Coffee Cup
Branded drinkware for hot beverages, from 8-22oz disposable paper cups and kraft carriers to stainless vacuum travel mugs and lidded ceramic mugs.
This category covers the whole hot drinks serve: disposable paper cups from 8-22oz for hot drinks, kraft paper cup holders and trays with a handle for takeaway orders, 316L stainless steel vacuum travel mugs, and 500ml ceramic mugs with a wooden lid. Disposable cups are flexo or offset printed on the flat blank before being rolled, seamed and rimmed, so the artwork must allow for the overlap seam. Reusable mugs are decorated by a different process entirely and are bought in far smaller quantities at a far higher unit price. The buyer usually needs both: a high-volume disposable line for daily service and a small run of reusables for retail or gifting.

What This Solves and Who Buys It
Problems It Solves
- Cup sizes ordered without checking they fit the existing lids and the espresso machine's spouts.
- Artwork running across the cup seam, so the logo is split or overlapped on the finished cup.
- Cafes buying plain cups and losing the branding opportunity on every takeaway order that leaves the door.
- Takeaway orders of two or more drinks handed over without a carrier, leading to spills and complaints.
- Disposable and reusable drinkware sourced from different suppliers, so the brand colour differs between them.
Who Buys It

- Multi-site coffee chains standardising 8-22oz cups and carriers across stores.
- Event caterers and festival operators needing branded cups for a fixed date.

Decisions to Make Before You Order
Confirm Sizes Against Your Lids and Machine
Cups run 8-22oz for hot drinks. Check the rim diameter against the lids you already stock before ordering, because a cup that does not take your lids is unusable at volume.
Keep Key Artwork Away From the Seam
A paper cup is rolled from a flat blank with an overlap seam. Logos placed across the seam get distorted, so we position the artwork on the blank to keep the mark clean.
Buy the Carrier With the Cup
A kraft paper holder or tray with a handle turns a two-drink order into something a customer can carry. Ordering it on the same job keeps the board colour and print matching.
Split the Order Between Disposable and Reusable
Disposables are a volume consumable ordered in bulk; travel mugs and ceramic mugs are a low-volume retail or gift item. Quote them together but plan the quantities separately.
Coffee Cup Questions
What cup sizes do you produce?
Disposable hot drink cups run 8-22oz. Confirm which sizes your lids already fit, and we will match the rim so you are not replacing your lid stock alongside the cups.
Can you print the cup carrier to match the cups?
Yes. The kraft paper cup holder with handle can be printed and colour matched to the cups on the same order, which is difficult when they come from separate suppliers.
Are the travel mugs stainless steel?
The custom travel mugs are 316L stainless steel vacuum mugs, which is a more corrosion-resistant grade than the 304 commonly used in promotional drinkware.
Is there a minimum order for printed coffee cups?
Minimums vary by product; some items have no MOQ and others run 500-1000 pcs. Disposable cups are typically the higher minimum because they print on a roll-fed process.
How long do printed cups take to produce?
Regular commercial print runs 4-5 working days and large quantity orders 10-12 working days, before shipping. For a cafe, bulk cup orders are worth planning against your usage rate.
