01 — MISSION

Less plastic starts with one cup.

PuraCup replaces an everyday product with a plant-fibre solution: durable in use, compostable after use and designed for a plastic-free economy.

02 — EVIDENCE, NOT PROMISES

Technology examined from multiple perspectives.

PuraCup has undergone a research programme covering material composition, food-contact safety, performance, raw-material origin and end-of-life behaviour. Tests and assessments were performed by specialised independent institutions.

Individual reports are shared with business partners during product verification.

10 — FAQ

Frequently asked questions

What is PuraCup made of?＋

PuraCup cups are made from specially prepared plant fibres. The detailed formulation is protected technological know-how; laboratory reports relate to the samples and product variants examined.

Which sizes are available?＋

The range covers 6, 7, 8, 9, 12 and 16 oz, plus matching 70, 80 and 90 mm lids.

What did the home-compost observation show?＋

In the May 2024 observation, the part in contact with moist compost had fully broken down before day 55. This was a real-life observation, not a standardised laboratory test.

Who examined the product?＋

The verification programme involved specialist institutions including the Łukasiewicz Research Network, J.S. Hamilton, Eurofins, IOŚ-PIB, Beta Analytic and TÜV Austria.

How do I choose a lid?＋

70 mm fits 6–7 oz, 80 mm fits 8–9 oz and 90 mm fits 12–16 oz. Confirm the exact SKU match before a large order.

Are PuraCup cups subject to SUP fees?＋

PuraCup cups contain no synthetic polymers and are not subject to SUP fees. We have test results and assessments supporting product verification and provide partners with documentation appropriate to the product and market.

Can PuraCup cups be personalised?＋

Yes. We offer printing on wraps placed around the cups. Our aim is to keep the cup free of printing and adhesive layers, because inks and adhesives containing synthetic polymers may affect the product’s classification under SUP rules. Wrap design, minimum order, lead time and cost are agreed individually.

How do I place a retail order?＋

Our distributors handle retail orders. Choose a partner listed on this website and contact them for product availability and purchase conditions.

How can I become a PuraCup distributor?＋
