NEXE Innovations Receives Additional Purchase Order from U.S.-Based EKOCUPS

EKOCUPS, an online and high-volume seller on Amazon, continues to replenish stock with NEXE's BPI-certified compostable coffee pods

WINDSOR, ON, Jan. 28, 2025 /PRNewswire/ - NEXE Innovations Inc. ("NEXE" or the "Company") (TSXV: NEXE) (Frankfurt: NX5) (OTC: NEXNF), a compostable and innovative materials company, is pleased to announce another purchase order from EKOCUPS to replenish previously ordered SKUs. EKOCUPS (https://ekocups.com/) is a well-established company based in the U.S. and sells its coffee products online and through Amazon.

In our view this latest purchase order highlights the rising demand for sustainable coffee solutions in the U.S. market. The NEXE BPI-certified compostable pods are a game changer for the coffee industry, as they allow for the convenience of a single-serve option while being eco-friendly.

Developing the compostable coffee pod was challenging, given the performance required during the brewing process and ensuring we could compete with plastic on performance and price. However, addressing these challenges led to a proprietary resin that we believe can be a suitable replacement for various plastic products across different industries.

We developed a pod structure for the compostable coffee pod that is designed to accommodate higher volumes and still provide a high-quality brewing experience. NEXE accomplished this feat through its innovative technology that increases the filter area (U.S. Pat. No. 12,004,678 issued on June 11, 2024), allowing for more volume per pod and increased coffee extraction, improving taste and richness. Internal tests show that the NEXE Pod's total dissolved solids (TDS) are up to 20% greater than other leading coffee pod brands. The Company believes that, given these key competitive features, it is well positioned to offer a compelling "pour-over" coffee experience that appeals to premium coffee brands seeking a sustainable solution.

"EKOCUPS is an important partnership as we establish our foothold in the U.S. market. We expect volumes to continue to grow with EKOCUPS and expect to onboard more SKUs. In our view, our ability to provide a product that is designed to compete on price and performance will help us build a strong market position." said Ash Guglani, President of NEXE.
