Frequently Asked Questions about Our Cups
Are these coffee cups recyclable?
It depends! Check out our range of recyclable coffee cups with lids, which are clearly labeled so customers know what to do with them after use. Our range of biodegradable coffee cups with lids are not recyclable as they are lined with PLA (polylactic acid) – a plant-based material with similar properties to PE (polyethylene) – and are designed to degrade naturally over time. This makes these cups ideal for home or commercial composting. They can also be disposed of as general waste; they just take longer to decompose.
Are coffee cup lids biodegradable?
Yes, the coffee cup lids in our online store are made from fully compostable biodegradable materials such as bagasse and PLA (polylactic acid). They are clearly labeled so customers know what to do with them after use. Pair them with our 100% biodegradable and compostable coffee cups for a completely green takeaway coffee experience.
Is biodegradable and recyclable packaging as good as the alternatives?
Yes! Our packaging selection has been carefully curated to feature only the best sustainable hot and cold beverage packaging.
