World Centric biodegradable and compostable paper hot cups are lined with NatureWorks Ingeo™ polylactic acid (PLA), which is derived from corn grown in the USA. Most cups you'll find on the market are lined with polyethylene and wont compost.

World Centric is also happy to announce a new line of unprinted cups made from FSC Certified paper. The white color is Elemental Chlorine Free (ECF) which means they are bleached without elemental chlorine.

Instead of using petroleum based plastics which create toxicity and environmental pollution, you can now use our compostable alternatives.

Please note, composting is required for biodegradation. These compostable cups will biodegrade within 30 days in a commercial composting facility, and within 90 days in a home composting system.
