A plastic cup is not just a plastic cup

Disposable and Reusable Plastic Cups

Plastic cups are among the most used products in the gastronomy industry. We offer a selection of different disposable and reusable cups. The decision depends on the application and the individual properties of the cup.

Durability:

Disposable cups are made from thinner plastic than reusable cups and are therefore less durable. They are cheaper to purchase than reusable cups, but at the cost of their durability. Reusable cups are dishwasher safe and designed to be used multiple times.

Uses:

Disposable plastic cups are ideal for events and parties where things need to move quickly and returns and cleaning are difficult to implement. If you want to reduce waste, opt for the reusable cups.

Environmentally Friendly:

Disposable plastic cups can quickly become an environmental burden due to their short usage duration. By using reusable cups, you benefit from a longer usage duration and choose an environmentally friendly alternative. So if you want to keep the environmental impact as low as possible, opt for the reusable plastic cup.

Hygiene:

Disposable plastic cups are disposed of after a single use, thus guaranteeing the highest hygiene standard with minimal effort. These properties are very relevant in dental practices, nursing homes, and hospitals, for example. With reusable plastic cups, the effort is somewhat higher to keep the cups hygienically clean. You can clean the cups with detergent like regular dishes, or have them washed in the dishwasher. In conclusion, both plastic cups are equally hygienic.

Conclusion on the choice between disposable or reusable cups

The choice of the right plastic cup depends on the requirements you have for it. Whether for an event with many guests or in your gastronomy for to-go options, we have the right plastic cups for you. Disposable cups score points for their convenience and cost-effective acquisition, while reusable cups emphasize sustainability.

The future of packaging: Reusable solutions

Although disposable tableware is a staple in many areas, the trend is increasingly moving towards reusable plastic cups. Especially at events, more and more companies are working with reusable plastic cups using a deposit system, which allows for return and thus reuse. Such products help reduce single-use consumption and thus reduce environmental impact. A conscious approach to plastic cups and the addition of reusable products offers you the chance to combine practicality and sustainability.
