PAPLUS® Stacking Tumbler Black with Lid
(Paplus Stacking Tumbler Black Wizlid)
Lot.No.CMN2410300700STBL
Until now, only "plastic-free tumblers" were available for products with lids, and there were no lids compatible with stacking tumblers, but with the addition of a series with a silicone lid (lid), we have responded to the request of "What about the lid of a stacking tumbler?"
It is made of silicone, so it will not chip if dropped, and it is easy to handle.
The main raw materials of PAPLUS® products are PLA (polylactic acid), which is mainly composed of lactic acid obtained by fermenting corn starch, and paper.
By making it with earth-friendly materials, it has a unique texture of natural materials, such as ceramics and wood products, and we value individuality such as color and shade so that you can use it with affection.
■CO2 reduction: Approximately 180g-CO2e/piece reduction
*This data is a comparison based on the specific gravity of the material, assuming PP (polypropylene) material of the same shape and volume. The evaluation is based on LCA (raw material-commercialization-incineration) based on theoretical combustion, and each material has the same grade (heat-resistant/non-heat-resistant, etc.).
■Particular design
PAPLUS Stacking® Tumbler Black has a simple design to take advantage of the unique material feel. The minimum is finished in matte black color to match the silhouette. Another point is the stable weight balance created by increasing the thickness towards the bottom.
■About urethane coating
The paint used this time is a urethane coating that dissolves black pigment in urethane resin and complies with the Food Sanitation Act. In addition, PAPLUS, which has a high proportion of naturally derived ingredients, is a little delicate to water, just like wood products, but by coating it with urethane, it increases water resistance and has the effect of reducing the speed of change over time.
In fact, the biodegradable resin (polylactic acid) derived from corn, which is the main raw material of PAPLUS®, has the property of repelling paint. We were able to solve this problem by using the primer coating technology of a partner factory that has know-how in lacquering, which is Japanese manufacturing.
*The recovered color variations can be removed with a grinder or other tool, and the inside is not painted, so only the pure PAPLUS® materials can be efficiently used for the reproduction process.
■Commitment to packaging
The packaging uses "chipball", which is 100% recycled paper made from waste paper from newspapers and magazines, which matches the texture of PAPLUS®, which is a natural material.
■Materials that harmonize with the earth
Approximately 86% of the PAPLUS stacking® tumbler black is made of resin and paper derived from corn, which are plant-derived ingredients. The main components are viscous minerals (about 7%) and petroleum-derived additives (about 7%) to ensure heat resistance. *1 In addition, most of the materials are decomposed into water and carbon dioxide by microorganisms. *2
*1 Please be assured that the minimum additives used comply with the Food Sanitation Act stipulated by the Ministry of Health, Labor and Welfare.
Many of the so-called eco-friendly products do not mention additives.
Please note.
*2 The time and degree required for disassembly vary greatly depending on the environment, so we cannot guarantee 100%.
■Hot drinks are also OK
While many products with high plant-derived ingredients and high purity do not have heat resistance, the heat resistance of PAPLUS Stacking® Tumbler Black is 120°C, so you can use it for warm drinks with confidence.
■Recycling instead of disposable
PAPLUS® products are incinerated if they are disposed of as garbage. It is carbon neutral (virtually does not increase CO2) because it is mostly made of plant-derived ingredients, but please cooperate in recovering it as a resource and reproducing it rather than incinerating it as garbage. Let's create a new cycle together.
