Paper Cup Recycling
Our business is concerned with the amount of waste produced by single use coffee cups. As our research has shown it is a surprise to many to find that only 1 in around 400 coffee cups are actually currently being recycled (The Telegraph, 2017). This is due to the fact that although the ‘paper’ cup may seem to be something that is easily recycled and often bares a familiar recycling symbol, it actually has a PVA layer that is difficult to remove from the paper, but must be removed in order to be recycle effectively. We plan to install bins in places that may use a lot of coffee cups. We will then offer a collection service. Our paper cup recycling service is designed to simplify your recycling needs .

Plastic straw recycling
12 Million Tonnes of plastic are dumped in the ocean every year.
Plastic Straws are amongst the top ten items to be picked up on beach clean ups. More often than not straws are made from two different types of polymer, either HDPE (high density polyethylene) or PP (Polypropylene) both of which are easily recognisable and widely recycled, without detrimental effect on their properties (Khademi, 2015).
However, due to their size and weight they fall through the Machinery resulting in them going to general waste, in fact companies such as Roydon, and many others have admitted that it is just, “simply not economic or worth their while to recycle them” (Sumner, CEO at Roydon, 2017). There are however options to recycle straws on smaller scales
