V&A grey and orange Keep Cup

Many of the windows in the Gamble Room (part of the V&A Cafe) are decorated with Victorian maxims and mottoes about the joys of eating and drinking such as "Hunger is the best sauce" and "A good cup makes all young". The latter quote has been added to this Keep Cup, which has been designed specially for the V&A. 

This reusable and recyclable cup has many advantages over disposable paper cups in terms of environmental impact, through choice of materials, manufacturing and use.

The Keep Cup starts to pay back in terms of energy, after just 15 uses — including washing. Tested to withstand 1500 uses, it is designed to facilitate recycling at the end of its life, with most components being suitable for normal household recycling (silicone bands can be recycled commercially).
