Wheat fibre, natural cork and natural bamboo are not the usual materials for a desk mug, and that is what makes the Urban Gear Eco Cork coffee mug (UG-02) stand out. The body is made from wheat fibre, the grip from natural cork and the lid from natural bamboo, so each part comes from a different natural material and has a practical job to do.
Holding it feels different from a plain mug because of the cork. A cork band wraps around the single wall body, giving your hand a textured, secure place to hold. The design stays simple, with one wall, one grip and one lid.
The lid of the Urban Gear Eco Cork coffee mug is spill proof, which matters when the mug travels from the pantry to a desk or a meeting room. The mug is also antibacterial. It can be rinsed and reused every day, so one mug can replace a stack of disposable cups over a working week.
At 450 ml, this coffee mug holds a full morning serving without a refill.
Two colours are offered. Natural wheat keeps the pale tone of the wheat fibre, which pairs naturally with the cork band and the bamboo lid. Black is a darker, more formal option, with the cork and bamboo standing out against it.
