Unlike other plastic straw alternatives, such as paper straws or pasta, our drinking straw 2.0 does not lose any of its properties while drinking. On the contrary, it is even dishwasher safe and reusable. The drinking straw 2.0 does not become soft and does not dissolve in the drink after a certain time. The properties are almost 1:1 comparable to a classic plastic straw - without being made of petroleum-based plastic.

Yes, because our #IAMPLASTICFREE drinking straws 2.0 are heat-resistant up to 85°C and therefore dishwasher-safe. You can easily reuse them.

Yes. Like ordinary drinking straws made from petroleum-based plastic, our #IAMPLASTICFREE drinking straws 2.0 have no taste of their own.

No, even if they are made of natural materials, they are not suitable for consumption.

In principle, our #IAMPLSTICFREE drinking straws 2.0 are also suitable for children. However, we recommend using it from a child's age of 3 years and under adult supervision.

Our #IAMPLASTICFREE drinking straws 2.0 do without petroleum-based plastic. As a result, our straws are free of environmentally harmful plastic and cannot produce any microplastics during composting.

Since our #IAMPLASTICFREE drinking straws 2.0 do not differ from the usual plastic straws at first glance, we are firmly convinced that the straw must communicate this message. We therefore use the hashtag "#IAMPLASTICFREE" on all our drinking straws 2.0. In this way, it is made clear to the guest in a charming way that this is a plastic-free drinking straw alternative. The print in the form of a hashtag also encourages people to share the drink including the straw online via social media channels such as Instagram, Facebook or Pinterest.

In consultation, we generally offer companies the option of co-branding. This means that in addition to our #IAMPLASTICFREE hashtag, a brand logo, slogan or similar can be printed on the straw. A minimum purchase quantity is required for this. If you are interested, please contact us via the contact form or email hello@iamplasticfree.org and we will send you all the details.

In principle, our drinking straws 2.0 are certified both for disposal via home compost and for industrial composting. Disposal via the "green bin" is not recommended, however, because composting plants cannot (yet) recognize the stalks as plastic-free products and, on the other hand, many composting plants currently (still) run in a composting rhythm that is too short, so that the stalks are not can be fully composted. Both lead to the stalks having to be sorted out at great expense, which would not be expedient. With the increasing use of alternative, sustainable materials, it can be assumed that composting processes and recycling options will soon be developed further. Until then, we recommend disposal with the residual waste. The stalks are used thermally, but at the same time new energy is gained from this process.
