REUSABLE CUPS ON AIRLINES?

Reusable cups on Airplanes?
If you have ever flown business class, you get a glass cup, so why can’t everybody on the plane get at least a reusable cup?
That is the question many airlines have been asking over the past 6 months as the war on waste movement has been growing.
Because Globelet is worlds leading reusable systems provider and has over 8 years experience washing and drying reusable packaging for major stadiums and events almost every company has reached out to us for a solution.
And we have one.
These are the challenges of reusable cups on airlines
- How do you sort the cups from other waste? (No different to disposables)
- How do you wash them?
- How do you make them as cheap as disposables (Airlines are on tight margins)
- How do you make them as light on a disposable (Airlines are constantly trying to reduce weight to increase margin)
- How do you manage them on an international airport system where they have no control over the waste collection and laws prohibit everything but incineration?
These are the major issues of reusable cups on flights.
