Description
Bring your branding to every cold beverage with Custom Compostable Cold Drink Cups. Their clear PLA body lets the colors, layers, and ingredients of a drink remain visible while giving cafés, bubble tea shops, juice bars, restaurants, and event businesses space for a custom printed logo.
Made from plant-based PLA, these cups are designed for disposable cold drink service. Use them for iced coffee, cold brew, fruit tea, milk tea, smoothies, juice, lemonade, and other chilled beverages. The transparent finish works particularly well when the drink contains ice, fruit pieces, pearls, or colorful layers.
All four sizes have a 98 mm rim. Optional flat, sip, and dome lids let you select a presentation suited to the drink: flat lids for standard cold beverages, sip lids for convenient takeaway service, and dome lids when additional space above the rim is useful. Confirm lid fit with the final cup specification before ordering.
Personalize the outside of the cup with your logo, business name, or suitable artwork. The reference product specifies offset printing with eco-friendly ink and supports designs using up to four Pantone colors. Send your artwork and color references for review so the print layout and production details can be confirmed.
These cups are intended for single-use cold beverage service. They are not suitable for hot drinks or microwave heating. Store unused PLA cups in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight and prolonged light exposure to help maintain their appearance and performance.
The cups are described as compostable where suitable commercial composting facilities accept the material. Collection rules and processing conditions vary by location; do not assume acceptance in home composting. Quantity choices of 10,000, 20,000, or 30,000 cups support established beverage programs, promotions, and large branded orders.
