Double Wall Coffee Cups That Are Better for the Planet
Choose BioCup double wall coffee cups if hot tea and black coffees make up a significant portion of your hot beverage sales. These double wall paper cups are designed with an extra layer of premium paperboard and a textured pattern for additional insulation to protect consumers. They are a more economical and environmentally friendly solution to double-cupping those hot drinks!
How To Decide on Double or Single Wall Cups
If you're striving for more sustainable business practices, it's important to consider that the extra layer in these double wall insulated paper coffee cups increases the environmental impact of the paper cup both in production and transportation. Not sure which paper coffee cup option is right for your business? Read our blog on the difference between single wall and double wall hot cups to help you decide.
What Are Double Wall BioCups Made Of?
Our Aqueous double wall BioCups are certified home compostable to AS5810 standards and made with a water-based dispersion coating. The coating is printed like a water-based ink, allowing it to be absorbed into the paper fibers, rather than sitting on top as an additional layer. This reduces the amount of material needed – while still providing the same leak and grease-proof benefits as other coatings. With our home compostable coffee cup lids, you can put your cup and lid right in your home compost bin to break down and have a completely home compostable solution!
We also offer double wall takeaway coffee cups are made from premium paper and are lined with plant-based bioplastic. These compostable double wall cups are printed with non-toxic, environmentally-friendly water or soy-based inks. We use a heavy-duty, premium-quality board to give our insulated coffee cups superior stability, insulation and lid fit. Our bioplastic and bioplastic-lined premium paper cups are certified industrially compostable to Australian Standards AS4736.
How To Dispose Of Double Wall BioCups
Our cups are designed to be industrially composted as part of the circular economy and are accepted in an increasing number of councils' FOGO (Food Organics Garden Organics) or green bins. Read more about our composting initiative to find out how you can compost our cups. Have you ever wondered if recycling cups is better than composting? Read our blog to bust some BioCup myths.
In addition to making better food service packaging for the planet, BioPak donates 5% of profits from all sales of cups, along with all of our products, to positive change. You can read more about our give back fund on our website.
