The Straw<\/h2>\n\n

Loliware’s straw offers consumers a plastic-like but plastic-free alternative to traditional plastic straws. The compostable innovation is made of seaweed and is therefore compostable and absolutely environmentally friendly. It also represents an opportunity to reduce global plastic consumption without having to give up the previous plastic experience. Particularly practical is the 18-hour and varied use of The Straw. <\/p>\n\n
