The Leaf BioCup, originally launched by BioPak in 2006, marked the company's first foray into sustainable cup design. Nearly two decades later, BioPak has transformed this pioneering product into a dynamic Nature Series in collaboration with Rainforest Rescue. The new series features changing designs that document the wonders of the trees planted to rehabilitate biodiverse areas, starting with three leaf designs: Ylang Ylang, Bleeding Heart, and Flame Tree. This ongoing cup project highlights the wonders of these trees, showcasing the beauty of nature and emphasising the positive impact of reforestation efforts on restoring ecological balance.
We Donate 1% to Protect Rainforests
Over the last decade, our dedication to Australia's environment conversation has grown through our partnership with Rainforest Rescue. Together, we have planted and protected 90,947 trees and reclaimed five hectares of the endangered Daintree Rainforest. In our new educational series, Rainforest Rescue will share their knowledge and special insights about the trees planted, helping us understand how important these trees are for bringing back and preserving diverse areas.
