Huhtamaki is proud to be a founding member of The Paper Cup Recovery & Recycling Group, which, following successful trials at several mills around the UK, is now able to recycle paper cups - including those manufactured by Huhtamaki!
During the trials, fibres from standard Polyethylene (PE) coated paper cups were extracted and converted into high quality tissue for use in everyday products like toilet tissue. Under the new scheme, the Paper Cup Recovery & Recycling Group will work with Save a Cup, who will collect paper cups from the market place for them to recycle.
Huhtamaki is delighted that all its paper hot, cold and vended cups can now be collected and recycled by Save a Cup, as John Young, General Manager Foodservice, Huhtamaki explains: "As one of the world's leading packaging manufacturers, it is important for Huhtamaki to work with industry working groups so that we can work towards pushing the importance of waste management and play our part in helping establish and develop routes for the collection and disposal of food packaging. It is fantastic news that under this new scheme all Huhtamaki paper cups can now be recycled."
