Half-Pint PLA Glass – Plant-Based & Compostable
Serve drinks sustainably with this half-pint glass, crafted from plant-derived PLA (polylactic acid). While PLA does not biodegrade quickly enough in natural environments to fully solve litter issues, its key advantage is its plant-based sustainability. Compared with traditional plastics, PLA is reported to have a 75% smaller CO₂ footprint over its full life cycle, making it a better choice where recycling conventional plastics is limited.
This next-generation compostable cup offers a balance of eco-friendliness, performance, and affordability:
Key Features:
✅ Sustainable Material: Made from plant-derived PLA for a lower environmental impact.
✅ Compostable Branding: ‘Compostable’ embossed on the side for clear identification, without inks.
✅ Cost-Effective: More affordable than early PLA cups and increasingly competitive with high-quality traditional plastics.
✅ High Quality: Strong, clear, flexible, and comparable to PET cups.
✅ Standards Compliant: Meets British/European standard BS EN13432; certificate of conformity available on request.
Ideal for pubs, festivals, events, and venues where sustainability, practicality, and presentation are important.
