Protect your pocket and the environment with our affordable range of green coffee cups
Who doesn’t love a delicious cup of hot takeaway coffee? Over recent years that all-important takeout coffee has become an essential part of our morning routine. However these single use cups aren’t sustainable; ending up as plastic pollution or in landfill sites.
Here at Single Use Alternatives we provide a wide range of biodegradable and compostable green coffee cups. Designed to be affordable, good for the environment and kind on your carbon footprint. Whether you run a catering business or are simply looking for products to use at home, our cost-effective range provides a convenient alternative to single use coffee cups.
Who we are
Single Use Alternatives was founded by Adrian and Neil; two brothers who are passionate about enjoying the outdoors and caring for the environment. Concerned about the impact single use plastics are having upon the environment, we decided to offer a range of cost effective range of high quality, alternative products.

Affordable plastic-free products delivered to your door
We believe that the majority of plastic free catering products currently available are expensive and difficult to source, making it harder for businesses and individuals to go plastic-free. Our affordable product range and simple, hassle-free ordering system have been designed to address these problems.
From coffee cups, lids and stirrers, through to tableware, deli pots and pizza boxes, we have everything you need to run your catering business, coffee shop or for entertaining at home. Our products are comparable in price to their plastic counterparts and with low-priced delivery services and the option to order as many as you need, shopping with us is as easy as possible.
How our products are recycled
We know that recycling is important to you and your customers so to make things as simple as possible, all our products are compostable or biodegradable. Compostable and biodegradable products are both suitable for disposal in local authority industrial composting facilities where offered. However, compostable products are also suitable for composting at home, although the process will take longer, depending on conditions and method used.
At present, facilities for disposing of compostable and biodegradable items vary from area to area and we are currently working with local authorities and suppliers to ‘close the loop’ and ensure the process is consistent nationwide.
Helping you reduce your impact on the environment
When you consider that over 8 billion tons of plastic has been produced commercially and that the majority of this still exists in some form, something has to be done. A large proportion of plastic is manufactured for just one single use before it is discarded and so it is important for us to find alternatives which are easy to recycle and affordable. Our product range has been designed with exactly this in mind and with cost-effective prices, realistic quantities and a hassle free, mobile-first ordering system, making the switch has become a great deal easier.
