Plastic Cups
From $47.30 for 1000 cups!
Our clear plastic cups are strong, reliable & will guarantee superior presentation of your beverage, yogurt or fruit salad. The cups have been expertly designed to prevent buckling or caving when they are full, which largely eliminates the risk of spillages. Our plastic cups are available with a range of flat straw-slotted or dome plastic lids. Both our plastic cups & plastic lids are fully recyclable.
The most common use for a plastic cup is beverage service, however it is being used more frequently to serve yogurts, fruit salad & muesli/ dried fruits. It follows that our disposable cups are popular in juice bars, cafes, pubs, clubs & health bars.
We carry two types of plastic cups to cater for different budges & tastes. Both our PP (Polypropylene) & our PET (Polyethylene terephthalate) plastic cups are strong, tough & resistant to heat, & are made from premium food-grade material.
Clear Plastic Cup (PET)
PET cups are perfectly transparent & will enhance the presentation of your beverage or food item. A PET & PP plastic cup are quite similar to look at, however, the former is slightly heavier & more rigid.
Clear Plastic Cup (PP)
On the other hand, a PP plastic cup has a rubbery feel, & is softer & more flexible. This cup is largely transparent, & ideal for the price conscious consumer. Other products commonly used in the food packaging industry that are made from PP include plastic takeaway containers.

White Plastic Cup
White plastic cups are more suitable for use in water cooler dispensers, at parties, or in cafes where water is self-served. Plastic drinking cups have a rolled rim for enhanced comfort & are tapered to facilitate easy stacking & to reduce storage space required. White plastic cups are compatible with most cup dispensers, & are the most economical & reliable option where small serves are required.
