Compostable Cup

 

Let us explain to you exactly what a Compostable Cup is..


How is it made?

We use Ingeo brand PLA, to make our compostable cups, Ingeo is made from starchy plants just like corn. The starch from the corn kernels is processed into a biopolymer, this in turn is then turned into paper! (among other things too!) The biopolymer looks, acts and performs just like petroleum-based plastics.


This is why we use it!

The Ingeo acts much like traditional plastic (don’t panic it’s not actually plastic) but with the crucial benefit of being 100% compostable in commercial facilities. We like Ingeo because it’s versatile, compostable and best of all not petroleum derived. Most hot cups contain plastic linings, but we don’t, we use Ingeo in place of the traditional plastic so they are entirely made from renewable materials. This mean that our compostable cup can be put into your compost bin which when taken away will breakdown into nutrient rich soil within 6 weeks (commercially composted).By choosing a compostable cup your helping the environment, reducing waste and making a change for the better!
