Keurig Canada Settles Recyclability Claims For $2.3 Million

Keurig Dr Pepper Canada has reached a US$2.3 million ($3 million Canadian) settlement with Canada’s Competition Bureau after an investigation into false or misleading claims regarding the recyclability of single-use K-Cups.

According to court documents, Keurig Dr Pepper has also reached a settlement in a class action lawsuit regarding K-Cup recyclability claims in the United States, although the terms of that agreement have not yet been made public.

In an announcement of the Canadian settlement, the consumer-protective Canadian Competition Bureau said its investigation found claims made on Keurig’s social media, website, packaging and logos to be false or misleading in municipalities where K-Cups are not accepted for recycling.
