Single Wall Paper Cups

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

• Q: Are single wall cups safe for hot drinks without a sleeve?

• A: For very hot beverages, a sleeve is highly recommended to prevent the cup from being too hot to handle comfortably.

• Q: Do the cups deform when filled with ice?

• A: No, our paperboard is sufficiently robust to maintain shape, and the inner lining resists condensation saturation, keeping the cup rigid.

• Q: Can I use the same lids as double wall cups?

• A: Yes, our cups are manufactured with standardized rim diameters, ensuring cross-compatibility with the same corresponding size lids (e.g., 90mm lid fits 12oz, 16oz single and double wall).

• Q: Is there an option for a full wrap-around print?

• A: Yes, we offer full-wrap printing up to the rim and base fold, maximizing the branding area for your custom design.

• Q: How can I confirm the paper is food-grade?

• A: We provide current FDA and LFGB compliance certificates for all paperboard and lining materials used in production.

• Q: What is the process for sleeve compatibility testing?

• A: We can test and verify compatibility with your existing sleeve inventory or recommend a sleeve size that perfectly fits our cups.

• Q: Are plain white cups available in stock for immediate shipment?

• A: We often hold stock of common plain white sizes (8oz, 12oz) for faster turnaround on smaller orders.

• Q: What is the benefit of the PE lining in cold applications?

• A: PE lining creates a moisture barrier that prevents the outer paper from weakening due to condensation or contact with melting ice.

• Q: Can I print variable QR codes on the cups?

• A: Yes, we can accommodate variable data printing for promotions or tracking purposes, though this may impact the MOQ and lead time.

• Q: Do you offer bulk packaging options to reduce costs?

• A: Yes, bulk packaging options are available (e.g., larger master cartons) to reduce packaging costs per unit for large distributors.
