Cupcycle is a New Zealand owned and operated company recycling take-away coffee cups nationwide.

With New Zealanders throwing away over 295 million coffee cups a year, we saw a need in the recycling sector to do our part. That’s over 5,310 tonnes of recyclable material sent to our landfills! So we teamed up with our recycling partners to find a way to stop sending disposable paper coffee cups to refuse stations and start making use of them.

Here’s How It Works:

You enjoy your morning cup of coffee and place it in one of our collection stations. We gather the used cups and send them to our recycling facility where they are turned into raw material for our business partner to turn into a usable building product.

This is one measurable way that we, as Kiwis, can ensure that our waterways, beaches and bush stay pristine for future generations.
