Future Care in 2019 became the first manufacturer in the Toronto area making Canadian paper straws. Using FDA-certified and North American sourced papers, inks, and glues, their premium quality paper straws are environmentally friendly and “stronger for longer!”
If you’re like me, you’re not a huge fan of paper straws but are probably aware of the necessity of the product. In Canada 57 million plastic straws are used daily, and 600 million in the US. These primarily end up in landfills or oceans and wreak havoc on wildlife. Single-use plastics are not a tenable proposition for the planet’s future. If you are running a restaurant, reach out to these folks and switch to paper.
