Recycling your illy iperespresso capsules is completely free and very easy.

As an ethical sustainable coffee brand, illy seeks to minimise the packaging we use to recycle our products.

To this end, we suggest you repack used illy iperespresso capsules into their original packaging and send to the recycler via Australia Post. 

THE ILLY CAPSULE RECYCLING PROCESS

Step 1: Drain the used capsules in a colander or sink to minimise excess water.
Step 2: Load used capsules into the original illy capsule tin.
Step 3: Repack the 6 tins of used capsules into the original carton.
Step 4: Print of the pre-paid Australia Post label here.
Step 5: Post box via Australia Post.

WHAT HAPPENS TO THE WASTE

Once collected, the illy iperespresso capsules are processed to separate the coffee grounds from the plastic. The plastic is then melted down in order to be remoulded to make new recycled products, including furniture and playground equipment!
