Compostable Paper Cups
Paper cup data is available for a compostability-focused quote review, but the published specifications do not establish compostability of the cup stock. Start with the documented single-wall and double-wall dimensions and case quantities, then request material confirmation before describing a cup as compostable in published copy.

Material confirmation comes first
The available specifications verify cup dimensions, constructions, and case quantities, but they do not establish compostability of the cup stock.
Treat compostability as a material question requiring confirmation before the final specification or marketing language is approved. Do not assume a certification or compostable claim from the cup format alone.
Documented cup options
The table provides single-wall and double-wall formats with their dimensions and case quantities. Use these rows to frame a quote while keeping material status open.
The double-wall entries include documented paper builds where available. Any material statement beyond the listed data should be confirmed for the selected job.
Lid terminology
PLA appears in the published specifications only as the exact lid type name PLA edge hole lid. That lid reference does not verify compostability of the cup stock.
Other documented lid types can be discussed separately. Ask a specialist to confirm the requested lid, diameter, and material scope rather than assuming a match.
Proofing and quote request
Free design assistance supports artwork preparation, and a digital proof is approved before production. Review all material wording and product details before approval.
This page supports a quote request only, with a minimum order quantity of 50 and free US shipping. Production runs from about 7 business days, depending on the product, quantity, and finishing, plus 2 to 5 business days for delivery.

Frequently asked questions
Are these cups certified compostable?
The available specifications do not establish compostability of the cup stock, so no compostable certification claim should be made from the listed cup data. Request material confirmation for the selected format before approving product language, artwork, or a final specification.
Does PLA apply to the cup material?
No. PLA appears in the published specifications only as the exact lid type PLA edge hole lid. It does not verify that the cup stock is PLA or compostable. Keep the lid reference separate from the cup material review and ask for confirmation before making any material claim.
Which cup formats can be reviewed?
The page can review documented single-wall and double-wall formats, including the capacities and dimensions shown in the table. The case quantities and paper builds are included where published. Material status remains subject to confirmation for the selected cup and requested application.
Can HPP help with artwork while material is reviewed?
Yes. Free design assistance can support artwork preparation while the material question is being reviewed. A digital proof is approved before production, so the material wording, product description, selected format, and finishing details should all be checked before approval. Free US shipping is included.
How do I request a material-confirmation quote?
Submit a quote request with the desired cup capacity, construction, artwork, and any compostability requirement. The minimum order quantity is 50. Ask for written confirmation of the cup material before using compostable language. Call (866) 225-2112 for a specialist review.
