The straw comparison at a glance
Single-use straws mean enormous running costs. But not every reusable alternative delivers the result you are hoping for either. HALM glass straws have the lowest initial cost and, overall, the lowest cost per year compared with all other straw alternatives.
Some alternatives also perform poorly on durability because of shortcomings in design and quality. Yet the whole point of a reusable straw should of course be long-term reusability.
Alternatives such as metal have further drawbacks: sharp edges pose a risk of injury, the taste of some drinks changes, and dirt inside the straw is almost impossible to spot because the material is not transparent.
Choosing the right straw therefore deserves careful thought. Glass is one of the most trusted materials in hospitality, not only for its elegant style, but also for its durable, high-quality properties. HALM glass straws are the best straws for your drinks on any occasion. Serve your drinks in style while saving money and waste at the same time!
HALM is the best solution
To sum up the comparison: with reusable straws you save up to €5,500 a year compared with single-use alternatives. But choosing the right reusable straw also deserves careful thought. Prices may be at a similar level, but what matters is which material is best suited to hospitality.
It is worth taking a look at our material comparison. The HALM glass straw comes out as the clear winner: thanks to its HACCP compliance and easy cleaning, it is the perfect companion for hospitality, and its rounded rim and taste-neutral material make for a unique drinking experience.
