SOFi Paper Products Unveils the SOFi Cold Cup, the First Biodegradable Cup to Eliminate a Lid
- SOFi Products, the Miami-based creator of durable, compostable paper SOFi Straws, announced today it has released the first 100% biodegradable cup that eliminates the need for a plastic lid.
There are no cups currently on the market that are 100% biodegradable
and eliminate the need for a plastic lid," said SOFi co-founder Brandon Leeds.
"Until now, all cups — even those that say 'compostable' — must either
be sent to a composting facility or recycled. Both rarely occur and cups
end up in landfills where they will take decades to biodegrade. If the
SOFi Cold Cup ends up in the ocean or a landfill, it will be gone in
under 180 days. This product is made to be unmade."
