When it comes to packing space, we always look at the items\nthat will take up less space, so that we can fit in more.  That is just how we do things, because less\nis not always more, right?  We\u2019ve started\nusing the old tin cups, but they are always so noisy, especially on a dirt\nroad.  They were always packed with some bubble\nwrap, foam or a cloth wrapped around them. \nThis didn\u2019t change when we switched over to ceramic mug.   We even had more to worry about as they\ncould also break.  With the silicone cup\nthat is foldable, it takes up minimal space and can even clip onto the outside\nof your backpack when you hiking bag is full. \nNo excuse to leave that precious coffee mug behind.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

A tin cup used to burn my hands so much that I would get\nblisters while enjoying my morning coffee. \nWhile the ceramic cups have better insolation, some still retains the\nheat and you will soon find yourself looking for a place to put down your coffee\nwhile waiting for it to cool down.  The\nsilicone cup does have one disadvantage though, it comes in two parts.  One part is the foldable, durable silicone\ncup and the other is the plastic ring that wraps around the mug to prevent your\nhands from burning when holding the cup. \nThe design, however, has been thought through and the ring fits\nperfectly into the folded mug\u2019s bottom for storage.  <\/p>\n\n\n\n

We have tried and tested so many different shapes and sizes, makes and models, but we finally found the one! And we simply had to share it with you. Being environmentally conscious, we are constantly aware of the products used in the production of the travel mug and even though the now very popular bamboo cups are better than the styrofoam cups, they too have some bad elements that keep them together such as formaldehyde and melamine, which ends up in your hot drink after a couple of uses.  Therefore, we decided to make use of a silicone cup.  We believe in it so much, that we decided to stock it in our online store.
