Why Circular Cup (Aqueous Coating Paper Cups) can be recycled in paper and paperboard system?
Circular Cup are made of paperboard that has been coated with water-based polymers, and they are plastic-free, not included PP, PE, PS, PVC, PET, PLA, PBS. In contrast, the PE Paper Cup is the mixture of paper and plastic in its inner lining, and it needs a specialist recycle facilities to process these disposable cups and break down the plastic from the paper. This is why you can recycle our circular cup as paper and paperboard system. Once it is into recycling system, its repulpability rate for our Circular Cup is highly at 90% and to be reused well.

Is PLA actually eco-friendly?
PLA is biodegradable and can be broke down within 180 days in a commercial compost facility under certain conditions, 50%-60% humidity and above 58 degree Celsius environment.
What is the difference between cold paper cups, hot paper cups, and cold/hot paper cup?
We offer different kinds of paper cups, including cold paper cups, hot paper cups, and cold/hot paper cups. All of them need to have a coating on the inner side.
Cold paper cups contain cold drinks added with ice cubes, and it would have condensation water occurred and then softening the paper cups; In order to avoid this, the cold paper cups are coated with double-sided (inner & outer) laminated film.
Hot paper cups need only one-sided (inner) laminated film and to adopt thick paperboard to have better heat insulation effect.
Cold/hot paper cups takes the advantages of cold paper cups and hot paper cups, and they are to use thick paperboard and double-sided (inner & outer) laminated film. It is good to contain cold drinks or hot drinks.
