95 million coffee cups are wasted a day in the UK. That amounts to a lot of coffee cups and coffee grounds! Yet these seemingly harmless throw away cups aren’t widely recycled because of its polyurethane plastic lining. Only 1% of the 7 million disposable coffee cups bought each year are recycled, with the rest going to landfill.
Coffee grounds are also not so innocent and are incredibly potent of methane gas, contributing to the rapidly increasing rate of CO2 levels from the 1,300 tonnes going to waste each day in the UK.
To be recycled, both coffee cups and grounds need to be transported to specialist UK facilities and we know just the place!
