Why PLA? Plant-Based, Planet-Safe
Polylactic acid disposable compostable PLA beer cups are crafted from renewable resources like cornstarch and sugarcane. Unlike traditional plastics, these cups break down into water and carbon dioxide under industrial composting conditions (60–70°C), meeting ASTM D6400 and EN 13432 standards.
Key benefits vs. plastic:
- Reduced carbon footprint: Made from plants, not petroleum.
- Beer-ready durability: Resists leaks and maintains shape with carbonated drinks.
- Global compliance: Aligns with EU single-use plastic bans and U.S. BioPreferred programs.
