| Storage Guide |
Because PLA is a heat-sensitive plant material, basic storage care ensures maximum performance:
- Keep Cool & Dry: Store cases below 40°C in a dry area away from direct ambient kitchen steam tunnels or heat outlets.
- Avoid Direct Heat & Sun: Keep clear of direct sunlight, hot food lamps, or radiators prior to use to prevent thermal deformation.
- Shield from Dust: Keep remaining stacked cups inside their protective outer packaging until loaded into counter dispensers.
- Store Stacks Flat: Keep cartons stacked flat on clean shelving to maintain cup shape and rim integrity.
|
| Technical Specifications |
- Material Base: 100% Plant-derived Polylactic Acid (PLA) from renewable cornstarch.
- Thermal Threshold: Intended strictly for cold and ambient drink applications (up to 40°C).
- Chemical Profile: 100% Petrochemical Plastic-Free, Non-Toxic, and Added PFAS-Free.
- Structural Format: Precision-molded clear cold drink cups with 96mm rim (9oz, 12oz, 16oz, 20oz).

|
| Disposal Guide |
- Green (Best): Soiled with smoothie, juice, or coffee residue? Dispose of used cups in commercial organic waste bins for industrial composting within 12 weeks.
- Amber (Good): Keep PLA separate from conventional oil-based PET plastic recycling streams to avoid polymer contamination.
- Red (Okay): If general waste is your only facility route, these pure plant matrices break down naturally over time in landfills without creating microplastics.
