€91.89
Jiminy
A durable bioplastic cup made in Germany from plants, not petroleum. Food-safe, dishwasher-safe, stackable, unbreakable. Perfect for kids at home, picnics, and parties.
What it contains: A durable bioplastic cup 7.3cm tall, 7cm in diameter, 200ml volume
Feel great about where it comes from:
Raw materials from EU? No - sugarcane doesn't grow here - Brazil (sugarcane leftovers), Germany (natural mineral: lime)
Organic? No
Manufactured in EU? Yes - Germany
What's it made from? Bioplastic - an innovative, carbon-neutral material made from the leftovers after sugarcane is harvested. It's carbon-neutral because plants absorb carbon as they grow - whereas petroleum-based plastic has a carbon footprint of up to 6 times its own weight in CO2. Bioplastic is fully recyclable at end of life along with petro-plastics. Think of it as FairTrade coffee - looks the same, tastes the same, but has a very different impact on the world because of how it's produced.
What's it packaged in? Nothing
Shipping packaging from manufacturer to us: Cardboard only
Plastic-free? Yes 100%
Vegan? Yes
Animal-cruelty-free? Yes
Reused upcycled or recycled? No
Feel great about where it goes after you've used it:
Biodegradable / compostable? No
Reusable / refillable? Yes
Recyclable? Yes - bioplastics can be recycled along with petroplastics at your local civic amenity centre - we checked with the folk behind MyWaste.ie.
