07 Apr 2023 --- The European Bioplastics (EUBP) association is calling on the EU Parliament and Council to include coffee capsules in the proposed list for mandatorily compostable packaging applications as set out in the EC’s proposal for revised packaging rules (PPWR). “To my mind, it’s quite simple – when you compost coffee capsules, you’re able to use packaging and the precious organic matter in the compost where it improves the carbon-nitrogen ratio in the compost,” Hasso von Pogrell, managing director at EUBP tells PackagingInsights.
