We’ve successfully transitioned our standard cup range to feature Aqueous lining instead of PLA. These cups are now certified as home compostable according to Australian AS5810 standards. As we phase out our existing inventory, you might still receive cups in a PLA bioplastic-lined carton. Rest assured, both the carton and the cups are clearly labeled with home compost certifications for easy identification.

Aqueous cups are the future! Certified to AS5810 standards, our Aqueous cups, paired with our sugarcane lids, offer a fully home compostable solution. These cups are made with a unique waterproof barrier coating, reducing material use while maintaining the same leak and grease-proof benefits.

Currently, no cups in Australia are accepted in the paper recycling stream. Claims regarding recyclability in Australia and New Zealand can be verified using the PREP tool. Our cups are also certified industrially compostable to European Standards (EN13432) and Australian Standards (AS4736).

BioCup double wall takeaway coffee cups feature an extra layer of paperboard and a textured pattern for added insulation, making them a more economical and eco-friendly option than double-cupping extra-hot drinks like teas and long blacks. Made from heavy-duty, premium quality board, our cups offer superior stability, better lid fit, and insulation. They are printed with non-toxic, environmentally-friendly water or soy-based inks and have a 12-month shelf life.
