Making Reuse Easy for Every Event

Events are meant to be enjoyed — but they produce huge amounts of waste. UK festivals alone use 100+ million disposable cups every year, most ending up incinerated or in landfill.

Eco Cups provides a smarter solution: reusable cup systems that cut waste, lower carbon emissions, and deliver a cleaner, more sustainable event environment.

Making Reuse Easy for Every Event

Events are meant to be enjoyed — but they produce huge amounts of waste. UK festivals alone use 100+ million disposable cups every year, most ending up incinerated or in landfill.

Eco Cups provides a smarter solution: reusable cup systems that cut waste, lower carbon emissions, and deliver a cleaner, more sustainable event environment.

Why Switch to Reusable Cups?

Reusable cups can be washed and reused hundreds of times — and recycled at end of life — meaning nothing goes to waste. Eco Cups offers flexible, tailored solutions for everything from local community events to large multi-day festivals and stadiums.

How It Works — Step-by-Step

1 Choose Your Cups
Select from pint, half-pint, wine, cocktail, or coffee cups — generic or fully branded.
2 Plan Your Scheme
We help you choose the best model — deposit or levy — based on venue layout, crowd type, and sustainability goals.
3 Serve & Collect
Drinks are served in reusable cups and guests return them to designated points with clear signage.
4 Wash & Reuse
Cups are cleaned on-site or off-site to food-grade standards, ready for reuse again and again.
5 Store or Recycle
We can safely store cups for future events or recycle them in our closed-loop UK system.

Event Scheme Options

Option 1: Refundable Deposit Scheme

The most popular model for large events.

Guests pay a small deposit (e.g. £1) for their first cup
Swap for a clean cup with each drink
Return at the end for a refund — or keep as a souvenir
Unreturned cups generate revenue and drastically reduce litter

Option 2: Compulsory Levy Scheme

Ideal for smaller or family-friendly events.

Cup cost built into the first drink
Discount on refills when reusing the same cup
Easy, cashless system — keeps queues moving
Guests can return cups or keep them at the end
