Packaging manufacturer Huhtamaki has extended its award-winning range of BioWare bio-coated paper cups with the launch of a new, larger size. The new 14oz bio-coated paper hot cup, means customers can upsize their choice of beverage, while still being able to choose a sustainable option.
Manufactured in the UK – together with 9oz, 12oz and 16oz BioWare hot cup sizes – the bio-coated cup is designed to have minimal impact on the environment, and was developed in response to the increasing market demand for compostable products. Other sizes in the range include 4oz and 20oz variants. All can be fitted with a lid to help prevent those inevitable spillages, perfect for customers wanting to drink on-the-go.
Manufactured using materials from sustainably managed forests (which can be tracked back to their origins), the cup’s carton board material carries the Forestry Stewardship Council’s (FSC) chain of custody certificate, and thanks to its innovative bio-coating can be composted in industrial composting facilities.
Available in the attractive BioWare stock design, the cups can also be custom printed.
The used bio-coated paper cups are now part of a collection scheme run by Save a Cup, whereby they are sent to industrial composting facilities across the UK and turned into compost for use in farming and horticulture. After two to three months the end result is quality compost, which will be used in farming and horticulture to put nutrients back into the soil.
