CPRC Weekly Update: Big Wins, How-Tos, and Real-World Recycling in Action

It’s been a packed week at The Coffee Pod Recycling Co.—the kind we love, where progress shows up both on the workbench and in the workplace. Here’s your quick tour of what we built, shared, and learned.

🚀 Milestone order, incoming

We kicked the week off with our biggest order to date. It’s a huge vote of confidence in our mission and a signal that organizations are ready to turn single-serve waste into real recycling wins. We’re ramping production to deliver on time and at quality.

🏢 Recycling-at-work demo: what “good” looks like

Plenty of folks ask what a great office rollout looks like. This week we shared a quick walkthrough showing the process end-to-end—foil off, grounds out, pod clean and dry—so the right material hits the right bin. Simple, fast, and (dare we say) pretty satisfying.

🧰 By popular demand: a first-time user How-To

Your DMs asked for a concise tutorial, so we made one. It covers the exact steps to prep pods correctly and turn the recycler from “cool idea” into an everyday habit.

🎥 Founder’s Corner: why every small business should do this

Our Managing Partner Henry jumped on camera to talk about why coffee pod recycling belongs in every small business: it’s visible, measurable, and morale-boosting—the kind of sustainability win teams actually notice. Expect more candid clips answering common questions as we scale.

🗞️ Why the “last 10 seconds” matters

Big picture: going from “recyclable” to actually recycled happens at the point of use. That final 10-second prep step—separating foil, grounds, and clean plastic—unlocks real recyclability and keeps contamination out of the stream. Our whole design philosophy is about making that step effortless.

What’s next

• Scaling fulfillment: Tightening production and QA to keep lead times short without compromising durability.

• Workplace playbooks: More short videos and checklists you can drop straight into Slack/Teams for easy rollouts.

• Nespresso® progress: Continuing toward broader capsule compatibility—stay tuned for beta details.

How you can help this week

1. Share the how-to with your team or facilities lead and set up a bin next to your brewer.

2. Show a 60-second demo at your next standup—fastest way to turn intent into habit.

3. Tell a friend at another office or school. Real change spreads person-to-person.
