Shifting to eco-friendly straw options is easier than ever and starts with understanding your local laws and your customers’ expectations. Begin by assessing which straws are allowed in your area—whether paper, PLA, or reusable—and choose products that balance sustainability with performance.
Restaurants can start small by offering straws only upon request and switching to paper or PLA as their standard option. It’s also smart to communicate the change to customers, either through signage or packaging labels, reinforcing your brand’s commitment to sustainability.
Lastly, working with reliable suppliers who provide certified compostable products ensures your transition is smooth and compliant. With the right strategy, going green with straws can be a simple upgrade that benefits both the planet and your brand.
