Choosing the right size
A few rules of thumb our customers use when they spec a new menu.
- Lids: paper, PP, PET, PS and PLA lids are available across most cups and bowls; bagasse lids are available for cups.
- Hot drinks: single wall, double wall or ripple wall all work — the double and ripple walls add insulation and keep hands comfortable.
- Cold drinks: choose dual poly-coated single wall cups, engineered for anti-condensation performance.
- Soups and stews: choose a soup bowl with a moisture-resistant dual coating.
- Salads and larger portions: choose a salad bowl or a bagasse bowl.
- Banquets and portion control: choose bagasse compartment plates (2 or 3 compartments) or large 9"–10" plates.
- Bags, lids and box options: all available with custom printing — tell us your requirement and we will quote it.
Frequently asked questions
How do I convert oz to ml?
One fluid ounce is approximately 29.6 ml. The conversion table above is rounded to the figures normally used in packaging catalogues, which is how cup and bowl capacities are usually specified.
Are lids interchangeable between sizes?
Lids are matched by rim diameter, so cups and bowls that share the same rim can use the same lid type. Paper, PP, PET, PS and PLA lids are available across most of the range, and bagasse lids are available for cups.
Can you produce custom sizes?
Yes. We support OEM sizes and custom printing. Send us your target capacity and rim diameter through the form below and we will confirm tooling, minimum order quantity and lead time.
Are all sizes food-contact compliant and PFAS-free?
Yes. Every range is manufactured without PFAS coatings, and the food-contact materials meet FDA requirements.
