What is so special about these paper straws?

Sustainability

What does FSC™ certified mean?

FSC™ certified paper straws are an eco-friendly and sustainable alternative to plastic, made from paper sourced from responsibly managed forests. These straws are biodegradable, breaking down naturally without harming the environment. By choosing FSC-certified options, you support responsible forestry practices that protect ecosystems and communities. Plus, they’re free from harmful chemicals, making them a safe and non-toxic choice for consumers.

Durability

Will these straws become soggy with use?

3-ply FSC paper straws are designed to be durable and resistant to becoming soggy quickly. The three layers of paper provide extra strength and help prevent the straw from breaking down too fast, even with extended use. However, while they can handle drinks for a reasonable amount of time, they may still soften if left in liquid for a long period (such as in a very slow drink). Generally, though, they perform well for typical use—whether it’s in a cold or warm beverage. So, for standard drinking durations, they shouldn’t get soggy too quickly.

About FSC™ certified paper straws.

FSC™ certified paper straws are an eco-conscious alternative to traditional plastic straws, made from paper sourced from responsibly managed forests. The Forest Stewardship Council (FSC) certification guarantees that the paper used in these straws comes from forests that meet high environmental, social, and economic standards. This makes them not only sustainable but also a great choice for businesses looking to reduce their environmental impact.

The importance of FSC™ certified paper straws for marine life

Plastic straws are one of the most commonly found items polluting our oceans, and they pose a serious threat to marine life. Sea creatures like turtles, dolphins, and seabirds often mistake plastic straws for food, leading to ingestion, injury, or even death. Plastic can take hundreds of years to break down, and during that time, it continues to pollute the environment. By switching to paper straws, businesses and consumers can help reduce plastic waste and protect marine life by choosing a biodegradable alternative that won’t harm wildlife.

Why plastic straws are bad for the environment

Plastic straws are harmful because they are single-use and non-biodegradable. After being used, they often end up in landfills or, worse, in rivers and oceans. Once in the water, they break into tiny pieces known as microplastics, which are nearly impossible to clean up and can be ingested by marine animals. The production of plastic straws also contributes to pollution, as plastic is made from petroleum-based materials. Transitioning to paper straws, especially FSC™ certified ones, helps reduce plastic pollution and minimises environmental damage.

Customers appreciate sustainable paper straws

Consumers are increasingly aware of the environmental impact of their purchasing choices, and many actively seek products that align with their eco-conscious values. FSC™ certified paper straws are a popular choice because they not only support sustainability but also offer a high-quality, functional alternative to plastic. Customers appreciate knowing that the products they are using are responsibly sourced and contribute to a healthier planet. For businesses, offering FSC™ certified paper straws can help enhance your brand’s reputation as an eco-friendly and forward-thinking company.
