Paper and board manufacturer Detpak has ramped up its range of PE-lined cups with imagery inspired by coffee-producing nations.
Launched in March this year to reflect the architecture, textiles, and traditions of countries such as Guatemala, Cuba, and Mexico, the cups draw consumers' attention to the coffee's origin.
The three new designs, lined with bioplastic, celebrate Indonesia, Uganda, and Ethiopia and tell a story through the unique patterns.
Branded as the Detpak Coffee Origins Cup Gallery, the range reflects Detpak’s vision to make a positive and sustainable impact overseas by supporting social change.
Detpak’s group marketing manager Shane Fuller said five per cent of cup sales contributes to partner organisations working to improve the health, education and food security of families in rural coffee growing communities.
The first charity to be supported is Guatemalan-based Pueblo a Pueblo, which is focused on sustainable programs to improve the lives of people in coffee-growing communities.
The Coffee Origins cups are the latest addition to Detpak's expanded 'I am eco' range, which now has close to 230 packaging items, all biodegradable and made from nature, or recyclable.
There are also updated minimalist hot cup designs, sugarcane trays with recyclable PET dome lids, and more traditional paperboard packaging like Endura clams and snack boxes, napkins, and paper bags.
