The company has manufactured the new biodegradable straws using high-grade material and maintained a stable structure to last longer.

4 Aces sales director David Blake said: “With smaller children and anyone likely to struggle, going without a straw isn’t always an option.

“We’re expecting to generate a healthy level of interest as we are enjoying high sales across all of our biodegradable products following the launch of our PLANET range earlier this year.”

“This eco-friendly alternative to the plastic straw gives consumers the opportunity to make the right choice and it impacts positively on the sustainability agenda of the seller, whether that’s a pub, a café or any other retail outlet.
