A returnable cup is the most efficient method for coffee-to-go concepts concerning sustainability and an environmentally friendly solution.
Difficulty is to install an efficient collecting system.
The integration of collection points in concepts of traditional waste-bins makes it much easier.
Colletion points are situated at strategically favorable places around the shopping zones - where people have finished consumtion and normally want to throw away the cups
So, first step would be to produce PP (polypropylene) coffee cups.
Advantages:
• dishwasher safe
• min. 20 times use
• food safety
• quick & easy to produce
• low energy consumption

I think it´s possible to install this in stores too.
Maybe this could be the first step - but to get a complete net of deposit centers they should be visible all over the city.

thanks for your comments.
I hope people like these stations. If so, the area will remain clean and vandalism won´t be such a serious problem. The acceptance increases with a cool design and the integration into the urban context.
