Help save the planet with your very own KeepCup

Coffee KeepCup

It’s not a bird. It’s not a plane. It’s not even Superman. It’s the Union Coffee KeepCup - here to help save the planet and 10p off all your hot drinks.

We work hard to be sustainable and help the environment. One of the ways we do this is by offering 10p off a hot drink whenever you use your own travel mug. Union Hand Roasted Coffee, our coffee supplier across campus, have introduced their KeepCup which is perfect for handling your hot drink.

Consumers, and the media, have become very aware of the negative environmental impact of takeaway cups. Using your own mug is a great way to help reduce the impact of cup waste.

The benefits of the KeepCup are:

  • holds a slurp-tastic 12oz of liquid
  • made of fully tempered soda lime glass which means it's pretty tough
  • hard lid for easy use and drinking pleasure
  • a plug to cover the mouthpiece to stop any unwanted bits getting in
  • cork band that is not only beautiful to hold but light, antibacterial, biodegradable and stops you burning your hand.

The Union Coffee Keepcup is available in the Book and Gift Shop and Rootes Grocery Store, costing £17. If you take the cup, or any travel mug, to one of our cafes you’ll get 10p off the price of your hot drink.

So whether it’s an Earl Grey, skinny latte or hot chocolate, you’ll save money and be doing your part for the planet. All in a day's work for a superhero really.


You too can look this happy with your very own KeepCup from Union Hand Roasted Coffee.
