FSC-Certified and PLA-lined sustainable solutions engineered to support Turkey's "Zero Waste" initiative.
Istanbul, bridging Europe and Asia, acts as a primary trade hub for green solutions. The Turkish foodservice and hospitality (HoReCa) sector, centered around bustling culinary hubs in Karaköy, Kadıköy, and Nişantaşı, is experiencing a fundamental transition toward compostable packaging. This shift is driven by strict local municipal regulations and Turkey's alignment with the European Green Deal (EU circular economy directives).
Traditional single-use plastics and PE-coated paper cups are increasingly restricted. Forward-thinking cafes, corporate networks, and international exhibition centers in Istanbul are turning to fully compostable coffee cups to reduce carbon footprint, streamline waste segregation, and appeal to eco-conscious consumers.
Shandong PsiPrime Packaging Co., Ltd. provides direct manufacturing and export capabilities tailored for Turkey. By replacing fossil-fuel-based linings with advanced Polylactic Acid (PLA) and water-based barrier coatings, we help Turkish businesses achieve compliance with global composting standards while maintaining product integrity.
Advancing structural chemistry and sustainable manufacturing to replace conventional single-use plastic cups.
The global packaging industry is undergoing a significant transition from petroleum-derived Polyethylene (PE) laminations to plant-based compostable alternatives. For decades, PE coatings were preferred for their liquid barrier performance, but their resistance to natural degradation has contributed to global plastic pollution. Modern compostable solutions utilize Polylactic Acid (PLA), derived from fermented plant starch, or next-generation water-based dispersion coatings.
These eco-friendly cups are engineered to decompose in industrial composting facilities, breaking down into water, CO2, and organic biomass within 90 to 180 days under controlled conditions. This ensures they do not leave microplastics behind. By utilizing advanced thermal forming and double-wall air insulation, our compostable cups maintain structural integrity when exposed to temperatures above 90°C, offering a reliable alternative to traditional plastics.
A primary challenge in compostable paper cups is maintaining stability when filled with hot beverages like tea or espresso. Our structural design features high-density kraft paperboard combined with double-wall and ripple-wall structures. The air pocket between the paper walls serves as a natural insulator, keeping beverages hot while keeping the outer wall cool to the touch without needing external sleeves. This design reduces waste while improving the user experience for busy cafes and takeaway outlets across Turkey.
Manufactured under strict ISO 9001 and ISO 22000 hygiene management protocols.
Meets European standard EN 13432 and ASTM D6400 criteria for biodegradability.
Ensures all wood fibers are harvested from sustainable, replanted forest eco-systems.
From raw FSC paper reels to high-precision thermoforming, our state-of-the-art facility maintains strict quality standards.

Detailing the rigorous testing and international certifications that validate the safety and environmental performance of our products.
Exporting packaging materials to the Istanbul market requires strict adherence to food safety and environmental declarations. Our compostable coffee cups are certified to comply with the Turkish Food Codex Communiqué on Materials and Articles in Contact with Food. They also align with the European Union Single-Use Plastics Directive (SUPD), which bans specific plastic products and mandates clear labeling for items containing polymers. Our 100% compostable, bio-based barrier cups are engineered to avoid plastic tax levies while supporting sustainable disposal routes.
For packaging to be labeled compostable in Turkey and Europe, it must pass rigorous biodegradation and ecotoxicity tests. Our cups carry certifications from globally recognized testing bodies, confirming that they break down completely under industrial composting conditions without leaving harmful chemical residues. This supports local organic waste collection efforts and contributes to a functional circular economy in urban centers like Istanbul.
