With their premium appearance, the new BioWare Love Nature single wall paper hot cups come in four tasteful, muted tones inspired by colors from the natural world. Colors include earth, moss, sand, and pebble; and are available in a mixed sleeve of the four colors, in 4oz, 9oz, 12oz, and 16oz sizes. A 9oz vending cup is also included as part of the range. BioWare Love Nature single wall paper cold cups feature a fresh lime colored logo. Sizes available include 12oz, 16oz, and 22oz.
Manufactured using paperboard material that is 100% PEFC chain of custody certified, all BioWare paper cups are certified in accordance with EN13432, the European norm for compostability of packaging. This means the cups are fully biodegradable and compostable. Both the PEFC and EN13432 "Seedling" logos feature in the cups' design, providing assurance that the products are from sustainable, legal, and traceable sources.
Huhtamaki's BioWare Love Nature cups address one of the biggest sustainability issues—paper drinking cups are one of the most challenging paper products to recycle because of the thin plastic lining that ensures they are able to hold liquid. This means that cups tend to end up in landfill rather than being recycled or composted.
Huhtamaki’s BioWare paper cups incorporate a bio-polymer lining derived from plant starches to ensure that the cups are fully biodegradable and can be composted within 60 days in the optimum condition of industrial composting facilities. These green credentials have been proven through projects that have involved composting the BioWare cups and using the resulting compost in several community schemes.
