Your cup recycling data, all in one place

The Simply Cups Impact Portal turns your collections into clear, ongoing reporting - including emissions - so you can track progress and pull verified numbers when you need them.

What you can track

Collection reporting

See the volume of cups collected and recycled across your network, updated regularly so your data stays current.

Environmental impact metrics

Kilograms of material recovered, cups diverted from landfill, and associated sustainability outcomes - all calculated from your program data.

Site-level visibility

Operating across multiple locations? View reporting by individual site to track participation levels and spot where engagement could improve.

Emissions reporting

See the estimated greenhouse gas emissions of recycling your cups compared with sending them to landfill, modelled from real collection data.

Would you like to see our Impact Portal in action and explore how data-driven reporting can support your sustainability goals?

The numbers behind your emissions data

Emissions figures are modelled estimates, calculated in collaboration with Pangolin Associates, an independent Australian sustainability consultancy. They're built using emissions factors from the Ecoinvent and AusLCA databases under the IPCC 2021 GWP100 methodology, and verified collection data covering the journey from your site to the recycling facility.

 

We've published the full set of assumptions so your team, or your assurance provider, can see exactly how the numbers are built. For more information on the assumptions behind the emissions calculations, visit our emissions methodology page.
