CELEBRATION Packaging has announced that its EnviroWare bamboo fibre double wall hot drink cups and double wall Leaf 2 hot drink cups are now also certified as 100% recyclable in normal paper mills.
MD Nick Burton said that when the firm created the EnviroWare brand over 17 years ago, the declared mission was to seek out more sustainable packaging solutions.
“We have always believed that when sourcing sustainable packaging, the provenance of the raw materials is paramount – but ensuring that it can be properly disposed of at its end-of-life is equally important,” he added. “Obtaining certification to prove that our products are 100% recyclable is therefore crucial.”
Using the recyclability assessment method of EN13430 with testing based on the Confederation of European Paper Industries Recyclability Test Method Version 2 (2022) for fibre-based packaging products and materials, the cups have been confirmed as 100% recyclable in standard paper mills.
The bamboo fibre double-wall hot drink cups are made from FSC-certified bamboo fibre with an aqueous-based lining, while the Leaf 2 paper hot drink cups are made from FSC-certified material with a plant-based lining.
