COMPOSTABLE
COFFEE PODS
A Better Choice For A Better World
"Our mission is to make coffee businesses give better choices to everyone. Better for the environent, so better for consumers, and after all, better for businesses too."
Compostable Packaging
Looplas™ Coffee Pod
Plastic have become an integral part of our modern life. Single serve coffee pods (K-cups) are one good example which offers the convenience, variety, consistency and time-saving we desire daily. However, their increasing popularity has challenged the problems of waste and raised the question of how best to avoid coffee pods ending up in the landfills. To contribute to more sustainable plastic life cycles as part of a circular economy, Korpack has created Looplas™ Coffee Pod made from 100% biomaterials that can completely break down within 12 weeks in the industrial composting facility.
Check with your local council to see if composting services are offered in your location. After brewing is done, throw the pod into your compostable waste bin.
How To Dispose
"Coffee grounds are rich in nutrient and high in nitrogen. They are considered valuable organic materials to be added to composting pile. Let's bring our coffee pods to compost."
Technical Stuffs To Know
TÜV AUSTRIA Certification: Tests & Requirements
Looplas Coffee Pods are certified by OK COMPOST INDUSTRIAL and fully compliant with the EU Standard EN13432 as specified below.
-
Disintegration occurs when the heat (58%±2°C) and moisture in the compost pile fragment the long polymers into smaller polymers and lactic acid molecules. After 3 months, >90% of particles must be less than 2x2mm in size.
-
Biodegradation occurs as microorganisms in compost and soil consume the polymer fragments as nutrients. After 6 months, >90% of the original material must be converted to CO2.
