MugToGo holders are fully recyclable and compostable.

Coffee sleeves are made from heavily processed corrugated material, and although they contain post-consumer fiber ("PCF"), the corrugated industry uses extensive resources to generate corrugated medium.

MugToGo eliminates the need for drink trays or bags to carry several cups of coffee, reducing the overall consumption of paper. They work with lighter cups, reducing the use of paper. MugToGo holders work with cups which use high PCF content.

Paper cups weight an average of 12g (12oz), 14g (16oz) and 16g (20oz). MugToGo holder weights 6g. The overall eco-impact for "cup with sleeve" or "cup with the holder" combination needs to be determined by examining the entire set, since we don't use sleeves or holders without cups.

Paper cups need to be strong to withstand forces of normal use. High percentage of PCF softens the paper, and cups of a high eco- value tend to be very expensive due to the manufacturing issues.

MugToGo introduces new functionality and converts paper cups into mugs. Since all forces concentrate at the handle, the strength of a paper cup is no longer required. As a result, lighter cups with higher PCF can be used.

MugToGo offers a much more eco-friendly solution as compared to any sleeves. Since we can use 15% lighter cups, it represents 30% to 40% savings in weight of 6g MugToGo holder.

Traditional coffee cups must be strong to survive normal use and support forces from various directions. The cups available on the market today use a lot of paper.

MugToGo holders are held by a handle, away from the cup. They offer much better functionality using the same amount of paper as traditional coffee sleeves.
Muge(TM) cups will use less paper and a higher content of recycled materials since they don't have to be as strong as traditional coffee cups.

You can carry 2 mugs or 3 mugs in one hand without any drink carriers or bags typically used with coffee cups fitted with sleeves.
