All compatible capsules (both plastic and aluminium variants) accounted for over one-third of the single serve capsules market worldwide in 2020, a staggering increase of over 9 billion units in comparison with 2018. Virtually all proprietary systems fillers have now diversified their brand presence to accommodate Nespresso and Dolce Gusto compatible variants, either in-house or via contractpacking agreements.

The Nespresso capsules market is now in the process of dramatic transition from plastic to aluminium. As a result, the industry has been gearing up to accommodate the change, both on the filling side (with investment in aluminium filling lines and retrofits) and on the empty capsule supply side, whereby compatibles suppliers are having to diversify their portfolio to include aluminium. There are very high barriers to entry with aluminium, so the competitive context has been intense, and the ‘aluminium game’ will determine new winners and losers. Meanwhile, innovation in plastic capsules focuses on recycling-ready PP solutions, including polyolefin-based lidding film. Provided that other materials in the multilayer structure do not exceed 5%, used capsules can in theory be recycled in the PP packaging waste stream.
