Coffee cup recycling
We can supply your business with a coffee cup recycling collection service.
Business coffee cup recycling
Did you know that every year in the UK we use almost 3 billion paper cups? This is enough to stretch around the world 5.5 times. However, there can be a way to bring a positive impact from the single-use cups disposed of each week…
How it works
- We supply your business with a clean container for the used cups.
- You fill your container with used single use coffee cups only.
- Once filled, we will collect your container and replace it with a clean one.
- Your coffee cups will then be baled at our Transfer Station in Avonmouth. This ensures that any additional waste is removed.
The recycling process
- Following this, the baled material is then sent to James Cropper Paper for the recycling process.
- On recycling, the plastic is stripped from the fibre and reprocessed. After which, the fibre is reused during the papermaking and Colourform process.
- The result? The creation of new products! These include stationery, packaging and more coffee cups. All products are fully recyclable and, in some cases, reusable.
