Eco-Friendly Paper Lids for Your Hot Beverage Service

Whether you’re serving coffee, tea, or other hot drinks to go, a reliable lid is essential. Our 100% plastic-free paper pulp lids are made from molded plant fiber — fully biodegradable, recyclable, and safe for food contact. Designed to fit tightly on 8oz to 22oz paper cups, they help prevent spills while supporting your commitment to sustainability. Available in Flat and Flip styles, these lids are ideal for cafes, takeaway outlets, and environmentally conscious brands.

What Makes Our Paper Lids Different

Our paper lids are made from 100% molded fiber, with no plastic, no PE, and no PLA coating. Instead of synthetic coatings, we use a dense, heat-pressed fiber structure that naturally resists leaks and performs well with hot drinks. You can choose from two functional lid styles:

Flat Lids

Simple and cost-efficient, ideal for fast-paced service.

Flip Lids

With a hinged sip tab for added convenience and spill control.

Certified for Food Safety and Quality

All our paper lids are made from food-grade molded fiber, with no plastic or chemical coating. We are a BRC-certified packaging manufacturer, and our products comply with FCM (Food Contact Materials) standards. From raw material to final product, we follow strict quality controls to ensure safe, sustainable, and reliable lids for your business.

The Benefits for Your Business

Our paper lids aren’t just about covering a cup — they’re designed to support real-world foodservice operations. Whether you’re running a busy coffee shop, a fast-paced takeaway counter, or a high-traffic kiosk, our molded fiber lids help you serve hot drinks quickly, cleanly, and sustainably.

Available in two functional styles, flat lids offer fast application for high-volume service, while flip lids provide a better sipping experience with added spill control, ideal for delivery or customers on the go. Both styles feature a secure press-fit design that seals tightly to prevent leaks and retain heat. With 80mm and 90mm options, our lids fit standard 8oz to 22oz paper cups.

FAQs About Paper Lids

What are your paper lids made of?

Our paper pulp lids are made from molded plant fiber with no plastic or chemical coating. They are 100% compostable, recyclable, and food-safe.

Are these lids safe for hot drinks?

Yes. These paper lids are specifically designed for hot beverages like coffee and tea. They resist heat well and provide a secure, leak-resistant seal during use.

What cup sizes do your paper lids fit?

Our paper lids come in two sizes: 80mm (fits 8oz paper cups) and 90mm (fits 12oz to 22oz paper cups). These are the most common sizes for takeaway cups. If you're unsure which size fits your cups, feel free to contact us at info@gmz-trade.com.

How to store paper lids properly?

Store them in a cool, dry, and well-ventilated area, away from moisture and direct sunlight. Handle with clean, dry hands to avoid deformation before use.

Are your paper lids suitable for cold drinks?

Our molded paper lids are primarily designed for hot beverages. While they may temporarily cover cold drinks, condensation may weaken the lid over time. For cold beverages, we recommend using our PET plastic lids for better durability and moisture resistance.

Do your paper lids contain any coating or plastic?

No. Our paper pulp lids are 100% plastic-free and coating-free. They contain no PE, no PLA, and no synthetic lining, making them fully compostable and safe for food contact.

What are the benefits of using paper lids instead of plastic lids on disposable cups?

Using our paper lids with paper cups creates a fully recyclable and compostable packaging solution. Unlike plastic PET lids, which must be separated and sorted differently, paper lids match the cup material, making disposal simpler and more eco-friendly. They also reduce plastic waste, support plastic-free initiatives, and enhance your brand’s commitment to sustainability.
