BioCups: Are BioCups recyclable?

While our paper cups are technically recyclable, when packaging is contaminated with beverage residue, it is generally classed as contamination and will end up in a landfill. Moreover, recent bans on plastic exports and a lack of local recycling infrastructure have raised uncertainty about the future of recycling on a global scale. To get the most up-to-date answer, it is best to ask your local council whether they can accept PLA-lined paper cups in their recycling bin.

Our products are designed for a circular economy, using rapidly renewable materials that return nutrients back into the soil at the end of their life. Compost Connect empowers businesses to tackle waste responsibly and turn compostable packaging and organic waste into nutrient-rich compost.
