How can we help you?

Podback is a coffee pod recycling service. Created in partnership with the biggest names in coffee pod systems, Nespresso, NESCAFÉ Dolce Gusto and Tassimo, to give people who enjoy the quality and taste of coffee pods simple and easy ways to recycle them. It's the first of its kind in the UK.

Our new high-quality L'OR Espresso aluminium capsules provide consumers with a better-preserved aroma and richer and thicker crema for an intense espresso pleasure**.

A contact number is required for our delivery company in case there are any issues with the delivery of your order.

This is preferably a mobile number so you can receive SMS notifications but can also be a landline number.

This needs to be entered in the "Saved Addresses" section in the "mobile number" field on your account before you proceed to the checkout.

L’OR Espresso capsules are made from aluminium to provide you with the best espresso. Aluminium is known to effectively preserve the aroma and the flavours of the coffee and now enables you to enjoy the intense taste of a L’OR espresso for a unique experience. Through the Podback scheme we are working towards all of the aluminium in our pods being recycled and reused.

Your order will be delivered with Amazon Shipping. 

L'OR has created a new aluminium capsule, specifically designed to be used with Nespresso_®* coffee machines, with the exception of the U_®*, Umilk_®* , Prodigio_®* and Expert_®* models bought after 25 July 2016.

Aluminium pods will be reprocessed at Tandom Metallurgical Group Ltd. in Congleton, near Stoke-on-Trent. Plastic pods will be reprocessed by Roydon in Swinton, near Manchester.

The sorting and reprocessing stages are overseen by ourselves and partners in the UK, meaning we have complete visibility over what happens to our pods. After collection, the coffee pod materials will be separated from the used coffee grounds. The plastic pods are processed to produce high-grade plastic pellets which can be used by manufacturers to produce high-grade plastic items, such as furniture. The coffee grounds go through anaerobic digestion producing a combination of biogas and soil improver. This is an iterative process and we hope as our volumes of collected pods increase, we can make this process even more circular.

To ensure an optimal storage for all our capsules on the online shop, we carefully plan our stock from our warehouse to delivery.Our commitment to our customers is to always guarantee a minimum life of 40 days upon delivery to your home.

Please refer to the information on the external L'OR Capsule packaging for a best before date.

On average, there is no more caffeine in a Lungo than in an Espresso. The amount of caffeine in L'OR Espresso and L'OR Espresso Lungo varies between 50 and 75mg per drink. This figure depends on the quantity of coffee contained in the capsule, the quantity of Robusta used in the blend (Robusta contains higher levels of caffeine than Arabica) and natural fluctuations in the coffee according to the season (however, this has a limited effect)
