Benefits of using a reusable coffee mug vs a paper cup


Most coffee drinkers consume coffee every day. If you stop by your favorite coffee shop every day, that’s at least 7 cups being used and eventually wasted every week. That’s over 300 cups annually and that doesn’t even take into consideration other consumables being served in paper cups on different occasions. Here at The Roasterie we have a variety of mugs and travel mugs to meet your coffee-drinking needs AND help save the environment.

So, why should you use a reusable mug to contain your favorite morning beverage? Here’s our opinion:

Environmentally friendly

If you’ve been thinking about stepping up your recycling game (or even just starting your recycling game) converting from paper cups to a reusable mug is a great and easy first step! Many people assume that paper cups can be recycled because they are paper but unfortunately that is not the case. Most paper cups are lined with plastic or wax to help keep your joe hot and to prevent the paper cup from dissolving into mush. Because of this special ingredient, paper cups cannot be recycled or composted.

Heat Retention

Reusable mugs are able to keep your coffee hot for several hours – even if most of the time you may not need it due to your speed of consumption. Insulated travel mugs can be found in a variety of styles. Here at The Roasterie we are confident one of our options will meet your needs.

Convenient

There are many reusable mug options these days that will not only keep your coffee nice and hot but are also spill-proof! Fill up your favorite mug with your favorite blend and forget your fears of coffee stains on your favorite shirt.
