Ban on free coffee to go cups
Starting July 1, 2023, new rules apply to plastic-coated coffee-to-go paper cups. This means a fee will be charged for each cup taken on the go or picked up. Free giveaways will no longer be permitted starting July 1, 2023. Businesses are free to decide how much they charge for plastic-coated cups. Plastic-free paper cups are permitted.
It is also mandatory to offer reusable alternatives alongside disposables when drinking on-site. This means that when consuming on-site, there will be a ban on cardboard cups with a plastic coating and disposable plastic cups.
The Ministry of Infrastructure and Water Management has announced that there will also be restrictions on cardboard cups from July 2023.
In short, the following applies to cups on the road:
1- offer a cup without plastic
2- customer brings his own cup
3- Charging for the coffee to go cup with a plastic coating
4- you offer an alternative reusable cup.
We also have a wide range of reusable cups that we offer in addition to the cardboard cups.
The reusable coffee cups and mugs made of PP (polypropylene)
The reusable PP cups can be supplied fully printed or unprinted.
