PET Cups & Lids

What are PET Cups Lids made of?

PET Cups Lids are made from Polyethylene Terephthalate (PET), a strong and lightweight plastic material.
This material is known for its excellent clarity, making it ideal for clear cup lids.
It is also BPA-free and fully recyclable, aligning with eco-friendly and sustainable packaging practices.


Are PET cup lids recyclable?

Yes, PET cup lids are 100% recyclable.
They are made from the same PET plastic commonly used in water bottles and food containers.
Disposing of PET lids in proper recycling bins helps reduce environmental waste and supports the circular economy.


What types of PET cup lids are available?

There are several types of PET cup lids available depending on your beverage or packaging needs.
Common styles include PET dome lids (with or without holes), flat lids, sip-through lids, and straw slot lids.
These clear plastic lids offer versatility for cold drinks, smoothies, iced coffee, and even desserts like parfaits or fruit cups.

What is the difference between dome lids and flat lids?

Dome lids are raised and allow extra space for whipped cream or toppings, making them ideal for specialty drinks or dessert cups.
Flat lids, on the other hand, sit flush with the cup rim and are often used for standard beverages like iced tea or soda.
Both types maintain a secure fit and enhance presentation with crystal-clear visibility.


Are PET lids suitable for hot drinks?

No, PET lids are generally designed for cold beverages only.
High temperatures may deform the plastic or compromise its structural integrity.
For hot drinks, it's recommended to use PP or PS lids, which are engineered to withstand higher heat levels.


What sizes do PET cup lids come in?

PET cup lids are manufactured to fit standard cup diameters such as 78mm, 90mm, and 98mm.
These sizes correspond to typical plastic cup capacities like 12 oz, 16 oz, 20 oz, and 24 oz.
Custom PET lids can also be produced to accommodate unique packaging requirements or branding specifications.


Can PET cup lids be customized with logos or embossing?

Yes, PET plastic lids can be customized with company logos, brand messages, or embossing for a premium look.
Custom embossing enhances brand visibility while maintaining the lid’s clarity and durability.
It's a popular option for cafes, juice bars, and food service businesses aiming to reinforce their brand identity.


Are PET lids safe for food and beverage contact?

Absolutely. PET is FDA-approved for food-grade packaging.
PET lids are non-toxic, odorless, and do not alter the taste of beverages.
They provide a sanitary, leak-resistant seal for cold drink applications, making them a trusted option in the foodservice industry.


How are PET cup lids packaged for bulk orders?

PET cup lids are typically packed in corrugated boxes or shrink-wrapped sleeves to ensure protection during transport.
Bulk PET lids may also be nested for efficient storage and space-saving in distribution.
Some suppliers offer palletized shipments for large-scale foodservice or distributor clients.


What industries commonly use PET cup lids?

PET cup lids are widely used across industries such as fast food, coffee chains, beverage packaging, dessert shops, and catering.
They’re also essential in takeout and delivery services due to their leak-proof design and visual appeal.
Their compatibility with various cup types makes them a universal solution for cold drink packaging.
