Series Six of ITV2’s hit show Love Island marks the beginning of an exciting new partnership between UK-based reusables brand, Ecoffee Cup, and the broadcaster.
With the aim of helping Islanders ditch single-use cups during their stay at the Cape Town based villa, an all-new brand and product has been unveiled…
Re– to-go Cups have been especially designed by Ecoffee Cup for the current season – and the first winter edition – of the popular ITV reality show, encouraging Islanders to reduce their single-use footprint, whilst also sending a strong and inspiring message to viewers; that it has never been easier for everyone to do their bit in cutting down on single-use waste.
Director of Games, Live & Merchandise for ITV, William van Rest, says that the partnership with Ecoffee Cup signals a significant shift amongst ITV’s audience when it comes to awareness of environmental issues: “The great thing about the Re- to-go Cup is that it provides a practical, stylish and affordable way to choose to re-use every day. Small changes can have a very big impact.”
Available in seven different villa-inspired colours, the Re- to-go Cup is the ideal solution for enjoying both hot and cold drinks on the go. Made from natural materials and both microwave and dishwasher safe, the cup is re-usable for years if looked after.
Ecoffee Cup Founder and Brand Director, David McLagan is hugely enthusiastic about the new partnership with ITV. “Since we started in 2014, we have been at the forefront of the re-use movement, so it’s great that a programme such as Love Island, with its massive following, is coming on-board to help spread the message.”
All seven Re- to-go Cup designs are available now to buy from the new choose.re website.
