Best for
- Iced-tea chains running 17 oz default service where every drink colour (peach, mango, taro) needs to read clean through the wall.
- Premium juice operators doing fresh-press in front of customers — clear PP shows pulp settling without distortion.
- Australian café chains running clean-look menu boards where matte and printed cups would break the visual identity.
Material rationale
PP food-grade at 14.7 g across a 135 mm rim is the operational sweet spot — heavy enough to resist cup-sealer film tension without inward buckle, light enough to keep pricing competitive against commodity SKUs. Crystal clarity comes from controlled-cooling injection moulding (controls crystallinity in the polymer) rather than from PET — so the cup keeps PP's hot-pour tolerance (100 °C continuous) instead of PET's 70 °C ceiling. Carton 48 × 40 × 35 cm sits at 24 cartons per Euro pallet for sea freight.
