Eco Mugs
With companies increasing their environmental focus, our eco mugs are the perfect branded solution for more eco-conscious promotional campaigns. We offer a wide range of eco-mugs, made with a variety of alternative materials. Our most popular material is bamboo, the world’s most sustainable crop. We also offer an additional range of materials, from corn and wheat-based mugs, to plant based travel cups and even coffee-husk derived mugs, helping to provide you with as many eco-friendly options as possible.
So, which material is best?
Bamboo -
Bamboo as a material is a very sustainable crop, due to the fact that it is a fast growing grass, requires no fertiliser, and self-generates from it's own roots. Bamboo hosts a variety of anti-bacterial and anti-fungal properties, as well as being naturally sterile, meaning that the cup won't tain the flavour of your drinks. Bamboo is also an extremely strong material, offering a sturdy, lightweight, and reusable alternative to traditional takeaway cups. Bamboo cups are often dishwasher safe, but not suitable for microwave use.
Coffee Husk -
Coffee husk is an organic waste material which is formed during the milling stage of coffee production. Our coffee husk cups are made by recycling tonnes of this waste material to create the perfect travel cup for coffee which retains heat, is reusable. However, these mugs are also unsuitable for microwave use.
Plant Based -
Our Eco-Plant Cups are made using plant based materials that are 100% biodegradable and perfect for use as a plastic equivalent. Our Eco-Plant mugs are also BPA-free, and free of any harmful paraffins. The plant based materials can be microwaved with a heat resistance up to 120°C, and the mugs are also dishwasher-proof, for quick and easy cleaning.
Wheat -
Wheat straw is a biodegradable material that is left over after the wheat grains are harvested. Whilst this is traditionally treated as waste, these cups reclaim the material to create a dishwasher-friendly mug that is free from any harmful toxins. Another benefit of a wheat straw mug is that it has a heat resistance of up to 90°C, making it both freezer and microwave safe.
Corn -
Our corn based mugs are made with 100% corn as the ultimate plastic free travel mug. The corn based material (PLA - polylactic acid) is made from toxin-free fermented plant starch which is completely carbon neutral, and can be commercially composted. PLA is a versatile, compostable, and uses a renewable resource, for the perfect plastic alternative.
