Join Vegware’s Kate Chambers to find how we made the Edinburgh Coffee Festival the UK’s first zero waste event.

We love our coffee, but we want to be sure that our takeaway coffee cups aren’t ending up in landfill or as marine pollution.

Initiatives to recycle plastic-lined paper cups are helping, but what about the lid, stirrer, spoon and sandwich box? In reality, used takeaway packaging is a mix of materials contaminated with food, and goes to incineration or landfill.

Vegware, the compostable packaging manufacturer, has launched an innovative service that enables foodservice to recycle all takeaway packaging, not just cups.

This talk will take place at 14.30 in Room 1.
