With 500 billion single-use plastic cups discarded annually, LumiCup is tackling the problem head-on, recently closing a $4.4M Series A funding round. The capital infusion will support the company's mission to replace ubiquitous plastic disposables with infinitely recyclable aluminum alternatives.
LumiCup offers 9 oz., 12 oz., and 16 oz. aluminum cups designed to be recycled and back on shelves within 60 days. The company highlights that while 95% of plastic never gets recycled, most aluminum does, offering a more sustainable choice that also keeps drinks cooler and performs better.
