We've designed each aspect of our product to be recyclable.
Like soda and beer cans, our aluminum capsules are lined with polypropylene for food safety. Polypropylene is one of the safest commercial non-toxic plastic and does not contain Bisphenol A (BPA), which are known to pose health risks. This makes it a preferred choice for food applications, as it does not introduce harmful chemicals into the food.
Cometeer capsules are generally curbside recyclable, but we encourage you to reach out to your local municipal recycling program with any specific questions or concerns.
Additionally, the insulation's primary material is kraft paper, which sorts alongside cardboard. In the repulping process, the bio-based starch insulation inside dissolves, and the useful fibers from the kraft paper are retained for use in new paper-based products.
