Over the past few years, we have been working on a sugarcane paper lid that fulfils all the criteria of a bioplastic lid but would be more widely accepted in highly regulated event environments.
Made from sugarcane pulp, a byproduct of the industry and a fast-growing renewable resource, sugarcane offers a circular alternative to fossil fuel plastics used in takeaway settings.
*Lid sizes are available in 80mm and 90mm options.
For a PLA-free cup solution, pair this lid with our flustix PLASTICFREE Aqueous EcoCup, SKU: EC-12SW-AQ, available in 285mL and 400mL.

End of Life
Our aqueous cups and paper pulp lids are certified for commercial and home composting. When disposed of in industrial compost facilities with specific environmental conditions, the product will disintegrate after 12 weeks and completely biodegrade after six months, meaning that 90 per cent or more of the material will have been converted to carbon dioxide, the remaining materials are biotransformed into other natural substances such as biomass, water, and to be used in agriculture (humus/fertiliser). OK Compost HOME certification requires at least 90 per cent degradation within 12 months at ambient temperature.
