Style 4 Clear PET Cup Lids 90/93/95/98mm

Style 4 Clear PET Cup Lids for Cold Drinks

HSQY Style 4 clear PET cup lids are designed for cold beverage cups used for iced coffee, smoothies, juice, cold brew, milk tea, soft drinks, milkshakes and other takeaway beverages.

The current Style 4 product-level specification lists lid diameters of 90mm, 93mm, 95mm and 98mm. These dimensions are more important for cup-and-lid matching than beverage capacity alone because two cups with the same nominal ounce capacity can use different rim diameters and locking profiles.

Clear PET provides high visibility for beverage presentation, while the lid is designed to engage with a compatible cup rim and help reduce accidental spills during normal takeaway handling. Exact fit should always be verified using the customer's cup drawing or physical cup sample.

Style 4 is currently listed with an MOQ of 30,000 pieces. Custom packing, selected lid configurations and OEM requirements can be discussed for foodservice distributors, beverage brands, coffee chains and packaging wholesalers.

Style 4 PET Cup Lid Specifications

Important: HSQY's current product-level data lists 90mm, 93mm, 95mm and 98mm diameters with an MOQ of 30,000 pieces. Older detail content lists 12oz, 16oz, 20oz and 24oz cup capacities together with an MOQ of 5,000 pieces. The exact Style 4 lid drawing and current MOQ should be confirmed before ordering.

How to Match a PET Lid to a Cold Drink Cup

The most important purchasing parameter for a cold-cup lid is the cup rim, not the nominal beverage capacity.

For example, two different 16 oz PET cups may use different rim diameters or bead profiles. A lid marked for a 16 oz cup will not necessarily fit every 16 oz cup produced by another manufacturer.

When replacing an existing supplier, provide HSQY with the cup outside rim diameter, cup drawing, rim cross-section or physical sample. Physical fit testing is recommended before commercial orders.

1. Confirm Cup Rim Diameter

Measure the actual outside diameter across the cup rim. Style 4 currently includes 90mm, 93mm, 95mm and 98mm lid series.

2. Confirm Rim and Locking Profile

Matching diameter alone may not guarantee fit. The lid locking groove must engage correctly with the cup's rolled rim or bead profile.

3. Select Flat or Dome Profile

Standard drinks can use lower-profile lids, while beverages and desserts with whipped cream, fruit, foam or other toppings may require additional dome headspace.

4. Select the Opening Style

Depending on the exact product configuration, cold-cup lids can use straw slots, round holes, sip openings or closed tops. Confirm the required opening size against the straw, spoon or direct-drinking application.

5. Test the Complete Cup-and-Lid System

Test closing force, retention, removal force, tilt resistance, stacking and delivery performance using the actual beverage cup before approving bulk production.

Why Cup Diameter Matters More Than Cup Capacity

Flat PET Lids vs Dome PET Lids

Clear PET for Cold Beverage Packaging

Clear PET is widely used for cold beverage cups and lids because it provides high transparency and useful rigidity for foodservice packaging.

Clear lids help baristas, restaurant staff and customers identify the drink without removing the lid. They are particularly useful for colorful beverages, smoothies and drinks with visible toppings.

The current Style 4 source lists a temperature range from approximately -26°C to +66°C. This should be treated as a product reference rather than a universal PET limit. Confirm actual cup-and-lid performance at the intended beverage and storage temperatures.

Applications of Style 4 PET Cup Lids

Iced Coffee and Cold Brew

Clear PET lids can be matched with transparent cold cups for iced coffee, cold brew and milk-based coffee beverages where product visibility and secure takeaway handling are important.

Smoothies and Milkshakes

Dome-style lids can provide additional space for thick smoothies, whipped cream or toppings where the exact Style 4 profile is available and matched to the cup.

Juice and Soft Drinks

Flat or opening-style PET lids can support takeaway juice, soda, lemonade and other cold beverages when the lid diameter and locking profile match the selected cup.

Bubble Tea and Milk Tea

For beverages requiring wide straws, confirm the lid opening dimensions against the selected straw diameter rather than assuming a standard straw slot will fit.

Takeaway Desserts and Chilled Foods

Selected PET cup-and-lid systems can also be used for parfaits, yogurt, fruit, chilled desserts and similar foodservice products where the corresponding cup is appropriate.

Snap-Fit Closure and Spill Resistance

A properly matched snap-fit PET lid is designed to engage with the cup rim and remain attached during normal serving and takeaway handling.

However, “leak-proof” should not be treated as a universal guarantee. Spill and leakage performance depend on the cup-and-lid fit, beverage viscosity, filling level, straw opening, lid orientation, vibration, squeezing and whether the package is transported upright.

Beverage-delivery projects should test filled cups under realistic transport conditions before commercial approval.

PET Cup Lid Fit Testing

PET Cup Lid Temperature and Use Conditions

Style 4 is primarily positioned as a cold beverage lid. The current source lists a reference temperature range of approximately -26°C to +66°C.

PET cold-cup lids should not automatically be promoted for hot coffee, boiling beverages, oven use or microwave reheating. High temperatures can change lid stiffness and cup-fit performance.

If the beverage is filled above normal chilled or ambient conditions, provide the maximum filling temperature and hold time so the specific cup-and-lid system can be evaluated.

Food-Contact Documentation

The existing product content references SGS, ISO 9001:2008 and FDA-related compliance. Buyers should request current documentation applicable to the exact PET material and finished Style 4 lid being ordered.

ISO quality-management certification does not by itself establish food-contact compliance. Product-specific food-contact declarations, migration information and destination-market requirements should be reviewed separately.

If compliance documentation is required, provide the destination country, beverage type, contact temperature and intended duration of use when requesting a quotation.

PET Cup Lid Recycling Considerations

PET is commonly identified with resin identification code #1 and is widely used in beverage packaging. However, whether small PET cup lids are actually collected and recycled depends on local collection rules, sorting technology, lid size and regional recycling infrastructure.

For this reason, the product should not be described as universally “100% recyclable” in every market. Recycling claims should reflect the collection and processing system in the destination region.

Packaging and Logistics Information

Cup lids are lightweight but relatively bulky, so carton configuration and container utilization can have a significant effect on landed cost for wholesale orders.

The existing Style 4 page does not provide confirmed pieces per sleeve, sleeves per carton, carton dimensions, carton CBM, gross weight or pallet loading. These figures should be confirmed for each diameter because 90mm and 98mm lids may use different packing configurations.

For distributor and container-volume quotations, request the complete logistics specification including pieces per carton, carton dimensions, carton gross weight, cartons per pallet and estimated 20GP or 40HQ loading quantity.

Frequently Asked Questions About Style 4 PET Cup Lids

What diameters are available for Style 4 PET cup lids?

The current product-level specification lists 90mm, 93mm, 95mm and 98mm Style 4 lid diameters.

Do these lids fit 12 oz, 16 oz, 20 oz and 24 oz cups?

Older Style 4 content references those cup capacities, but cup capacity alone cannot guarantee compatibility. Match the lid using the exact cup rim diameter and locking profile.

Will a 98mm PET lid fit every 98mm cup?

Not necessarily. Nominal diameter is only one compatibility parameter. Rim shape, bead geometry and lid locking groove must also match, so sample testing is recommended.

What material are Style 4 lids made from?

Style 4 lids are made from clear polyethylene terephthalate, commonly abbreviated as PET.

Are flat and dome lids available?

The current product content references different round lid configurations including dome and opening-style designs. Confirm the exact Style 4 mold and profile required when requesting a quotation.

What is the difference between a flat lid and a dome lid?

Flat lids have a lower profile and are suitable for standard cold drinks, while dome lids provide additional vertical space for whipped cream, foam, fruit or other toppings.

Are straw-slot lids available?

Opening options depend on the exact mold. Provide the required straw diameter and opening type so HSQY can confirm the appropriate lid configuration.

Are Style 4 PET lids leak-proof?

A correctly matched snap-fit lid is designed to help reduce spills, but leakage performance depends on cup compatibility, beverage type, opening design and transport conditions. Filled-package testing is recommended before making a leak-proof claim.

What temperature range is listed for Style 4 lids?

The current detailed product content lists approximately -20°F / -26°C to 150°F / 66°C. Confirm the exact grade and application before using these values as operating limits.

Can PET lids be used for hot drinks?

Style 4 is primarily intended for cold beverage packaging. Hot-drink applications should use a lid material and design validated for the required filling and serving temperatures.

Can Style 4 lids be frozen?

The current source lists a low-temperature reference down to approximately -26°C, but freezer applications should be tested because lid retention and impact behavior depend on the complete cup-and-lid system.

Are PET cup lids recyclable?

PET is a recyclable polymer where appropriate collection and processing systems exist. Actual acceptance of small cup lids varies by local recycling program, so recyclability should be assessed in the destination market.

Are Style 4 lids food-contact compliant?

The existing page references food-contact-related documentation, but buyers should request current product-specific declarations and test documents for the exact lid and destination market.

What is the MOQ?

The current Style 4 product-level specification lists an MOQ of 30,000 pieces. Older detail content lists 5,000 pieces, so the current sales quotation should be used as the final MOQ.

Can I send my existing cup for lid matching?

Yes. Sending a physical cup sample or detailed rim drawing is one of the most reliable ways to verify lid compatibility before bulk production.

What information is required for a quotation?

Provide lid diameter, cup rim dimensions, cup sample or drawing, cup capacity, lid profile, opening type, beverage application, order quantity, packing requirement and destination country.
