Amber PET Cups for Iced Coffee, Boba & Cold Drinks
Food-grade amber plastic cups with matching flat and strawless lids. Two cup families — a U-shape curve series and classic straight-wall PET — in 10 stock sizes from 310 ml to 540 ml, all supporting custom logo printing.
Amber PET cups are disposable cold-drink cups made from transparent brown-tinted PET (polyethylene terephthalate) plastic. The warm amber tone makes iced coffee, milk tea, and fruit drinks look richer than in clear cups, while the food-safe PET keeps full drink visibility and crack resistance. They pair with 89 mm or 98 mm flat lids for straws and strawless sip lids for lattes and iced coffee.

U-Curve Ergonomic Series
The U-shape series (310–470 ml) has a rounded lower body that sits comfortably in hand and stands out from standard cups.
Three Matching Lid Types
Flat straw-slot lids, strawless sip lids, and heightened strawless lids for whipped or foam toppings — all in matching amber.
10 Stock Sizes, 2 Rim Diameters
89 mm and 98 mm rims across 310–540 ml capacities, so one lid inventory covers multiple drink sizes.
Custom Logo Printing
CMYK full-color offset printing with wash-resistant, fade-resistant ink. Custom sizes and packing solutions available.
Flat Lid vs Strawless Lid: Match the Lid to the Drink
Flat Lid (Straw Slot)
Cross-cut straw slot for fruit tea, boba, and blended drinks. Available for both 89 mm and 98 mm rims with a tight anti-leak snap fit.
Strawless Sip Lid
Raised sip spout for iced lattes, espresso drinks, and cold brew — no straw needed. A heightened version leaves room for cream foam and whipped toppings.

Amber PET Cup FAQs
Are amber PET cups food-safe and BPA-free?
Yes. The cups are made from food-grade PET (#1) resin, which is naturally BPA-free and approved for direct food and beverage contact. Food-contact test reports are available on request.
Can amber PET cups be used for hot drinks?
No — PET is a cold-drink material and is recommended for beverages below roughly 60 °C (140 °F). For hot coffee and tea, use paper hot cups or PP cups instead; we manufacture both.
Which lids fit which amber cups?
All 89 mm-rim cups (the full U-shape series plus the 12 oz and 16 oz standard cups) share the 89/90 mm flat lid, strawless lid, and heightened strawless lid. All 98 mm-rim cups share the 98 mm flat lid and heightened strawless lid.
What is the MOQ for custom printed amber cups?
Stock amber cups ship from 1,000 pcs per carton. Custom logo printing starts at [X0,000] pcs per size and design, with a small-MOQ program available for new brands. Contact us with your artwork for an exact quote.
Why choose amber cups over clear plastic cups?
The transparent amber tint gives iced coffee, milk tea, and fruit drinks a warmer, richer look — a visual advantage for menu photos and social media — while keeping the drink layers visible. Functionally, the cups perform the same as clear PET cold cups.
Are amber PET cups recyclable?
Yes. PET carries resin code #1, the most widely accepted plastic in curbside recycling programs across the US, UK, Canada, Australia, and the EU. Tinted PET is recyclable in most streams, though acceptance varies by local facility.
Can you produce custom sizes or a different tint depth?
Yes. Beyond the 10 stock sizes, we support custom capacities, rim diameters, and tint adjustments with our own molds and extrusion lines. Custom tooling requires a higher MOQ — send us your target size for feasibility and cost.
How do I get samples before ordering?
Stock samples of cups and lids are free; you only cover courier shipping. Printed pre-production samples are available after artwork confirmation. Most sample shipments reach the US, UK, or Australia within 5–7 days by express.
