident, to be able to realise a circular economy together as an industry in the near future<\/strong>\u201e, says Manfred Stanek, CEO of Greiner Packaging.<\/p>
