Frank Green was officially born in 2013, but the idea for it has been around for much longer. Frank Green´s founder, Benjamin Young, used to play down by the river near his house every afternoon, fishing and skipping stones. But whenever it rained, Ben’s paradise was ruined, as thousands of plastic water bottles and cups came pouring down the river and onto the beach. He was shocked when he learned that every single piece of plastic ever made still exists today. He knew it would continue to ruin special places like his river — unless we stop making it.
Twenty years later Ben was working as an executive, overseeing some of Australia’s largest mergers, when he realized something: he was now in a position to do something about the problem that had bugged him since childhood. He could use his years of devising and implementing business strategies to help solve the plastic crisis. and he was going to start by inventing a reusable coffee cup.
When he told his colleagues about his idea, they told him he was dreaming. They said nobody would ever use it because disposable was too convenient. Proving them wrong became Ben’s number one goal for the next three years. He knew that if he could create something that looked beautiful and desirable, that created a better drinking experience for the consumer, that would save cafes money and that could be popped in a bag and washed once at home — he knew people would choose it over a disposable cup.
So Ben designed a cup that is all of that. Frank Green´s iconic, multi-award winning reusable cups and bottles are now sold around the world and are beloved by millions. And Ben’s obsession to stop the use and manufacture of all single-use plastic products has only grown. Because all kids deserve to inherit a planet free from plastic pollution. By using Frank Green products, we will create a future where they can.
