RECUP: The reusable cup

Reusable cups are available in the sizes 0.2l, 0.3l, 0.4l and 0.5l. They were specially developed to meet the demands of the gastronomy:

Thanks to their variety in sizes, they work for all kinds of beverages.
The cups are dishwasher-safe, stackable and space-saving
The to-go cups are food-safe, BPA-free and shatterproof
In addition to the deposit cup, a deposit lid is available

REBOWL: The reusable bowl

Bowls are available as REBOWL (1100ml), REBOWL with a divider and REBOWL (550ml). They were developed to meet the demands of the gastronomy:

The bowls are leak-proof and heat-resistant up to 90 °C
Stackable to save space & optimize the drying process
Dishwasher safe
BPA free, shatterproof and 100% recyclable
