The war against disposable coffee cups and plastic straws has bolstered the consumer need for reusable takeaway containers, which is seeing new accessory options like the 'Portavia' universal lid be introduced with this in mind. Crafted from food-grade silicone, the lid is capable of withstanding high temperatures, is dishwasher-safe and will create a leakproof seal with almost any mug or cup. This allows a person to take a drink with them from home or bring their own mug with them to the coffee house without the need for disposable alternatives to limit their use of single-use packaging.
The 'Portavia' universal lid is the design work of Louis Dombowsky and addresses the shift towards reduced and zero-waste lifestyles as consumers become more aware of environmental conditions.
