Frequently Asked Questions — Paper Straws

Do paper straws become soft in drinks?

Paper straws remain sturdy for 30 to 60 minutes in a cold drink, covering the duration of a meal or service. They may soften in very hot drinks or after prolonged use. For quickly consumed beverages (sodas, cocktails), durability is more than sufficient.

Why choose paper straws instead of plastic?

The European Directive 2019/904 bans single-use plastic straws since July 2021. Paper straws are the main alternative adopted by the catering industry. They are biodegradable and recyclable in the paper-cardboard stream. The black paper design offers a sleek and professional look, suitable for bars and restaurants.
