Buying Guide

    1. Identify Your Needs. Decide based on the type of drinks you serve and the sizes you require. Consider eco-friendly materials if sustainability aligns with your brand values.

Frequently Asked Questions


How do I choose the right size cup for my business?

Choosing the right cup size for your business involves a few key steps:

  1. Identify what your customers prefer. Coffee shops need small to large cups, while fast-food spots stick to a few standard sizes.
  2. Base cup sizes on your most popular beverages. Espresso needs smaller cups than smoothies or lattes.
  3. Select sizes that help manage ingredient costs and reduce waste.
  4. Smaller cups use less material, but offering reusable options can also align with eco-friendly practices.
  5. Make sure your brand is visible and fits well on the sizes chosen.
  6. Consider your space and how easy it is to handle and store different cup sizes.

Can I use the cups for alcoholic beverages?

Yes, you can use cups for alcoholic drinks. Choose glass or plastic based on your needs—glass for a classic look and plastic for convenience, especially outdoors. If you want eco-friendly options, there are biodegradable cups too. Just make sure to pick the right style, like wine glasses for wine, and check that the cups are safe for alcohol use.

Can the lids fit other cups?

To see if a lid fits a cup from a different set, check these details:

  • Size. The top opening of the cup and lid should match in size.
  • Shape. The cup's rim shape must match the lid's design.
  • Brand Guidelines. Some lids are made to fit only certain brands or specific cup models.
  • Check Compatibility. Look at the product's description or specifications for compatible cup sizes or models.
