Eco-Friendly Custom Cardboard Coffee Cups That Make a Statement

In an era where sustainability meets style, custom cardboard coffee cups are revolutionizing disposable drinkware. At [Your Brand], we merge eco-conscious innovation with vibrant customization, offering compostable cups that proudly showcase your brand, art, or message – without sacrificing the planet. Ideal for cafes, events, offices, and eco-aware brands, our cups turn everyday coffee runs into powerful statements of responsibility.


Why Choose Cardboard? The Green Revolution in Drinkware

Traditional disposable cups contribute to 18 billion units of plastic-lined waste yearly (EPA 2025). Our cardboard cups solve this crisis:

  • 🌱 100% Plant-Based: Made from FSC-certified bamboo & recycled paper pulp.

  • ♻️ Industrial Compostable: Breaks down in 90 days (BPI Certified).

  • 🚫 Plastic-Free Lining: Water-based PLA coating from cornstarch (not petroleum).

  • 📉 Carbon Negative: Production uses 65% less energy than plastic alternatives.

The normal bleed size for most printed text is 0.125 inches.
