The number of coffee shops that have opened in Thorpe recently is staggering in an area of 4.680 square metres Thorpeis home for approximately 2 coffee shops. Over recent years coffee cups can be found everywhere. With 1 coffee shops in Thorpe, Costa Coffee cups are the biggest challenge to solve. Because these coffee cups can be found everywhere commercial facilities in Thorpe should consider implementing a coffee cup recycling programme.

The number of coffee cups we throw away in Thorpe a day is the biggest challenge but how they are made is another; they are for the majority a paper cup however they are coated in either plastic which stops them from being sent to standard recycling plants as they cannot be recycled like normal paper. On top of that are the other items that are thrown away with each coffee cup; napkins and stirrers mixed in make it a much harder recycling process.

Out of the three facilities in the United Kingdom that can recycle coffee cups we work with one of them, so using our coffee cup recycling services in Thorpe can greatly benefit you and the overall recycling performance in Thorpe as well.

• That they create microplastics when they decompose
• That they are made from wood and considering it takes up to 100,000 trees a year to facilitate the UK takeaway coffee habit this is a problem that needed addressing and continually improving’
