Aqueous vs PLA vs PE — What’s the Actual Difference?

Most compostable coffee cups on the Irish market use PLA — a plant-based plastic that requires industrial composting at temperatures above 58°C. Industrial composting facilities are not widely available in Ireland, which means most PLA cups end up in general waste despite the compostable label. Greenspirit uses a water-based aqueous coating with no plastic content — genuinely home compostable and re-pulpable through standard paper recycling.

Best For

Ideal fit: Espresso drinks, cortados, flat whites and small coffees where the 8oz (227ml) capacity is the right size and a genuinely plastic-free compostable cup without a sleeve is the format.

• Espresso drinks and cortados — the primary use case — the 8oz (227ml) is the industry standard for espresso-based drinks; the double wall construction keeps the drink hot and the outside cool without a sleeve
• Cafés with public sustainability commitments — the aqueous lining is verifiable; home compostable within 24 weeks means customers can test it; re-pulpable means it’s accepted in standard paper recycling
• Takeaway coffee service — no sleeve required; simplifies the supply chain and reduces cost per serve
• Zero-waste events and farmers’ markets — home compostable on-site without special infrastructure; no industrial composting facility required
• High-volume coffee service — 500 cups per case; deep stock held year-round from our Dublin 12 warehouse

Technical Specifications

Composting in Ireland — How It Works

These Greenspirit cups are home compostable within 24 weeks in a standard garden compost bin — no industrial composting facility required. Clean cups can go in standard paper recycling (re-pulpable). Soiled cups go in the brown bin where they break down within 24 weeks. The aqueous lining breaks down along with the paperboard — no separation required. Most Irish councils accept compostable packaging in the brown bin; check your local authority’s guidelines for confirmation.
