The sample is paper decal 80 gsm with gloss lamination.
This group mixes formed plastic and shaped paper. PP and PET cups and tubs are injection-moulded or thermoformed from sheet, tapered so they nest, and closed with a snap lid on the rim or a heat-sealed film from a cup sealer. Paper cups and bowls are rolled from a fan-shaped PE-coated blank, heat-sealed along the side seam, given a separate paper bottom and a curled rim, which the paper or PET lid presses onto.
PP handles roughly 100–120 °C and microwaves, so it is the standard for meal boxes, soup bowls and sealed bubble-tea cups; PET is clearer but for cold food only. Paper cups and bowls use 230–350 gsm cup stock coated with PE on one side (dry or cold food) or both sides (steamy hot food, ice cream); double-wall builds insulate hot soups. Every food-contact material must meet food-contact safety rules, including outside inks where lips may touch.
Plastic cups and tubs are rarely printed directly in small runs: the brand rides on printed sealing film, a lid sticker, a paper sleeve or a tamper seal. Only large runs justify dry-offset printing on the cup body or in-mould labels (IML). Paper cups and bowls are printed flexo or offset on the flat blank before forming; no extra lamination, since the PE coat already does the barrier job.
A paper cup or bowl wall is a curved fan, not a rectangle: design on the arc dieline, keep 6–10 mm of side-seam overlap clear of type and 3–5 mm under the curled rim. Sealing film for plastic cups is designed inside the mouth circle (e.g. 95 mm), inset 5–8 mm because the sealer trims the edge, with the straw point kept off key text. Lunch-box lid stickers belong on the flat centre of the lid, clear of ridges and locking beads.
Yes, if it is PE-lined inside and the paper lid fits the rim; after more than an hour the wall may soften. Four sizes, Ø150 × 60 to Ø185 × 75 mm, for pho, noodles, rice and poke.
Kraft absorbs ink and pale colours sink; one or two dark inks — black, dark brown, burgundy — look best. Bright colours need a white underlay, which costs more and loses the natural look.
PP is cloudier and flexible, and handles heat and microwaves. PET is glass-clear and stiff, great for lids and cold drinks, but not for hot food.
Print the sealing film on a roll, or put stickers on the cup and lid. Printing directly on the cup body only pays off in large runs.
Single-wall is light and suits cold or dry food. Double-wall adds an outer layer with an air gap, so hot food doesn't burn the hand and the cup feels sturdier.
