| Material | Typical Use | Density (g/cm³) | Avg Weight / Cup (g) | Recyclability | Typical Post‑Consumer Recycling Rate (%) | End‑of‑life Behavior | Carbon Footprint / 1000 cups (kg CO₂e) | Typical Production Method |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| PET (Polyethylene terephthalate) | Clear cold‑drink cups, lids | 1.38 | ~10 | Widely recyclable where facilities exist | ~20 | Typically mechanically recycled or landfilled; not biodegradable | ~30 | Thermoforming from extruded sheet / injection forming |
| PP (Polypropylene) | Hot/cold beverage cups, reusable cup variants | 0.90 | ~6 | Recyclable but collection limited in many areas | ~10 | Mechanical recycling possible; not biodegradable | ~15 | Injection molding / thermoforming |
| PS (Polystyrene, rigid/clarified) | Rigid cold‑drink cups, single‑use containers | 1.05 | ~4 | Limited recyclability; dependent on local streams | ~5 | Often landfilled or incinerated; not biodegradable | ~12 | Thermoforming / injection molding |
