Global Coffee Pods and Capsules Market: Drivers
Global Coffee Pods and Capsules Market: Restraints
Wastage of plastic capsules leading to environmental damage
Environmental concern associated with the plastic capsules that end up in landfills every year, contributing to the growing plastic pollution, is expected to restrict market growth. The plastic in coffee pods takes more than 500 years to break down, releasing harmful amounts of methane gas as it does so. Thus, to tackle this issue, several new entrants are innovating sustainable packing solutions. For instance, in September 2022, Cafe Royal invented a coffee pod in the shape of a ball. This ball is coated in a thin shell made of a vegetable layer, which is 100% compostable. The product is a true zero-waste capsule.
High cost related to coffee pods and capsules
The high cost of coffee pods is one of the biggest challenges adversely affecting the overall growth of the market, as using coffee pods is more expensive than using ground coffee or whole coffee beans. For instance, Nescafe Dolce Gusto PRELUDIO costs US$ 4.85, while Nescafe Coffee Classic (a 100-gram jar) costs US$3.52. The NESCAFÉ Dolce Gusto Pod is a sophisticated extraction cell made of several components that work together to uniquely adjust the pressure to each capsule
Global Coffee Pods and Capsules Market: Opportunity
Rise in consumption of coffee pods and capsules in developing countries
The increasing consumption of coffee pods and capsules in developing countries is anticipated to offer lucrative growth prospects in the foreseeable future. For example, in recent years, the consumption of traditional drip coffee has been decreasing, while automatic espresso machines and pod and capsule machines have been steadily increasing and have gained market share, particularly in China, a predominantly tea-consuming nation.
Effective projection of recycling plastic capsules
The advent of recycling plastic capsules is projected to offer significant growth opportunities for market players over the forecast period. For instance, in 2021, Nespresso launched its first coffee capsules made using 80% recycled aluminum. These capsules were made from 95% recycled material earlier this year, in March. Further, by the end of 2021, Nespresso targets having all machines sold in this new packaging, which, in turn, will boost market growth of pods and capsules. Nestlé Nespresso S.A., trading as Nespresso, is an operating unit of the Nestlé Group, based in Lausanne, Switzerland. Nespresso machines brew espresso and coffee from coffee capsules, a type of pre-apportioned single-use container, or reusable capsules, of ground coffee beans, sometimes with added flavorings
