SecondNature™ Home Compostable Hot Cups

Meet SecondNature™, the first single-use paper cups suitable for hot liquids that compost anywhere and actually enrich the earth. Unlike traditional options, these cups leave behind no persistent microplastics and address the pollution crisis with a real solution—not just a cover-up. Made with a breakthrough material that outperforms standard PHA and PLA compostables, SecondNature™ Home Compostable Hot Cups are designed to completely disappear in just 90 days.

SecondNature™ is created with sustainability at its core, ensuring that no pollutants are left behind. These cups offer businesses a customizable and home compostable solution that not only serves hot drinks safely but also communicates a commitment to a zero-waste future. By choosing SecondNature™, your brand can promote both quality and responsibility while helping to protect the planet.

Unlike standard paper or PLA-lined cups, which are typically coated with plastics that require industrial composting, SecondNature™ cups are made from a certified home compostable paper and naturally break down within 90 days—without leaving microplastics behind. They are fully tested to handle hot beverages, including boiling water, making them a reliable choice for coffee, tea, and other drinks.

Even if SecondNature™ cups end up in the trash rather than a compost bin, they are engineered to break down without releasing PFAS or persistent microplastics. For best results, they can be added to home, backyard, or roadside compost systems. While shredding or crumpling may speed up decomposition, it is not required for proper breakdown.

Backing up these claims, SecondNature™ made from paper certified to home composting standards including OK Compost Home and ASTM D6400/6868, and approved for direct food contact in both the U.S. and EU. With these certifications, you can trust that SecondNature™ not only performs as promised but also meets rigorous global standards for safety and sustainability.
