Frequently Asked Questions
-
Q: Are these cups truly compostable, and under what conditions?
A: Yes, our BioLiner cups are designed for industrial composting facilities. The PLA lining and paperboard will break down within 90–120 days in a properly managed composting environment (temperature >55°C, humidity >60%). They are not suitable for home composting or landfill disposal. We can provide third-party compostability certificates upon request for specific markets.
-
Q: Can I print my logo or artwork on the cups?
A: Absolutely. We offer custom printing using eco-friendly, water-based inks. Minimum order quantity (MOQ) for custom prints is typically 50,000 pieces per size, but please confirm with our sales team for exact requirements. You can also choose standard plain white or Kraft designs with no minimum.
-
Q: What sizes are available? Can I get a different volume?
A: Standard sizes are 8 oz, 12 oz, and 16 oz. We can produce other volumes (e.g., 4 oz, 10 oz, 20 oz) depending on tooling availability. Custom sizes usually require a new mold, which may involve additional setup costs and longer lead times. Please inquire for details.
-
Q: Do these cups come with lids? Are the lids also compostable?
A: Lids are sold separately. We offer matching compostable lids made from PLA or sugarcane bagasse (depending on size). The lids are designed for a tight, leak-resistant fit. Please contact us to order lids together with the cups.
-
Q: What is the shelf life of these cups?
A: When stored in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight, the cups have a shelf life of at least 2 years from the date of manufacture. The PLA coating may start to degrade if exposed to high humidity or temperatures above 50°C for extended periods.
-
Q: What is the minimum order quantity (MOQ) for standard cups?
A: For plain white or Kraft cups without printing, the MOQ is 10,000 pieces per size (one carton). For custom printed cups, the MOQ is 50,000 pieces per design and size. We can combine multiple sizes in one order to meet the MOQ — contact us for a tailored solution.
-
Q: Can I get samples before placing a bulk order?
A: Yes, we provide free samples (you pay shipping) for evaluation. Typically, we send 5–10 cups of each size you request. Please reach out to our sales team with your address and required sizes, and we will arrange the sample shipment within 3–5 business days.
