Nespresso, the pioneer of the portioned coffee known for high-quality espresso, has just launched the new Vertuo coffee brewing system in South Africa.
Nespresso Vertuo offers over 30 unique coffee blends and single origins in a range of five cup sizes for coffee lovers to enjoy their favourite drink any way they like, whatever the moment. Whether they prefer a long cup in the morning or an indulgent Cappuccino for a coffee break, a Gran Lungo after lunch or an Espresso in the afternoon, Vertuo can make it all from just the touch of a button.
Following the success of Vertuo in numerous countries across North America, Europe and Asia, the Vertuo Next range is now available in South Africa, where many consumers prefer a large coffee, often starting their day with one that is more than 200ml. With Vertuo, South Africa will be able to enjoy longer cups of coffees made at home, with the quality Nespresso is known for.
Francisco Nogueira, Business Executive Officer for Nespresso Middle East & Africa explained, “By introducing Vertuo in South Africa, we are expanding at home coffee options for South African coffee lovers and delivering a range of large coffees without compromising the taste or extraordinary quality expected from each cup of Nespresso. Coffee lovers will be able to discover new sizes, whether that is a 230ml Signature coffee mug of their favourite coffee or the Carafe (535ml) for an even bigger Nespresso taste sharing experience.”
The Vertuo system introduces Centrifusion™ technology and a new range of coffee capsule sizes that together allow for different coffee styles. At the touch of a button, the intelligent system reads and recognises the unique barcode on each capsule, adjusting the flow and volume of water, temperature, infusion time and capsule rotation to extract a high quality dark, full-bodied coffee, finished with a silky and generous crema.
Nespresso South Africa currently has three models in the Vertuo Next range, with Nespresso Vertuo Next, Vertuo Next Premium and, Vertuo Next Deluxe in sleek and modern colours. All of the machines have the simple one- touch button and feature the Centrifusion™ technology.

Nespresso’s Commitment to Sustainability
Sustainability is at the heart of everything Nespresso does, and drives a commitment to making a positive difference for people and the planet. In line with this approach, all Nespresso coffee capsules, including the Vertuo range, are made from aluminium, an infinitely recyclable material, which best protects the freshness, quality and taste of the coffees. Nespresso has invested in its recycling programs and is committed to making it as simple and convenient as possible for consumers to recycle their used capsules. As well as this, all Nespresso systems are equipped with an energy-saving mode, or an automatic power- off function to minimise energy use.
Vertuo Next machines are made from over 50% recycled plastics and come with a fully recyclable pack made from 99.5% recycled material: recycled paper, moulded paper and paper foil to protect the machine from scratches. This innovative packaging will be rolled out to all Nespresso machines by the end of 2021.
