Brand background and key notes.

Back to products

STRATA CUPS was founded in 2015 by a group of environmentally conscious entrepreneurs who sought to reduce single-use plastic waste in the food and beverage industry. The brand originated in Portland, Oregon, where the founders recognized a growing need for sustainable alternatives to disposable cups commonly used in coffee shops and food vendors.

Initially starting as a small local venture, STRATA CUPS focused on creating reusable cups made from eco-friendly materials that could withstand repeated use while maintaining a stylish appearance. The founders spent two years researching materials and designing their first product line, which included a variety of sizes and styles to cater to diverse consumer preferences.

In 2017, STRATA CUPS launched its first product: a stainless steel reusable cup that featured an innovative double-wall design for insulation. This product quickly gained popularity among environmentally conscious consumers, leading to increased demand and recognition within the local community. The brand began collaborating with various coffee shops to encourage the use of sustainable cups, establishing itself as a leader in the movement towards greener consumer habits.

As the brand developed, STRATA CUPS expanded its product offerings to include additional items such as silicone lids, cup sleeves, and limited-edition designs in collaboration with local artists. By 2019, the company had grown significantly and began distribution beyond the Pacific Northwest, reaching a national audience through online sales and retail partnerships.

Today, STRATA CUPS continues to innovate, focusing on sustainability and durability while maintaining aesthetic appeal. The brand has become synonymous with eco-friendly practices, contributing to the broader awareness of environmental issues within the beverage industry.
