Do you keep your cup for take away coffee or tea?......here's the trick....


A very innovative idea from a clever Australian woman Abigail Forsyth, who after starting a cafe business with her brother in 1998, became increasingly concerned about the volume of packaging waste their business and customers consumed.


Abigail's moment of clarity was when she heated the milk in her daughter's sippy cup one morning, she thought why not do something similar for her two cups of coffee a day...that was her moment....After much research and investigation,12 months later, they came up with the notion to make their own cup.when she decided that take away coffee or tea should be in a reuseable cup...here


The result of all the research, which was exhaustive, is the KeepCup.... inexpensive, available in four sizes, and you can design your own KeepCup, the lid, the cup, band, plug...here
Extra small ....for a delicious espresso...
Small


Excellent for the environment and all the other elements that go with that...who washes the cup and is it sanitised property...you know exactly if you do it yourself...and...it's written on the cup for the barista!
Medium




Large

The look and feel of the KeepCup  is one of the appeals and of course, the other important factor is it is Australian designed and Made in Melbourne....here

Abigail opened a warehouse in the UK in 2012 and in March 2013 they opened in Los Angeles.  KeepCups are now sold in 32 countries around the world....and because they use less plastic, users have diverted billions of disposable cups from landfill....there is enough plastic in 28 disposable cups to make one small KeepCup....they also have a very user friendly website....here

I am sure you will enjoy this Australian product....Wendy
