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

  1. We supply your business with a clean container for the used cups.
  2. You fill your container with used single use coffee cups only.
  3. Once filled, we will collect your container and replace it with a clean one.
  4. Your coffee cups will then be baled at our Transfer Station in Avonmouth. This ensures that any additional waste is removed.

The recycling process

  1. Following this, the baled material is then sent to James Cropper Paper for the recycling process.
  2. On recycling, the plastic is stripped from the fibre and reprocessed. After which, the fibre is reused during the papermaking and Colourform process.
  3. 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.
