The Future of Takeaway Coffee Cups is Here
Aqueous is a new cup coating technology that uses a water-based coating to coat coffee cups. These dispersion paper cups are certified home compostable to AS5810 standards, and certified industrially compostable to European (EN13432) and Australian standards (AS4736).
Imagine a world where you stroll down to your favourite cafe, grab a coffee and head home. Once you’re finished with your coffee, you put your cup and lid in your home compost and know with certainty that it will break down with your other organic material, like food waste. Make the switch today!
