Why Happy Cups?
These days, unfortunately, we are almost used to it. Pictures of beaches littered with plastic. Nature reserves polluted and litter on our streets. For Happy Cups, this is our society’s biggest problem. Even after many initiatives by regulators, the Netherlands has still only made a small fraction of the economy sustainable or circular. This needs to happen faster and, above all, much better.
At Happy Cups, we want to contribute to accelerating this process with a focus on products made of bioplastics made with fossil-free raw materials. Happy Cups does this differently by offering a unique and sustainable alternative.

Our goal
A circulair economy with fossil free products and withouth any plastic waste
By using PHA bio plastic, we are no longer depleting our earth of fossil resources. Because, these raw materials are running out and are anything but sustainable!
Happy Cups is concerned about this and has a different vision. After years of development, we offer a unique alternative that has never been available on the market before.
What is important to us?
That all sustainable raw materials are reused!
At Happy Cups, we make every effort to use every bit of raw material of the cups as sustainably as possible. For example, new products are made from the leftovers. Happy Cups are also made from a type of bioplastic that we can reuse.
Happy Cups are made of a hard type of bioplastic comparable to the hardness of PP. As a result, the cups have an extremely long lifespan and are fine in the dishwasher. When the cup is broken, we can recycle it 100%, making it completely circular!
With this, we are constantly innovating and testing. This way, we ensure that as little of this sustainable material is lost as possible. Burning is unnecessary and does not make us happy!

Happy Cups make the world more sustainable
What are Happy Cups made from?
It has been around for a while, but not yet in this way. Happy Cups are made of PHA bioplastic.
PHA stands for PolyHydroxyAlkanoate. PHAs fall under biopolymers and these are produced or derived from living bacteria present in organic material, such as plants, as well as residues! These biopolymers are biodegradable and dissolve in minerals, which are a food source for nature.
PHA is produced by micro-organisms, similar to how beer or yoghurt is made.
