Product Overview

These 16oz aqueous lined cups are made from FSC certified materials and feature a water-based inner lining that makes them leak-resistant and durable while remaining compostable. Unlike PLA-lined cups, which require industrial composting only, these cups are certified for home composting as well as industrial composting — making disposal more straightforward for businesses and end users alike. Each cup carries a visible QR code with further information about the aqueous lining.

About Aqueous Lining

Aqueous coatings are water-based solutions applied to the inner surface of paper cups to make them leak-resistant and durable. A thin layer of water-based polymers adheres to the paper fibres, creating a barrier that prevents liquid from seeping through — without the use of a conventional PE or PLA lining. This approach allows the cup to be certified for both home and industrial composting.

Home Compostable vs Industrially Compostable

These cups are certified for both home and industrial composting. Home compostable products can be placed directly in a home compost bin and will break down into carbon dioxide, water, inorganic compounds and biomass with no visible contaminants or toxic residues. Industrially compostable products are processed at elevated temperatures with controlled humidity and oxygen levels. Anything certified as home compostable is also suitable for industrial composting. If you do not have a home compost bin, contact your local council to find the nearest industrial composting facility.
