PLA coated paper cups for hot drinks and it's a composable and eco-friendly paper cup

PLA Coated Paper Hot Cups

Most paper cups are lined with PE plastic to prevent them from soaking through when holding liquids. Our PLA-coated paper cups, however, use plant-based materials to replace the traditional plastic lining, so they’re completely compostable and pose no harm to the environment.

100% compostable
DIN EN13432 certified for compostability
FCM-Approved for food contact
Free from PFAS and non-toxic
Custom printing in up to 8 colors on the outer layer
According to the needs, we can print the batch code on the bottom of the cup to easily trace the cup back through the manufacturing process.

MOQ for custom printing: 50,000PCs.

Go Green with PLA Coated Paper Cups!

Are you looking for a sustainable packaging solution? GMZ’s PLA coated paper cups are the answer. Unlike your traditional disposable cups with plastic linings, our composable paper cups use a unique lining made from PLA (polylactic acid) – a bioplastic made from renewable resources like corn starch. This green innovation not only makes our cups fully compostable but also aligns with the growing demand for environmentally responsible products.

Sustainable & Compostable Cups

By choosing our PLA coated paper cups, you’re making a real difference. Traditional cups with polyethylene (PE) linings often end up in landfills and oceans for centuries. But our PLA-based cups offer a guilt-free alternative. They decompose in commercial composting facilities within 3-6 months, leaving behind nutrient-rich soil. It’s a win-win for businesses eager to reduce their carbon footprint and attract eco-aware customers.

Going green doesn’t mean sacrificing quality. Our PLA coated paper cups are proof that you can be eco-friendly and still offer top-notch performance. They work excellently in serving your freshly pour coffee, tea or other hot brew by being:

Soak-Proof

The PLA bioplastic lining makes our cups robust and intact against hot liquids. It provides a sturdy moisture barrier that ensures durability and leak resistance throughout use.

Heat Resistant

Our PLA lined paper cups can handle temperatures up to 220° Fahrenheit, making them perfect for a variety of hot beverages. They maintain the heat without making the cup uncomfortable to hold.

Safe and Dependable

We use top-rated, food-grade paper that has been fully tested for FCM and is free from any toxic chemicals. So, you trust our PLA coated paper cups to be safe and reliable for all your hot drink needs.

Versatile & Custom Disposable Cups

We offer PLA-coated disposable coffee cups in a range of sizes to cater to all your beverage offerings – from 4oz small espressos to 22oz large hot chocolates. We make sure all your menu items will find their perfect home with our eco-friendly paper cups.
