Loose wraps slide down cups and spill hot drinks. Our engineers cut 100% post-consumer recycled coffee sleeves printed with soy inks to match the exact 5.5° to 7.5° wall angle of your cups. This custom dieline curve grips the middle of the cup with 360-degree tension.
We seal our heat-blocking personalized disposable coffee cup sleeves for 8 oz to 24 oz cups with food-safe plant starch glue:
