Truly Compostable Coffee Capsules

100% Natural, home compostable capsules that degrade with zero microplastics

Innovative Technology for a Cleaner Cup

 

With over 60 billion coffee capsules consumed each year worldwide, the environmental impact of single serve coffee capsules is staggering. Currently made from either multiple layers and components of plastic or aluminium, most coffee capsules are technically recyclable but only a very small proportion find their way to specialist recycling centres.

 

Solinatra is a revolutionary biomaterial that is both biodegradable and compostable, and the used coffee capsules break down in the same time frame as a banana skin. Suitable for food waste bins and garden compost bins, the environmentally friendly coffee pods offer a simple solution for customers who want delicious coffee without the bitter taste from their environmental footprint.

Truly Sustainable, Truly Innovative

  • Solinatra capsules use innovative technologies and patented processes to make cup of coffee that’s better for you and the planet. Made using plant waste from harvested crops, giving purpose to a waste product, and with a carbon footprint a fraction of traditional plastic or aluminium options.

  • Within a minute of your coffee pouring, the capsules turn white! This is simply an effect of the hot water on the natural material, it roughens the surface of the material which aids the process of biodegrading.

  • Coffee grounds are great for compost and now your coffee capsules are too! Solinatra capsules can go in your garden compost bin or food waste collection, and will degrade in the same time frame as a banana peel, with zero harmful microplastics or pollutants.
