BioCups are sustainable disposable cups designed as alternatives to traditional plastic-lined cups made from PLA bioplastic (derived from corn and beet starch). PLA emits up to 80% less carbon and uses 52% less non-renewable energy than conventional plastic.
Disposal Options
BioCups Clear Plastic - General Waste Bin
Why
BioCups can't be recycled because they are lined with PLA (polylactic acid) bioplastic which contaminates paper recycling streams and requires industrial composting to break down.
Did You Know
In a certified industrial composting facility, BioCups can completely biodegrade into nutrient-rich compost in 6-12 weeks, without leaving any microplastics behind.
