PE/PS plastic, CPLA and bagasse fibre lids each handle heat, leaks, PPT and end-of-life very differently. A UK cafe operator's deep dive on the lid you put on every cup.
Construction types, UK sizes, materials, lid rims, sleeves, custom branding, cost benchmarks and a recommendation matrix. Everything a UK cafe operator needs to spec coffee cups in 2026.
We've been very happy with these lids. They fit securely, are sturdy, and work perfectly with our salad bowls. Great quality product and reliable for takeaway and delivery orders. Will definitely purchase again.
These are aesthetically ugly with brown stains, I get it probably recycled card pulp and it does the job of holding cups but I’m disappointed. Compared the 4 cup holders ones you sell, those are much nicer with cleaner edges and surfaces. I recommend you use the same supplier as the 4 cup design.
