Disposable Paper Cups Can Be Divided Into Cold Drink Cups And Hot Drink Cups According To Their Purpose

With the improvement of living standards, people's consumption concepts are also constantly changing. More and more people are pursuing a convenient and fast lifestyle, and disposable paper cups have become one of the indispensable items in people's daily lives. According to their usage, disposable paper cups can be divided into cold drink cups and hot drink cups.

A cold drink cup, as the name suggests, is a disposable paper cup specially designed to hold cold drinks. Its appearance is not much different from a regular paper cup, but due to different uses, its internal structure and material are also different. The body of a cold drink cup is usually made of food grade wood pulp paper+inner and outer PLA coating or water-based coating, which can effectively prevent the wood pulp paper from losing its original stiffness and toughness due to contact with water.

A hot drink cup is a disposable paper cup used to hold hot drinks. Compared to a cold drink cup, the design of a hot drink cup is more complex because the temperature of hot drinks is relatively high, and high-temperature resistant materials need to be selected to make hot drink paper cups. At present, hot drink paper cups on the market generally use materials such as food grade wood pulp paper+inner surface polylactic acid (PLA) coating or water-based coating. These materials can not only withstand high temperatures but also prevent liquid leakage. The single-layer single coated paper cup with sleeve insulation is the most popular choice for merchants. In addition, in order to increase the insulation effect of hot drink paper cups, some manufacturers also add a vacuum layer or air cushion layer on the inner wall of the cup, which is a hollow cup with insulation function, and its quality is far greater than ordinary paper cups or single-layer paper cups.

Overall, although both cold and hot beverage paper cups are disposable containers, there are still significant differences in their material selection and design. In daily life, we can choose different types of disposable paper cups according to our own needs to achieve the best usage effect. At the same time, we should also pay attention to environmental issues, reduce the use of disposable items or choose biodegradable, recyclable, and compostable products to contribute to protecting the environment of the earth.
