Starbucks launches biodegradable ‘grounds tube’ made of PLA and coffee grounds.

Starting from April 22, Starbucks will launch straws made of coffee grounds as raw materials in more than 850 stores in Shanghai, calling it “grass straws”, and plans to gradually cover stores nationwide within the year.

According to Starbucks, the “residue tube” is a bio-explainable straw made of PLA (polylactic acid) and coffee grounds, which degrades more than 90% within 4 months. The coffee grounds used in the straw are all extracted from Starbucks’ own coffee. use. The “slag tube” is dedicated to cold drinks such as Frappuccinos, while hot drinks have their own ready-to-drink lids, which do not require straws.
