Environmental Achievements
- Using a Thermal KeepCup has a lower footprint than using a single-use paper cup after 8 uses and than using a compostable cup after 4 uses.
- After one year of light usage (once every weekday), using a Thermal KeepCup has a 77-87% lower footprint than using disposable cups.
Climate Goals & Targets
Environmental Challenges
- High carbon intensity of stainless steel compared to other materials.
- Washing the cup after each use is the key hotspot in terms of environmental impact.
Mitigation Strategies
