Cold Cups Disposable

Buyer’s Guide to Choosing Disposable Cold Cups

Disposable cold cups are suitable for serving water, juice, smoothies, slushies and other chilled drinks in cafés, food trucks, events, offices and takeaway businesses. Insinc’s range includes clear PLA cups, compostable paper cups, water cups and small sampling or sauce cups.

Sizes range from 30ml portion cups to 640ml drink cups, with selected products available in smaller packs for occasional use or bulk cartons of up to 3,000 cups.

Clear PLA or Paper Cold Cups?

Clear PLA cups display colourful drinks, layered smoothies and slushies, making them useful for takeaway beverage service. Available sizes include slim 150ml to 280ml cups and standard cups from approximately 300ml to 630ml.

Paper cold cups offer an alternative for businesses that do not require transparent packaging. The listed Vegware paper cups are available in 250ml, 340ml, 450ml and 640ml sizes and are described as compostable. Disposal still depends on the product’s certification and acceptance by a suitable composting facility.

Which Lids Fit Disposable Cold Cups?

Cold cup lids are not universally interchangeable. Check the cup’s rim diameter and product range before ordering, particularly when choosing between 71mm, 76mm, 80mm and 96mm lids.

Flat lids with straw slots suit standard cold drinks, while dome lids provide additional space for foam, whipped toppings or filled smoothies. No-hole lids and cup inserts are also available for selected 96mm cups. Always confirm compatibility between the cup, lid and insert.
