Every day, more than 40 million single-serve coffee pods are tossed into landfills. That’s not just wasteful—it’s unsustainable. At Cambio Roasters, we believe it’s time to turn this trend on its head. Our mission is to revolutionize how the world experiences single-serve coffee, starting with what we put our coffee in.
We're proud to lead the change by introducing the world’s first infinitely recyclable aluminum pod for Keurig® brewers. It's more than innovation—it's a movement toward a cleaner, more conscious coffee culture. With every sip of our coffee, you’re joining the revolution for sustainable single-serve pods.
Breaking Up With Plastic
The convenience of single-serve brewing has always come with a hidden cost: plastic. Traditional pods made from plastic often end up in landfills or worse, in oceans. Even if you toss them into a recycling bin, most of those materials never get repurposed.
That’s where we saw a problem—and an opportunity.
We knew we could do better. By switching to aluminum, we designed a pod that delivers fresh, bold flavor while making a big impact on sustainability. Aluminum isn’t just recyclable—it’s infinitely recyclable. Nearly 75% of all aluminum ever produced is still in use today, a testament to its long-term viability as a sustainable coffee solution.
Our aluminum coffee pods are not just a step forward—they’re a leap ahead. They’re easier to recycle, better at preserving flavor, and they align with our core values of reducing waste and respecting the planet.
Recyclable K-Cups® That Actually Work
We know that many K-Cup® pods claim to be recyclable, but there's often fine print involved. Peel off the lid, rinse out the grounds, separate the filter—it’s not exactly a smooth process.
Cambio’s recyclable K-Cups® are different. Thanks to our easy-peel lid and clean design, it’s simple for you to enjoy great coffee without the eco-guilt. After brewing, just cool, peel, and toss the aluminum pod in your recycling bin. No rinsing. No fuss. And most importantly, no landfill.
By focusing on aluminum’s benefits over plastic, we make it effortless for coffee drinkers to act responsibly without sacrificing taste or convenience.
A Better Brew, Start to Finish
Sustainability starts before the pod is even made. It begins with how and where we source our coffee. Our beans are 100% organic and grown on small farms around the coffee belt—from the highlands of Colombia to the volcanic soils of Sumatra.
These farms use sustainable agricultural practices, avoiding synthetic fertilizers and harmful pesticides. That means healthier soil, safer water systems, and thriving ecosystems. But it also results in richer, cleaner beans that create a more vibrant cup of coffee.
Once harvested, our beans are small-batch roasted to perfection. This allows us to preserve their origin characteristics and produce a coffee flavor that’s smooth, well-balanced, and true to the bean’s natural profile. We don’t take shortcuts—because doing better for the planet means taking our time to do things right.
Designed for Today’s Conscious Consumer
Coffee lovers are becoming more mindful. They're asking questions about sourcing, packaging, and impact. At Cambio, we’re here with the answers.
Our sustainable single-serve pods are crafted for those who value quality and care about the planet. When you brew a cup with our aluminum K-Cup® pods, you’re not just drinking coffee—you’re supporting a company that puts purpose before profit.
In fact, 20% of every dollar we earn goes directly back to the coffee-growing communities who bring this incredible coffee to life. We partner with organizations like Food 4 Farmers to help families achieve food security and long-term resilience. It’s our way of ensuring the cycle of sustainability continues beyond the cup.
Why Aluminum Pods Make the Difference
The material we use to package our coffee plays a critical role in its sustainability. Here’s why aluminum pods are a game-changer:
-
They preserve freshness longer by creating a more effective barrier against oxygen and moisture.
-
They reduce environmental impact by keeping pods out of landfills and oceans.
-
They simplify recycling, making it more accessible to more people.
-
They save energy. Recycled aluminum uses 95% less energy than producing new aluminum.
In contrast, plastic pods are difficult to recycle, often contain mixed materials, and contribute to a massive waste problem. Aluminum is the clear choice for eco-friendly coffee pods—and we’re proud to be leading that charge.
Change is in the Cup
We like to say Cambio means “change”—and that’s more than just a name. It’s a mindset. We created this company because we were tired of business as usual. We wanted to build something that reflected our values and inspired others to do the same.
Our goal is simple: deliver an exceptional cup of coffee that does right by the world. And thanks to our pioneering approach to sustainable single-serve pods, that goal is now within reach. If you are looking for a good dark roast coffee, try out Sumatran dark roast aluminum coffee pods.
Whether you’re a long-time espresso enthusiast, a flavored coffee fanatic, or someone who simply wants to make a better cup each morning, Cambio offers a way to enjoy coffee without compromise.
