Blenheim Palace and Eden Project reduce cup usage by 600,000 with returnable scheme

Blenheim Palace and the Eden Project have introduced a new returnable cup system, which avoids the need for visitors to drink from single-use cups.






Blenheim Palace and the Eden Project have introduced a new returnable cup system, which avoids the need for visitors to drink from single-use cups.

Collectively the two attractions, which are using the same system, have reduced the need for approximately 620,000 single-use coffee cups per year, a combined saving of 27 tonnes of CO2e per year, which the Eden Project said equates to heating 12 domestic homes for 12 months.

In its place are reusable and returnable cups, from company re-universe. The returnable cup scheme is now fully operational at both attractions following a pilot.
