How to choose the right Disposable Cups

• Match cup size to your menu, from 4oz espresso and tasters up to 16oz large coffees, teas and soups.
• Choose ripple or double wall cups for hot drinks where extra insulation and comfortable grip are essential.
• Use single wall paper or plastic cups for cold drinks, water stations and lower temperature service.
• Check lid compatibility by cup capacity and diameter (80mm or 90mm) to ensure a secure, leak resistant fit.
• Consider recyclable or compostable options if sustainability and waste reduction are priorities for your business.
• Estimate daily drink volumes so you can select pack sizes that balance storage space with reliable availability.

Care and maintenance

• Store disposable cups and lids in a clean, dry area away from heat sources to prevent warping or contamination.
• Keep sleeves sealed until needed and rotate stock using a first in, first out system to maintain product quality.
• Protect cups from splashes, grease and strong odours in the kitchen or bar to preserve hygiene and presentation.
• Train staff to match the correct lid to each cup size to avoid leaks and customer complaints.
• Provide clearly labelled waste and recycling bins so customers can dispose of cups and lids responsibly.
• Regularly review usage and wastage levels to adjust ordering and minimise unnecessary environmental impact.
