The Paper Cup Company is actively involved in supporting organisations finding methods for recycling paper cups

as we feel strongly about the environment.

The Paper Cup Company is a member of the Paper Cup Recovery and Recycling Group. The group is co-ordinated and independently advised by The Fibre Technology Association. The Fibre Technology association is researching new routes into recycling cups.

“The group has progressed a programme of work to investigate the options for recovering and recycling paper cups in line with current government guidelines, such as The Waste Hierarchy . The group aims to encourage the development of a national collection strategy that allows all types of paper drinking cups to be recovered from sites and to overcome the technical issues associated with various types of recycling, especially at paper mills around the UK, where the recovered cups could be recycled into products such as paper, tissue, board and packaging materials”.
