We're built on lean engineering
Designed in the UK, our products are created to last using only the highest quality materials. We embrace the concept of lean engineering meaning that where possible our products comprise free-floating parts, so that all of these individual elements can be recycled at end of life (in compliance with ISO 14040 and ISO 14044 guidelines).
Our lids are made from 50% recycled plastic and our cups are made from 90% recycled recycled stainless steel that’s responsibly sourced and meets ethical standards.
After extensive research, we chose stainless steel for its high end of life recyclability without degradation, but also for its durability and heat retention properties making it ideal to be used again and again, for years to come.
Stainless steel also has a lower carbon footprint than glass and ceramics.
We're on a mission to eradicate single-use
by transforming on-the-go drinking, creating reusable products you want to use & can’t leave home without.
Designed to be used and reused
Reusables are designed to be used and reused. They have higher embodied energy (the energy used to make them – material extraction, manufacture and assembly) than disposable cups. Of course they do, because they’re durable and designed for longevity of use. Comparatively, single-use items cost less to produce individually but we know they contribute to convenience culture and an ongoing waste crisis that requires our urgent attention.
If you’re considering buying a reusable for short term use, consider the energy that went into making it and the lifespan required to warrant its purchase. If you don't expect long term usage, you would be better off enjoying your coffee inhouse or using a reusable you already have.
If high use over many years is your expectation, topl is a great choice. The best reusable is the one you use.
