Dallmayr: Ditch plastic coffee cups NOW!
Eden College Lyndhurst Environmental Club regarding an important sustainability initiative.
As your company currently provides coffee to our school through a machine, we would like to request a phase out of single-use plastic cups and switch to fully reusable or disposable compostable coffee cups.
Traditional coffee cups, particularly those lined with plastic, contribute significantly to environmental waste, as they are often not recyclable. By transitioning to eco-friendly alternatives, your company can help reduce landfill waste, support our school's sustainability efforts, and align with the growing global commitment to environmental responsibility.

Why is this important?
The key benefits of this change include:
- Environmental Impact: Reducing waste and lowering your carbon footprint.
- Corporate Responsibility: Showcasing a strong commitment to sustainability, a value increasingly important to consumers and businesses.
- Practicality: Many reusable and compostable cups now offer the same durability and convenience as traditional ones.
At Eden College Lyndhurst, we are dedicated to promoting sustainable practices, and we would love to collaborate with you to make this transition as seamless as possible. We look forward to discussing how we can work together to implement this change effectively.
