What Is a Single Wall Paper Cup?

A single wall paper cup is made of one layer of food grade paper and is ideal for use as takeaway cups as they are easily disposable and recyclable. They can be used for both hot and cold beverages and are available at GMZ in a wide range of sizes from 1oz to 22oz to cater for a variety of drinks on offer in cafes and coffee shops.

The single wall paper cups are regularly used for hot drinks such as coffee, tea and hot chocolate as they are made to withstand the heat which is perfect for customers as the cup won’t get too hot when holding it. The cups can come with a sleeve to protect customers’ hands from the heat. These single wall paper cups can also be used for cold drinks such as soda, juice and more, making them the ideal all-round cups suitable for your beverage business.

The single wall paper cups are also compatible with a range of lids on offer in different sizes at GMZ including paper lids, PS lids and sugarcane lids which all have a small sip hole which are ideal to reduce spillages and keep the contents fresh and uncontaminated.

One of the best cups to use for your beverage business, these single wall coffee cups provide a range of incredible benefits to help make your business the best it can be.

1. Eco friendly, compostable and recyclable

The single wall paper cups are fully recyclable and compostable making them very eco friendly for your business. They also use less energy and fuel consumption to manufacture than plastic cups and they are easier to transport as they are lightweight and stackable which will effectively reduce your carbon footprint.

2. Customisation

Another popular benefit of single wall paper cups is that they are able to be customised to advertise your beverage business with your logo printed on the side. You should choose a vibrant design that stands out and catches people’s eye when customers leave your shop as they effectively promote your business with free marketing with your takeaway cups in hand.

7. Cost-effective

A major benefit for beverage businesses is that single wall paper cups are highly cost-effective. They are cheaper to make than plastic cups and are also available to buy in bulk at GMZ which is ideal for businesses on a budget.

Disadvantages of Single Wall Paper Cups

The single wall paper cups are hugely popular for many beverage businesses but they do have some disadvantages that you should be aware of prior to buying.

1. Less insulation

Compared to the double wall paper cups which have 2 layers of paper, the single wall paper cups are thinner and so do not insulate the contents of the drink. The cups can also be hot to touch if used for hot drinks so sleeves or ‘double cupping’ may be used to make the cup more comfortable for customers to hold.

2. Not as strong material

As the single wall paper cups are made with only one layer of food grade paper, the cups are not as strong and sturdy as double wall paper cups. However, double wall paper cups are more expensive to produce and so the right paper cups for your beverage business depends on your budget and the types of drinks you sell.

Are Single Wall Paper Cups Suitable for Your Business?

The single wall paper cups are an essential addition to many beverage businesses as they are suitable for both hot and cold drinks and offer easy access for customers to their drinks. They are transportable, recyclable and easily disposable, single use paper cups that are ideal for takeaway drinks. Here are some factors to consider before you choose single wall paper cups:

  • Your Budget
