When you're in a rush in the morning, a hot coffee can sweeten your way to work. But a guilty conscience can spoil the pleasure: we throw away at least 2.8 billion single-use cups every year – a huge amount of waste. Are reusable mugs a sustainable alternative?
Reusable mugs are basically all drinking cups that can be used more than once. Sustainable travel mugs with a lid were developed especially for enjoying coffee on the go. These reusable mugs can be made from stainless steel, hard plastic, glass or porcelain.
A reusable mug can be used more than once – unlike a disposable cup. That’s why it creates much less waste. For comparison: every German throws away on average 130 disposable cups a year. Thousands of single-use cups end up in the oceans and endanger entire ecosystems. A reusable coffee mug can last for many years, saving hundreds of single-use cups.

Instead of buying take-away coffee in a disposable cup, you can make your coffee at home and take it with you in your reusable mug. This will save you time as you will no longer have to stand in a queue at the till in a bakery or café. And it’s cheaper in the long run. By the way, many coffee houses are more than happy to pour their coffee specialities into reusable mugs that customers bring with them – after all, it also reduces their costs. So, next time you want to get a take-away coffee, just ask!
A good reusable mug is obviously slightly more expensive than a simple plastic cup. But it is actually cheaper than you might think: Villeroy & Boch offers stylish travel coffee mugs made from high-quality porcelain in different price brackets, depending on the décor and material. An investment in an eco-friendly, enjoyable coffee experience that’s worth every penny.

If you are planning on buying a reusable mug, you should take note of
the following points:
● Material: Reusable mugs made from porcelain have the best quality.
They are odourless and tasteless, provide a timelessly
stylish coffee experience and impress with their familiar drinking feeling.
● Lid: A cup with a lid ensures the hot drink
will not spill over the rim or splash. Moreover,
the lid protects the hot drink from cooling too quickly.
● Seal: To prevent spillages, a
good coffee mug needs a firm seal.
● Heat protection: To make sure you don’t burn your fingers while enjoying your
coffee, a reusable mug needs built-in
heat protection or a sleeve.
● Cleaning: For the perfect hygienic solution, the cup should be easy
to clean. It should preferably be dishwasher-safe.
● Design: You will enjoy your travel mug even more if
it expresses your personal style. Villeroy & Boch has
reusable mugs in simple colours and printed with many
attractive designs.
