Disposable Clear PLA Cups – 15-Piece Pack

Technical and Usage Features for the Retail Sector

These transparent cups are manufactured from PLA (Polylactic Acid), a plant-based biopolymer. Consequently, the material is fully compliant with the EN 13432 industrial compostability standard, as verified by international third-party certifications.

Functional Design and Volumetric Precision
The cups are engineered to balance aesthetic clarity with professional-grade functionality:

Optical Transparency: Provides a crystal-clear finish that maintains the full visibility of the contents, making them ideal for soft drinks, juices, and cold infusions.

Cold Beverage Optimization: Specifically designed for temperature-controlled liquids, maintaining structural rigidity without altering the organoleptic profile of the drink.

Volumetric Marking: This 250cc model includes a functional 200cc fill line (tacca di riferimento), expanding its suitability for public events, catering, and regulated beverage service.

Ergonomic Rim: Features a smooth, rounded rim designed for a comfortable drinking experience and secure lid compatibility if required.

Logistical Efficiency: Designed for compact stacking and protection during transport, ensuring the product reaches the end-consumer in perfect condition.

Certified Lifecycle and End-of-Life Management
A core strategic feature is the product’s documented environmental performance:

LCA (Life Cycle Assessment): The PLA used is subject to rigorous Life Cycle Assessment calculations, providing scientific evidence of its environmental footprint from resource to production.

Industrial Compostability: The finished product is certified for industrial composting. Consequently, post-use, these cups can be processed in authorized industrial composting facilities as per local waste management guidelines.

Traceable Supply Chain: The entire lifecycle is supported by independent audits, offering a regulated and transparent disposal pathway compared to conventional plastics.

Conclusion
In summary, the 15-piece Retail PLA Cup pack combines high-level functional performance with a verifiable environmental profile. It represents a practical, certified solution for the retail sector, meeting the demand for transparent food-contact materials with a clearly defined industrial end-of-life protocol.
