Revolutionary self-destruct plastic tumblers

The revolutionary TWOinONE Flexy-Glasses enable single-use polypropylene to break down into a wax like structure returning the material to nature, leaving behind absolutely no micro-plastics, or toxicity. All that remains is carbon dioxide, water and biomass.

So ground breaking and phenomenal is the development that the HRH King Charles III selected the product as part of his Terra Carta brand, which was showcased for the first time at Kelvingrove Gallery in Glasgow, at COP26. King Charles III commented... “brilliant ideas like this come from realising that nature has worked out how to fix most of the problems we face”.

The tumblers made from this material can either be collected and recycled or if for some reason they become part of the fugitive plastic waste stream, which is approximately 32% of all plastics, that’s about 2 billion tonnes, they will biodegrade in less than a year, without any micro plastic being present.

Importantly if fugitive plastic can be reduced on land, it will automatically reduce the amount of plastic that enters rivers and oceans, thereby improving the marine environment.This is what makes it different to other technologies that leave plastic fragments or particles, and therefore are not truly biodegradable.

The new material is reinforced by the British standard BSI PAS 9017 which independently verifies that the plastic biodegrades.
