Meet The Founder

I am not a coffee tosser.

Hi, I’m Mandy—coffee lover, nature lover, and the proud inventor of rePodder™.

The idea for rePodder was born the day I realised my daily Nespresso® habit—while wonderfully convenient—was quietly creating a mountain of aluminium waste. I tried their 'collect & return' recycling system. But the smell of mouldy capsules and the swarm of tiny flies quickly made it clear: this wasn’t working for me, or my home. Worse still, I couldn’t shake the worry—were these capsules even making it to a recycling facility?

So I set out to find a better way. A solution that was truly sustainable, simple enough to use at home, and guaranteed that every capsule would actually be recycled. But after months of searching, the answer was clear: it didn’t exist.

So I built it.

After countless hours of designing, testing, and investing in prototypes, rePodder™ was born. A simple, clever tool that lets you empty, crush, and collect your used aluminium coffee pods—ready for kerbside recycling or return through programs like “Cash for Containers”. No more guilt. No more waste. No more greenwashing.

Since the day I received my first working prototype, I haven’t sent a single capsule to landfill. Not one. My coffee grounds nourish my garden. My pods are responsibly recycled. And every cup of coffee I enjoy now comes with peace of mind—and a smaller footprint.

This journey has taught me just how powerful small daily actions can be when they’re made with intention. If you love your coffee and your planet, rePodder is for you.
