Compostable Coffee Cup Lids
Built for cafés, restaurants, and B2B coffee programs, our coffee cup lids use molded fiber, kraft paper, and paper. Stocked sizes include 20 oz, 22 oz, and 8 oz.
What sets our coffee cup lids apart
- True PLA lining (no PE). Hot drinks stay leak-free for hours, but the entire cup composts as a single unit — no mixed-material headache for the consumer.
- Hot-drink rated to 85°C. Coffee, tea, and hot chocolate hold without softening or warping.
- Lid compatibility tested. Cup rims match standard 8/10/12/16/20/22 oz lid bases, including our PLA-lid range.
- Sustainable kraft + tree-free options. FSC-certified kraft and tree-free pulp options for brands that want to telegraph the material story.

OEM, private label, and bulk orders
Standard sizes ship from inventory; OEM, ODM, and private-label runs with custom dimensions and branded artwork ship factory direct from our Shenzhen facility. Print methods include flexo (volume-cost efficient at 10,000+ units), digital (short-run / multi-SKU / seasonal artwork), and embossing (premium-positioned items). All inks are food-safe and either water-based or UV-cured — both compost end-to-end.
Frequently asked questions
Are these cups PLA-lined or PE-lined?
Always PLA-lined. No PE. The lining and the paperboard both compost in industrial facilities — no mixed-material disposal.
Can I microwave them?
No — PLA softens above ~110°F. For microwave-safe foodservice items, see our fiber bowls range.
