Customer printed paper cups remain the most popular replacement for reusable coffee mugs. They are a safer and more hygienic option. According to studies, reusable mugs can harbour bacteria even after a thorough cleaning. Meanwhile, eco-friendly paper cups can recycle, decay, or degrade under proper waste management.
Optimizing production processes is an important task for us. We need to find more efficient and environmentally friendly production methods to reduce energy consumption and waste generation. For example, we have now started using water-based inks for printing, which are not only non-toxic but can also be easily decomposed.
Paper cups’ biodegradability is one of their main benefits. Paper cups degrade quickly in composting facilities, unlike other cups, which can take hundreds of years to break down. Paper cups are also frequently constructed from recycled materials, which lessens their environmental impact.
