Newsy
The new K-Rounds pods will be made of coffee beans wrapped in a plant-based coating, eliminating the need for any plastic or aluminum casing.
Keurig has unveiled plans for brand-new coffee pods that are compostable and not made from plastic.
The new K-Rounds pods will be made of coffee beans that are pressed and wrapped in a plant-based coating that eliminates the need for any plastic or aluminum casing.
But the pods won't work on just any machine.
The new eco-friendly pods will be launched in conjunction with the company's new Keurig Alta brewer, which will allow customers to brew a variety of hot and cold beverages.
Keurig will allow consumers to weigh in on various beta testing phases of the Keurig Alta system as early as the fall, and will leverage learnings before rolling out the machine for sale.
