FAQs – Truly Eco Coffee Cups

1. Are Truly Eco Coffee Cups home compostable?

Yes. Truly Eco Cups are AS5810 home compostable and made with an aqueous lining designed to break down in backyard compost environments.

2. Are these cups suitable for SA & WA regulations?

Yes. The aqueous-lined design complies with current SA and WA single-use packaging laws.

3. What is the difference between Single Wall and Double Wall?

• Single Wall → lightweight & economical

• Double Wall → extra insulation, no sleeve required

4. Do Truly Eco Cups work with standard coffee lids?

Yes. They fit all 80mm (6,8,10oz) and 90mm (12–16oz) industry-standard CPLA, sugarcane, plastic or other compatible lids.

5. Can Truly Eco Cups be branded or stamped?

Absolutely—White, Kraft, and Black surfaces are ideal for stickers, and stamped custom sleeves. Stamped ink logos unfortunately do not adhere well to the truly-eco cup surface.

6. Are these cups recyclable?

They should be treated as compostable, not recyclable. Paper recycling facilities generally do not accept lined cups of any type.

7. Are Truly Eco Cups considered biodegradable cups?

Yes — they are biodegradable and compostable under both home and industrial compost conditions.

8. Are Truly Eco Coffee Cups suitable for cold drinks?

Yes. They are ideal for iced beverages as well as hot takeaway drinks.

9. What are the most eco-friendly takeaway coffee cups?

The most eco-friendly takeaway coffee cups are certified home compostable coffee cups, such as Truly-Eco single wall and double wall coffee cups. These cups use an aqueous water-based lining instead of a traditional PE plastic coating or PLA bioplastic lining, allowing them to break down naturally in home compost conditions.

While PLA-lined paper coffee cups are often marketed as compostable, they generally require industrial composting facilities, which are limited in Australia. As a result, many PLA-lined cups still end up in landfill. In contrast, home compostable coffee cups with a water-based coating offer a genuinely sustainable solution for cafés and businesses seeking plastic-free takeaway coffee cups that align with real-world waste systems.
