Sustainable 16 oz Hot Cups
These 16 oz compostable paper hot cups come in a 1000-count carton and are designed for hotels, offices, cafes, campuses and restaurants. A plant-based PLA moisture barrier provides leak resistance for hot beverages. Each cup displays a scannable QR code that highlights the ProPlanet sustainability commitment. They pair with snap tight lids to simplify takeout and delivery service.
Upgrade from Standard Paper Cups
The PLA lining replaces conventional polyethylene coatings, reducing reliance on fossil-based materials while maintaining heat performance. Switching is worth it when a business needs compostable drinkware that meets commercial composting standards and wants a visible sustainability signal for customers. The QR code adds an interactive layer that ordinary cups lack.
Suits High-Volume Food Service
This carton suits operations serving large daily volumes of hot drinks where compostable packaging is required or preferred. Buyers who need cold cups, smaller case quantities or a different wall construction should look elsewhere. Facilities without access to commercial composting infrastructure may not realise the full environmental benefit.

Questions about this item
How much shelf space does a 1000-carton of 16 oz cups require?
A single carton holds 1000 cups; measure your shelf depth and height against the carton dimensions before ordering.
What is the correct way to seat the snap-tight lid so the PLA moisture barrier stays leak-resistant?
Align the lid tabs with the cup rim, press firmly around the full circumference until each tab clicks, then verify no gaps remain.
When should the compostable cups be replaced if stored in a warm breakroom?
Use within the manufacturer shelf-life and rotate stock first-in-first-out; discard any cups that show warping, odour or barrier separation.
