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).
  • Certifications: Fully certified commercially compostable to EN13432 European standards.
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.
