Genomelabs Bio has planned to set up a manufacturing plant in Shamirpet at Hyderabad, Telangana, within next 10 months. The manufacturing plant will produce edible cups, EAT CUP, touted as an environment-friendly alternative to both plastic and paper cups. The facility will spread over nine acre of land area.
The company has also sought necessary clearance from the government. EAT CUP is made from natural grain products and completely edible, crunchy and delicious to taste. Rich in fibre, it is also a good dietary supplement.
As of now EAT CUP was being imported through Europe-based manufacturing partner of Genomelabs, a manufacturer of nutrition, fitness, wellness and lifestyle products. The manufacturing facility will have a capacity of 10 lakh cups per day.
EAT CUP is suitable for all kinds of hot and cold beverages, soups, desserts, yogurt, etc, and stays crispy, without getting soggy, for up to 40 minutes.
