Full details

These cups provide the convenience of disposable drinkware while utilizing a plant-based lining to ensure structural integrity, though the single-wall construction means they may feel hot to the touch when filled with near-boiling liquids.

FAQs

Are these cups recyclable?

These cups are designed to be composted in industrial facilities. They are generally not suitable for standard paper recycling streams due to the plant-based lining.

What does BS EN 13432 certification mean?

This is a European standard that specifies requirements for packaging recoverable through composting and biodegradation.

Can I use these for cold drinks?

Yes, they are suitable for both hot and cold beverages, though they are specifically engineered for hot drink performance.

Do I need special lids?

You should use lids that match the specific rim diameter of the 8oz cup to ensure a secure, leak-proof fit.

Is the lining made of plastic?

No, the lining is plant-based and compostable, which is what allows the cup to meet the BS EN 13432 certification.

How many cups come in this pack?

This specific pack contains 50 cups.

Troubleshooting

Cup feels too hot to hold

Use a cardboard coffee sleeve to provide an additional layer of thermal insulation.

Moisture buildup on exterior

Single-wall cups can exhibit condensation when exposed to sudden temperature changes; ensure your storage area is kept dry.

Disposal confusion

Display clear signage near your bins indicating that the cups are compostable, which helps prevent contamination of recycling streams.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
