Ideal for takeaway sodas and cold-pressed juices, our straw-free lid is designed to fit our cold, clear takeaway cups ranging between 300-700ml. Effectively removing the need for a straw and lowering the waste created from our takeaways, these lids are also made from the Ingeo™ brand of polylactic acid (PLA)—produced from renewable feedstocks such as corn, sugar cane or beets, providing an alternative to petrochemical PET or PP lids.
If you are catering an event or experience high volumes of cups disposed of at your place of business, please get in touch to discuss our closed-loop collection solutions.

End of Life
Industrial Composting
Our clear cups and lids are certified compostable to the ASTM D6400 standards for industrial composting, verified by BPI, which requires the compostable product to:
1) disintegrate after 12 weeks, and
2) completely biodegrade after six months. (This means that 90% or more of the material will have been converted to CO2. The remaining share is converted into water and biomass – i.e. valuable compost.)
