Supermarket chain Morrisons has announced that it will install dedicated collection points in more than 350 stores nationwide in partnership with Podback, a specialist capsule recycling service. The implementation of these new recycling points will begin in July.
Shoppers will have the option of obtaining Podback recycling bags free of charge at customer service counters in Morrisons stores. In addition, with the launch of these new points for depositing filled bags in stores, customers can incorporate this action into their shopping routine at Morrisons.
In 2022 Morrisons became the first retailer to support Podback by offering free coffee capsule recycling bags in all its stores.
In July 2023, a collection point program was implemented in 29 commercial establishments. Although it was initially planned for eight weeks, its duration was extended due to consumer acceptance and plans were made to expand it nationwide.
Since the end of March of this year, the pilot stores have collected approximately 42,300 kilograms of capsules, or a weekly average of 37 kilograms per store. In total, about 2.8 million capsules were collected during this period.
