Why zero-microplastic packaging matters in Delhi
Delhi serves an estimated 150+ million cups of chai and coffee daily through its network of roadside stalls, restaurants, offices, and railway platforms. The Delhi government's Single-Use Plastic Ban has been in effect since 2022, yet PE-coated paper cups — technically containing a plastic film — continue to be sold everywhere because enforcement focuses on visible plastic items. Meanwhile, the health cost accumulates silently: 25,000 microplastic particles per cup, multiplied across a city that drinks more tea than almost anywhere else on earth. Delhi's municipal corporations are pushing for better waste segregation, and re-pulpable cups that integrate with paper waste streams directly support that goal. For hospitals like AIIMS and Safdarjung, corporate campuses in Cyber City, and hotel chains in Aerocity, switching to Pratva means demonstrable compliance with both the letter and spirit of Delhi's plastic reduction mandate.
Every standard PE-coated paper cup releases approximately 25,000 microplastic particles into hot beverages. Pratva’s aqueous-coated cups are CPPRI-certified to contain zero plastic film — meaning zero microplastic shedding, full re-pulpability with normal paper waste, and compliance with FDA 21 CFR and FSSAI food safety standards.
