Special collection systems will help, in particular

The RECUP GREEN company, which develops smart collection systems for the HoReCa Coffee To Go segment, talked about the sorting of disposable cups for coffee and tea.

They shared useful information on their own Facebook page.

Specialists from RECUP GREEN gave 5 reasons why using special sorting stations for paper cups is the right solution:

  1. Efficient recycling.

Dispensers separate waste into different components – plastic, paper, liquids. This makes them suitable for processing, and also reduces costs and simplifies the disposal process.

  1. Less pollution.

Sorting stations prevent mixing of materials and pollution, which allows for more efficient use of secondary raw materials.

  1. Cleanliness and tidiness.

Sorting stations maintain order and cleanliness in the coffee shop. No more overflowing shared containers!

  1. Image improvement.

"A responsible approach to sorting shows your concern for the environment. Customers love brands that care about the planet," says RECUP GREEN.

  1. Savings on disposal.

Separate collection of cups allows you to reduce the costs of removing mixed waste and direct it to recycling.

The other day, EcoPolitic told that the community in Transcarpathia was funded by the EU improves sorting of household waste. We also provided interesting facts that you might not know about processing of PET bottles .
