Product Features & Technical Specifications
Heavyweight Construction: Extra-thick paper wall (typically 280-350 gsm) prevents heat transfer, keeping hands comfortable while maintaining drink temperature.
Ripple Texture Design: The distinctive corrugated surface not only enhances grip but also adds structural strength, reducing the risk of cup collapse.
Leak-Proof Performance: Precision-rolled rims and tight-seal bottom provide excellent liquid containment, even during long holding periods.
Eco-Friendly Options: Available with PLA (biodegradable) lining or standard PE lining to suit different environmental requirements.
Custom Printing: High-definition offset or flexographic printing up to 360-degree coverage, using food-grade water-based inks.
Heat Retention: The combination of heavyweight paper and ripple air pockets effectively insulates hot contents, reducing heat loss by up to 20% compared to standard cups.

Why Choose SturdyWave Heavyweight Cups?
The ripple design is more than aesthetic – it acts as a natural insulator, allowing your customers to enjoy their hot drinks without burning fingers. Each cup is rigorously tested for stacking strength (no jamming), squeeze resistance (no deformation under moderate pressure), and temperature tolerance (safe for liquids up to 95°C / 203°F). This product is especially favored by coffee chains and cafes that demand consistency and reliability.
Customization Services: We offer free design assistance for your brand logo. Choose from matte or glossy finish, spot UV, or embossing to elevate your cup's appearance. Minimum order quantities are flexible for trial orders (e.g., 50,000 pcs) and scale-friendly for large volumes. Our production capacity exceeds 5 million cups per month, ensuring timely delivery.
