Recoup Awards 2025 Winner Badge

ZURICH, October 3, 2025 — Amcor (NYSE: AMCR, ASX: AMC), a global leader in developing and producing responsible packaging solutions, has been awarded the RECOUP Award for Best Plastic Product - Development for Recyclability and Re-Use, for its innovative range of reusable cups.

The objective of the reusable cup and lid range is to optimize the design process with sustainability in mind, incorporating both reusability and recyclability while still offering businesses the opportunity to make their brand stand out with a high-quality packaging solution.
Amcor received the award at a ceremony ahead of the annual RECOUP Conference in September. RECOUP is the UK’s leading independent authority and trusted voice on plastics resource efficiency and recycling.

“In the foodservice industry – particularly the events and takeaway sectors – there has been increasing demand for alternative solutions to single-use packaging,” said Uwe Zinnert, sales director reusables of Amcor.

“We’re delighted that our range has been recognized by RECOUP, an organization that understands the nuances of reusable packaging. Their recognition is a powerful statement about the benefits of our solution.”

The cups are available in 250 ml, 350 ml and 450 ml sizes for hot drinks and soups and 300 ml, 400 ml and 500 ml sizes for cold drinks, to meet differing market and product requirements.
Crafted from polypropylene (PP), the cups are stackable, dishwasher-safe for easy cleaning, and can be used repeatedly. Their innovative heat-insulating ribs ensure comfort and stability for both hot and cold drinks, and the availability of customizable In-Mold Labelling offers enhanced decoration capabilities. When they reach the end of life, the mono-material PP cups remain a valuable feedstock and can be recycled in a dedicated recycling stream in countries with the appropriate recycling infrastructure.

A notable option for the range is the option of embedded RFID chips or unique QR codes, which make the cups easy to track, manage and reuse. In particular, the RFID chip can enable the setting up of streamlined automatic return deposit and refill systems, as well as efficient cup maintenance through wash cycle tracking and inventory management.

The range is further enhanced with a multi-purpose sip lid designed for optimal use with a straw.
