Italian coffee maker Nespresso teamed up with Swedish bicycle manufacturer Vélosophy to make bicycles out of recycled coffee capsules.
In recent years, popular capsule coffee machine, as long as the capsule into the machine, wait less than a minute to enjoy the freshly brewed coffee. However, this coffee machine is not loved by everyone.
The disposable coffee capsules have come under fire from environmentalists. Nespresso coffee capsules are made of aluminum and cannot be recycled by ordinary recycling yards. They can only be recycled by the company itself.
Nespresso launched this recycling capsule bike program to encourage users to participate in capsule recycling.
Nespresso CEO Jean-Marc Duvoisin said in a statement that through the partnership with Vélosophy, capsule coffee lovers can be shown the potential of recycling capsules. "Using recycled capsules to create beautiful bikes, Vélosophy combines sustainability and fashion, incorporating the importance of recycling into life," he says.
The bike, made from 300 recycled coffee capsules, has a bright purple color like the Nespresso Apecchio capsule, a capsule-shaped bell on the front and a drink holder basket.
In addition, for every bicycle sold, Vélosophy will donate a bicycle to African students to help them go to school.
Hamburg, Germany, banned government agencies from using capsule coffee machines as early as 2016. A Hamburg government spokesman said each capsule could produce six grams of coffee but three grams of waste.
Nespresso says its coffee capsules can be recycled and recycling programs are in place in more than 53 countries. However, other brands of coffee capsules cannot be recycled because they contain plastic.
