How Paper Cup Manufacturers Are Helping the Environment by Switching Away from Single-Use Plastics

Single-use plastic cups have always been criticized by organizations that want to

tackle the plastic waste in the country. The reason for this criticism is that these cups

cannot be recycled and they end up contaminating waste streams. As a result, more waste

ends up in landfill. Recognizing the environmental footprint of single-use plastic cups,

paper cups manufacturers have begun to switch away from them. They are helping to minimize

the environmental footprint by encouraging the use of

Paper Cups.
    Paper Cups Can be Recycled
Paper cups are sourced from forests and are a more friendly option than plastics. These

cups can be collected separately and trucked to facilities that can recycle them. Some

lawmakers and companies argue that paper cups are hard to recycle because they contain a

plastic lining that must be separated before the cup can be recycled. This is a totally

ridiculous argument.
    Paper cups be recycled properly if they are collected in special bins and then sent for

recycling to the right facility. It is true that cups can end up in landfills if they are

thrown into regular bins. However, if consumers properly put them into special recycling

bins, they will be recycled by the facilities that possess the ability to remove the

plastic lining from paper before recycling the cup.
    If you often go shopping in shopping malls, you will find that

Kraft Bags are widely used in all walks of

life. For example, clothing stores and shoe stores we often go to are the most common

places to use kraft paper bags. Even when you pack in some fast food restaurants and

beverage stores, you will also use kraft paper bags as

Takeaway Bags. Compared with plastic

bags, the cost of kraft paper bags is higher. Why are so many enterprises willing to use

kraft paper bags? One of the reasons is that more enterprises attach importance to

environmental protection and regard environmental protection as a part of corporate

culture, so they choose more environmentally friendly and renewable paper bags instead of

plastic bags.
    The rise of Insulation Bags in

China can be said to have started in 2006, when McDonald's China gradually implemented

a kind of kraft paper bag with thermal insulation performance in all stores to hold takeout

food, replacing the use of plastic food bags. This move has also received positive response

from other businesses, such as Nike, Adidas and other former large consumers of plastic

bags have begun to use high-quality kraft paper bags to replace plastic shopping bags.
    Of course, there are still some people in the market who have different opinions on

whether kraft paper is environmentally friendly or not. Generally speaking, people who

think kraft paper packaging is not environmentally friendly mainly focus on the

manufacturing process of kraft paper and the selection of raw materials. They believe that

the pulp of paper packaging is obtained by cutting down trees, causing damage to the

ecological environment. The other is the paper in the production process will discharge a

large number of sewage, causing water pollution.
    Through comparison, it is not difficult to see that kraft

Paper Bag is better than a plastic bag in

environmental protection. Today, more and more attention is paid to environmental

protection. An environmental protection kraft paper packaging bag has become the first

choice of more and more manufacturers. If you want to contribute to environmental

protection, you may as well take the kraft paper bag as the first choice for shopping or

food packaging.
