A ripple paper cup, also known as a ripple wall cup or insulated paper cup, is a type of disposable cup commonly used for hot beverages like coffee, tea, or hot chocolate. It features a unique ripple design on the outside that creates an air gap between the two layers of paper, providing insulation and making the cup comfortable to hold.
The purpose of the ripple paper is to provide insulation and enhance the thermal properties of the cup. The ripples create an air gap between the layers, which helps to better insulate hot and cold beverages, keeping them at their desired temperature for a longer time. This makes ripple cups suitable for serving hot drinks like coffee, tea, or hot chocolate.
Yes, ripple cups are safe to use. The corrugated layer in their design enhances insulation and reduces the risk of burns or discomfort when holding hot beverages. GMZ, as a reputable paper cups manufacturer, uses high-quality food-grade paper in their ripple cups.

Most Kraft ripple cups are recyclable. However, not all recycling facilities accept them due to the presence of the plastic lining used to make the cups leak-proof. It's best to check with your local recycling guidelines to determine if they can be recycled in your area.
While ripple cups are not biodegradable in their entirety due to the plastic lining, some versions may have a biodegradable or compostable lining made from materials like plant-based PLA (polylactic acid). These cups offer a more eco-friendly alternative, as they can break down under specific conditions. It's important to check the specifications of the specific cup to ensure its biodegradability.
