BioPak 30mL Clear Bioplastic Sampling Cup

BioPak Bioplastic clear sampling cups (tasting cups) are made from Ingeo PLA. Ingeo is made from plants and has a CO2 footprint 75% smaller than conventional plastics, even if it ends up in landfill. Show your customers that you care for the environment by presenting their samples to them in Bioplastic tasting cups. Please note that this item does not include lids.

Eco friendly clear cups are an excellent substitute for standard foam or plastic cups and have the added advantage of showing your customers that you care about your carbon footprint. Many council areas today will only allow eco friendly packaging in food service areas. We have a full range of compostable packaging, perfect for satisfying even the most discerning local council.

Clear BioCup Background
BioPak plant-based tasting cups have the same look and feel as traditional clear plastic cups. However BioPak PLA sampling cups are made from Ingeo, a renewable plant-based plastic that is 100% derived from corn, not oil. PLA bioplastic requires 68% fewer fossil fuel resources to produce than traditional plastic.

BioCups can be composted in a commercial compost facilty, however this option is not widely available in Australia. If the Bio tasting cups end up in landfill, it still has upstream environmental benefits, such as reduced greenhouse gas emissions and reduced dependence on fossil fuels. To gain maximum advantage though, the compost bin is the recommended destination, completeing the cycle by enriching the earth that helped produce it.

Clear Bio Sampling Cups:

• Are made from plants, not oil
• Are compostable in a commercial compost facility in as little as 45 days

What is Bioplastic?
Bioplastics are plastics derived from renewable sources, such as plant starch. Some, but not all, bioplastics are designed to biodegrade. The production and use of bioplastics is generally regarded as a more sustainable activity when compared with plastic production from petroleum, because it relies less on fossil fuel as a carbon source and also introduces fewer, net-new greenhouse emissions if it biodegrades. They significantly reduce hazardous waste caused by oil-derived plastics, which remain solid for hundreds of years.
