The US economy wastes over 100 million dollars in value from the disposal of single-use plastics every year. As consumer demands are becoming more sophisticated, customers are seeking greater environmental responsibility from the events they choose to attend.

So why are we still seeing venues waste massive amounts of money on single-use plastic cups?

Here’s what events look like with disposable plastic versus reusable cups:

Events with Disposables

  • Single-use plastic cups littering the ground.
  • Negative PR from plastic waste.
  • Missed marketing opportunity from unbranded cups.

Events with Globelet Reusable Cups

  • Single-use plastic free.
  • Enhanced and more personalized experience for attendees.
  • Cost savings on waste management.
  • Marketing brand in positive light with branded cups.
  • Positive PR on your company’s sustainability efforts.
  • End-to-end service including cup delivery, pick, and washing — along with cup organizations systems for your staff.
