Lavazza, “Italy’s Favorite Coffee,” introduces the first compostable coffee capsule for Italian espresso in partnership with biochemical corporation, Novamont. The compostable capsule can be disposed of along with other organic waste and processed industrially to become compost. The capsule, compatible with the Lavazza Minù coffee machine, will be available initially in Italy beginning in 2016. It contains two high-quality blends of 100 percent Arabica coffee beans certified by Rainforest Alliance, which verifies the economic, environmental and social sustainability of raw materials.
