Have you been fortunate enough to see the new McDonald's Collector's Meal cups that launched earlier this month? The latest set of six cups is made with Eastman Tritan™ and pay tribute to previous releases, featuring fan favorites like Barbie, Hello Kitty, Minions, and their own McDonald's characters. The introduction has caused quite the frenzy for nostalgia seekers and created a hot market for sellers and collectors alike.
Are you collecting? The best thing about these cups is their infinite reusability! Made with Tritan, these hot items will look amazing after repeated washing and many drops — they’re definitely worth the $100 they’re fetching on re-sale sites when you think of them this way.

About Eastman in the circular economy: In 2019, Eastman became the first company to begin commercial-scale chemical recycling for a broad set of waste plastics that would otherwise be landfilled or, worse, wind up in the environment. Eastman's molecular recycling technologies can process waste plastics traditional mechanical recycling methods cannot—including polyesters, polypropylene, polyethylene, and polystyrene—derived from a variety of sources, including single-use plastics, textiles, and carpet. These technologies provide a true circular solution of endless recycling for materials, allowing them to be reused repeatedly.
