Ditch Plastic Coffee Cups – The Planet and Your Health Can’t Wait!

Dallmayr,
You say biodegradable cups cost too much.
We say machines for reusable cups are too expensive to rent from you.
But pollution is costing us all far more.

But pollution is costing us all far more.
Every plastic-lined cup you use lingers for centuries — choking landfills, poisoning oceans, and breaking down into microplastics that contaminate our water, soil, and food.
And it’s not just the Earth. Your health is at risk too.
Plastic and wax-lined cups can leach toxic chemicals into your drink.
Poorly maintained machines breed mold and bacteria.

Why is this important?
Here’s the truth:
- Disposable = Disastrous
Mountains of waste. Air and water pollution. Wildlife in danger. - Reusable & Biodegradable = Responsible
Less waste. Lower carbon footprint. Healthier people. Healthier planet.
Biodegradable cups are made from safe, plant-based materials and break down quickly — unlike plastic, which outlives us all. Many reusable or compostable options are now just as practical as plastic, but infinitely smarter.
The choice is clear:
Convenience is not worth the cost.
Stop the excuses. Start the change.
Ditch plastic. Choose better. Now.
