The holidays are coming, and you’re probably starting to stress about what to gift everyone on your list. You know there’s a good idea out there somewhere, but all you can think of are the generic clichés (socks, advent calendar, book, you name it).
If only there was something that most people loved and needed (daily), but hadn’t yet invested in. And maybe this daily joy was even more necessary now, and dearly missed, because they were working from home. But is there such a thing?
Ah, of course! Coffee. It’s the perfect idea, but where to begin? What do you get that coffee lover in your life, for that person who misses picking up a cup on their way to work and lunch coffee runs?
BURLINGTON, Mass. and PLANO, Texas Keurig Dr Pepper (NASDAQ: KDP) announced that it has successfully achieved one of its longstanding sustainability commitments – all of the K-Cup® pods the Company produces are now recyclable.
The extensive effort involved converting more than 100 manufacturing lines to produce the pods now made from polypropylene #5 plastic. In addition, new packaging for the recyclable K-Cup pods features a green recyclable flag as well as the industry-respected How2Recycle® label that clearly communicates recycling instructions to consumers[1].
Keurig Dr Pepper produces approximately 80% of the coffee pods sold at retail[2] for use in Keurig® brewers and, earlier this year, began shipping to retailers the new recyclable format, which is now largely transitioned on retail shelves.
