7oz Aqueous-Lined Paper Water Cup - Mainstream Recyclable and Compostable Solution
Water cooler operations, workplace hydration services, and environmentally progressive businesses require paper cup solutions that deliver genuine mainstream recyclability without specialist facility requirements. This 7oz aqueous-lined paper water cup represents material innovation enabling conventional paper recycling whilst maintaining dual compostability certification for comprehensive end-of-life disposal options.
Advanced Material Specifications
- Revolutionary Lining Technology:
- Zero-plastic aqueous coating optimised for conventional paper recycling equipment eliminating specialist facility requirements whilst achieving leak-resistant performance
- Capacity:
- 7oz (approximately 200ml) squat single wall design with 72mm rim diameter for water cooler dispenser compatibility
- Dual Certification:
- 100% recyclable certified by WMU for mainstream paper and card recycling plus EN 13432 industrial composting certification with OK COMPOST accreditation from TÜV Austria
- Regulatory Compliance:
- EU food contact regulations (EC 10/2011) with OM6 condition approval withstanding 100°C for 4 hours, manufactured to ISO and BRC standards
- Presentation:
- White paper construction with minimal sustainable recycling message printed on cup side
- Case Configuration:
- 500-unit cases with 10 sleeves of 50 cups facilitating efficient stock management and dispenser refilling
Environmental Leadership Advantages
- Genuine Mainstream Recyclability - Aqueous lining technology enables processing through conventional paper recycling equipment without specialist facilities unlike PE-lined cups requiring dedicated closed-loop collection schemes
- Circular Economy Support - Compatible with standard kerbside paper and card collections enabling valuable paper fibre recycling through multiple lifecycles supporting genuine circular economy principles
- Dual Disposal Pathways - EN 13432 industrial composting certification provides comprehensive end-of-life flexibility where composting facilities exist alongside mainstream recycling capability
- Material Innovation - Revolutionary aqueous coating delivers identical look and feel to conventional plastic-lined cups whilst eliminating plastic content and specialist recycling barriers
- Consumer Clarity - Eliminates confusion created by PE-lined cups marketed as "recyclable" but requiring specialist processing facilities with limited accessibility
- Water Cooler Compatibility - 72mm rim diameter ensures universal fitting with standard water cooler cup dispensers for straightforward operational integration
- Performance Reliability - Aqueous lining withstands 100°C for 4 hours meeting demanding thermal requirements whilst maintaining leak-resistant properties
Material Technology Explanation
Understanding the Innovation: Traditional PE-lined paper cups technically recyclable but require specialist dedicated facilities and closed-loop collection schemes creating significant practical barriers resulting in widespread landfill disposal. This aqueous-lined technology revolutionises paper cup sustainability by enabling processing through conventional paper mill equipment without machinery investment requirements. Paper mills can recycle these cups alongside standard paper and card waste streams, making genuine mainstream recyclability achievable rather than theoretical. This represents material advancement eliminating the infrastructure gap that has prevented effective paper cup recycling.
Target Applications
Progressive Water Service: Workplace water cooler operations, office facilities, conference venues, and environmentally responsible businesses requiring paper water cups with genuine mainstream recyclability eliminating specialist facility requirements whilst maintaining professional performance standards.
Sustainability Achievement: Zero-plastic aqueous technology delivers authentic mainstream recyclability through conventional paper recycling infrastructure whilst EN 13432 industrial composting certification provides dual disposal pathway flexibility. WMU certification confirms compatibility with standard kerbside paper and card collections, enabling practical circular economy participation versus PE-lined alternatives requiring inaccessible specialist processing facilities.
Please Note:
> Recycle with mainstream paper and card - compatible with standard kerbside and commercial paper recycling collections.
> Commercially compostable to EN 13432 standard where industrial composting facilities exist - not suitable for landfill composting due to oxygen requirements.
> Shelf life 12 months from supply date for optimal performance.
> Custom printing available - contact CupsDirect for details.
