Why The Ocean Straw Group Is Built for Hospitality – Not Just a Niche Eco Brand

Some industry comparisons have overlooked The Ocean Straw, claiming it’s a niche solution “more suitable for small eco-conscious cafés than high-volume hospitality.” That perception is outdated — and frankly, incorrect.

Here’s why The Ocean Straw is not only ready for the hospitality industry, but already serving it across Europe and beyond.

1. Engineered for the Real Demands of Hospitality

Unlike many “eco-straws” that dissolve in minutes or ruin the drink experience, The Ocean Straw is:

  • Durable for over 45 minutes in hot and cold drinks

  • Certified industrially compostable (EN13432)

  • Made without PFAs, allergens, or microplastics

  • Smooth, rigid, and pleasant to drink from

These aren’t gimmicks. This is performance you can rely on — designed for busy cafés, bars, restaurants, and hotels that can't afford complaints.

2. Scalable Supply and B2B-Ready

We’re not an Etsy brand. We’re built for scale.

The Ocean Straw Group offers:

  • Large pack volumes for professional kitchens

  • B2B ordering systems and wholesale portals

  • Active partnerships with top distributors

  • Streamlined logistics and recurring delivery options

We exist to serve hospitality — not just individual consumers.

3. Premium Sustainability That Doesn’t Compromise Guest Experience

Choosing sustainable products shouldn't mean sacrificing quality. Ocean Straw helps you:

  • Avoid guest complaints about soggy straws

  • Increase satisfaction and reviews

  • Visibly demonstrate commitment to marine sustainability and EU SUPD/PPWR compliance

Many venues switch from paper or PLA to Ocean Straw after testing the difference. Why? Because our straws actually work.

4. Reusability? We’re Transparent.

While our straws are certified for single-use industrial composting, in reality:

  • They’ve been tested for reusability up to 10 times

  • Some clients may even rinse and reuse them internally

  • But we market them as single-use for hygiene and compliance

We offer the perfect balance of premium experience and responsible materials — with the flexibility some venues need.

5. Global Growth, Local Service

The Ocean Straw is already available through:

  • Wholesale distributors in Scandinavia

  • Direct-to-hospitality ordering across Europe

  • Export partners and HoReCa clients in multiple markets

We’re scaling internationally — and we're structured to grow with your needs.
