Choose to Reuse

Choose to Reuse – the Studierendenwerk München Oberbayern has been promoting even more sustainability since the beginning of the 2023/24 Winter Semester.

No more disposable cups!

Since 1st October 2023, it is NO LONGER possible to purchase coffee or other hot beverages in disposable cups in any of our locations.

The Studierendenwerk has tried out several systems that allow reusability. Along with the student representations, we have come to the conclusion that the most sustainable system is still having your own reusable mug.

These are the new options you have:

• Bring along your own cup or thermal mug

Do you have a favourite cup or mug which perhaps you got from your grandmother or on a holiday waiting for you at home? Then why not take it along with you and enjoy our coffee and other hot beverages in your own mug. Please be aware that it needs to hold at least approx. 250 ml.

• The Stuwerk Thermal Coffee Mug – especially handy

The Studierendenwerk offers thermal mugs, which can be purchased at a low price in all of our gastronomic facilities.

• StuCup

Or enjoy your hot beverage in our StuCup, available with us from the beginning of November 2024.

• Reusable cups from other deposit systems

It will still be possible to use reusable cups from other deposit systems in any of our gastronomic facilities. Please don’t forget that your cup or mug needs to hold at least approx. 250 ml.

• Borrow a Stuwerk Deposit Mug

Should you not have brought your own cup, don’t worry – you can always borrow a mug from our staff during opening hours (deposit: two euros; only with chip).

Together with all of you, we want to make it possible to enjoy a cup of coffee or tea in a more sustainable way.

A small change for you – with a big effect on our environment!

The StuCup Deposit System in the canteen, the StuBistro and the StuLounge in Martinsried for coffee to go will remain in use.
