Developed & Made in Taiwan: Next-Gen Durable Eco Paper Straws & Low-Energy Production Lines
Eco-Friendly, Convenient, Safe & Hygienic | One-Piece Molded Paper Straw
Designed as a single-piece molded paper straw, it upholds sustainability principles by reducing human exposure to plasticizers and cutting plastic pollution. It works with hot or cold drinks, acidic or alkaline beverages, coffee, alcohol, and carbonated drinks. Compared with ordinary paper straws, it is more durable, uses easily sourced raw materials, and is more cost-effective than other eco-friendly material alternatives.
Mission & Purpose
From Structure to Process:
A New Standard for Eco Paper Straws
Since its founding, Taiwan Wanglai Biotech has embraced “healthy living and environmental sustainability” as its core values. In the face of global plastic reduction policies and the pressure to transition away from single-use consumables, we chose to redesign the paper straw from the ground up—both in structure and in process. Through one-piece forming, eliminating adhesives, and reducing energy use and material waste, we aim to achieve a true balance of user experience, sustainability value, and cost efficiency, while becoming a long-term, trusted partner for international brands and supply chains.
Why Change Is Needed
Global Challenges & Market Drivers
The UN, EU, UK, North America, and multiple Asian countries are progressively enforcing single-use plastic restrictions and sustainable procurement standards.
Traditional spiral-wound paper straws soften, delaminate, impart a paper taste, and can interfere with sealing film puncture.
Global demand for paper straws is rising in step with the expansion of bubble tea, ready-to-drink coffee, and large foodservice chains.
" Our response addresses these drivers by simultaneously advancing structural simplification, material utilization efficiency, and durability performance.
Global environmental awareness is rising
with greater emphasis on civic responsibility. Advanced nations have begun implementing plastic restrictions.
- Straws have become integrated into daily life and are irreplaceable.
- Current plastic straw usage creates environmental burden.
- Taiwan's Environmental Protection Administration's plastic reduction policy has begun restricting single-use plastic straw usage.
- Taiwan's annual plastic straw consumption ranks among the top 5 waste items found in beach cleanups year after year.
- The UN World Environment Assembly, with 170 countries participating, has committed to significantly reducing single-use plastic products by 2030.
Straw Usage Volume
| Taiwan | Mainland China | Global |
|---|---|---|
| 3 billion straws/year | 30 billion straws/year | 365 billion straws/year |
