Convenient, Stylish, Sustainable
How did you come up with the idea for this product?
After finding out that over 165million single use cups end up in landfill every day, we went looking for a reusable alternative. We found a lot of cups but we really couldn't find one that was convenient and easy to carry around with us all day, every day meaning when we needed a cup it wouldn't be with us. We wanted a cup that helped us to produce less waste but without having it being an inconvenience in our lives. So we made one!
What makes your product special?
The HUNU cup is the first truly convenient reusable cup. It folds down small enough to fit into even the tightest pockets meaning it's always with you when you need it. Using durable food grade silicone for the cup and bamboo fibre for the lid, the cup has a heat band to prevent burnt fingers from hot drinks and a built in plug to make it leak proof when folded down. We spent a lot of time looking at every little detail to make it both as practical and convenient as possible without sacrificing the look and feel. It's easy to use, easy to carry and easy to clean!
What has been the best part of your experience?
It's been an amazing experience taking something that was just an idea in our head, turning it into something real and then hearing how much people love it. We still get such a thrill seeing someone walking around with one of our cups and knowing that every time they use it, it's one less disposable cup being thrown away!
