In a six-month pilot project, Interseroh and Burger King are introducing reusable beverage cups in the twelve Burger King restaurants in Cologne and Frechen. A deposit system is being used for the implementation. Burger King is also currently trialling reusable cups and containers in the UK in collaboration with Loop.<\/strong><\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

A deposit system is used for the implementation, with which the reusable cups for hot and cold drinks can be borrowed for one euro and returned to all participating restaurants.<\/p>

With active use of the up to 60,000 cups put into circulation<\/strong> hundreds of thousands of disposable cups can be saved.

The knowledge gained from the pilot project will be used to expand the system throughout Germany and develop further reusable alternatives. The aim is to offer reusable options across the board by 2023<\/strong>.<\/p>

During the pilot period, Interseroh takes over all the steps, to keep the reusable drinks cups in circulation.<\/strong> Once the used cups have been collected, they are cleaned in compliance with all hygiene standards and then delivered to Burger King for reuse.<\/p>
