Silicone Straw Recycling Scheme
What are the straws made of?
Our colourful bendy straws are made with medical grade silicone and so need to be recycled in a specific way. Our recycling scheme allows customers to return their straws so they can be made into new and useful things.
Partnering with Terracycle
We are dedicated to ensuring that we close the loop in our supply chain, and by offering a facility whereby customers can return their straws for recycling we can do just that! We have teamed up with Terracycle to ensure our straws are recycled in the UK. Find out more about Terracyle here
If you are a customer of The Silicone Straw Company and wish to recycle your straws then please send an email to the email address below using the subject "Straw Recycling". We will send you details of the postage address to send your straws to and we will be able to answer any further questions you may have.
