No. City Straws are backed by our NEVER SOGGY PROMISE. Our straws are made with PHA biopolymer, a marine-degradable resin made from canola oil. What you get is a material that looks and feels like a plastic straw, but will break down into CO2 and biomass within 90 days.
Yes. All City Straws PHA products are certified compostable. We have the highest compostability certifications including: TUV Home, TUV Soil, TUV Industrial, BPI Industrial, and CMA.
No. Although the material is marine-degradable, we do not want to put the straws in the water. We want to dispose of them properly in the compost bin first, or your regular trash bin if compost is unavailable. Marine-degradable certifications are reserved for products that are supposed to be used in a marine environment. In this case, drinking straws obviously do not meet that requirement.
For City Straws PHA drinking straws, we have a variety of sizes available. Length and width dimensions can be found on each individual product page. From smoothie straws, to cocktail stirrers, we have the right tool for the job. When making your purchase, make sure you double-check the width before submitting your order. Here is a good rule of thumb: Stirrers/Cocktail - 3.5mm | Standard - 5.5mm | Giant 7mm
Our case packs are listed on each individual product page. You can find case pack info to the right of the product image, and also in the Product Description. City Straws also has smaller, inner packs available for purchase.
City Straws are in several of fulfillment centers around the country. Typically, once an order is placed it will ship out next business day for a 1-2 day delivery time. Events like severe weather and health & safety protocols may impact these times. If so, we'll communicate updates as needed.
