The beach waste material used in the manufacture of this cup has been collected from across the coastline of Cornwall, during numerous beach cleans coordinated by Matt Hulland, Resource Recovery Manager at Exeter City Council, alongside Odyssey Innovation; tireless champions of our coastal health and wildlife. The material is then processed into the sleeve of our Circular Cup, 100% manufactured in our factory in Cornwall.
Discarded or lost fishing tackle, along with fishing rope and all the other flotsam that gathers along our stunning Cornish coastline, if recovered and processed properly, can in fact be a valuable plastic resource. We are really pleased to be able to use this Beach Waste Cup as a showcase for what can be achieved when resource recovery, partnership and some trial and error, is applied.
