This eco-friendly travel cup design is smashable, so you can carry your reusable mug with you wherever you go (even in your pocket). Currently seeking funding on Kickstarter, the Smash Cup is an environmentally-friendly, collapsible and leak-proof mug for coffee, tea and cold beverages. If you aren't a fan of the standard, bulky travel cup design but also don't want to contribute to the unimaginable amount of cups being thrown away each year, this innovative product is the solution you've been looking for.
Created by Ben Melinger and friends, the Smash Cup needs help financially for its first production run. Ideally it will be available in a variety of colors as well, and is dishwasher safe. Consisting of three simple parts, the mug is also made out of BPA-free materials.
