The 500 ml cold cup, quantified for the importer

Certificates on file: the cup is produced under ISO 22000:2018 (certificate no IQR.016/FSMS.0067715, valid to 30 June 2027) and ISO 9001:2015; food business registration TR-34-K-094873 completes the set. PDFs: certificates page.

Shipping numbers: 1,000 cups per 405x405x560 mm carton, 11.25 kg gross, 0.092 m³. A 20' HQ carries 310 cartons — 310,000 cups — and a 40' HQ 750 cartons, 750,000 cups. Those figures are what the freight line on your offer is built from.

Order minimum: 60 cartons of the 16 oz cold cup, equal to 3 pallets of 20 cartons or 60,000 cups. Pick-up at the factory by your own vehicle or your forwarder makes 1 or 2 pallets possible, at a higher unit price. Pair it with other sizes in the same container, each size meeting its own 60 cartons.

Print: up to six flexo colours around the wall or plain white. File format and body layout are on the printing page; we position your artwork away from the side seam and send the layout for approval.

Lid: chosen by rim diameter. Six cups in the catalogue finish at 90 mm like this one, so one lid code covers all 6.

What we need for a price: quantity, number of colours, lids or none, destination port. The proforma then states HS code 4823.69 and the delivery term agreed with you.

Lid compatibility

The clear covers in this catalogue are drawn on 95 mm for the transparent PET cups and are not an alternative here.

Frequently asked questions

How much room does a 16 oz cold cup leave for ice?

Enough for a full scoop above the pour: the shell fills to 500 ml over 137 mm of height, with a 90 mm mouth and a 63 mm foot.

Height is the point of the size, since ice needs vertical space above the liquid and a shallow shell makes a full drink look half finished once the cubes settle. Larger cold volumes continue in the clear PET range at 600 and 650 ml.

Which cover fits the 16 oz cold paper cup?

The board part cut to 90 mm, which the 14 oz cold cup also takes.

The clear parts here are cut to a 95 mm opening for the transparent PET cups, so they are not an alternative on this shell. Cups and covers are normally quoted on one line so the pairing is confirmed in writing.

Is a 16 oz paper cup suitable for cold brew?

Yes, and cold brew programmes usually start at this size. A 500 ml shell leaves room for ice above the pour, which is what keeps the drink cold without diluting the cup below the serve line.

Polyethylene on the drinking face handles the chilled liquid, while the stock stays opaque so the whole wall remains available for your artwork.

Can the same artwork run on the hot and cold 16 oz cups?

Yes. The two articles are drawn on one shell and share a die-line, so a single approved layout serves both, and a counter selling a drink hot in winter and iced in summer needs only one setup.

Send the file as a vector naming both articles and the quantities against each, and they are priced on a single offer.
