At Wuhan Century Kingxin Co., Ltd., a professional manufacturer established in 2018 with 51-100 skilled employees and an annual export value of US$2.5-5 Million, we are proud to introduce our EarthMug PLA Lined Plastic-Free Eco Disposable Cups. These cups are designed for businesses seeking sustainable, high-performance disposable packaging without compromising on quality. Made from premium paperboard and lined with a thin layer of PLA (polylactic acid) derived from renewable plant resources, they are completely plastic-free, biodegradable, and compostable in industrial facilities. Ideal for hot and cold beverages, our cups meet the growing demand for eco-friendly solutions in the foodservice industry.

Detailed Product Description
The EarthMug PLA Lined Cups are designed for modern cafés, restaurants, offices, events, and takeaway services that prioritize sustainability. Unlike conventional disposable cups that use a PE plastic layer, our PLA lining is derived from renewable plant starches and breaks down into non-toxic components under industrial composting conditions. This means your business can serve hot coffee or iced drinks without contributing to plastic pollution.
