Aroma Protection?
An Airtight Argument
Ground coffee is sensitive to oxygen. Strong aroma protection is required for long-lasting coffee enjoyment.
The capsules have an extremely effective oxygen barrier. It protects the aroma and taste and ensures a long shelf life, without the need for additional packaging.
In addition, the natural capsule material is completely tasteless.
This allows you to offer your customers an innovative product that combines enjoyment with sustainability.
