Black Ripple Coffee Cups 12oz 500 Pack
Black Ripple Coffee Cups 8oz 500 Pack
Wholesale Ripple Cups for UK Specialty Coffee
8oz, 12oz and 16oz kraft ripple formats in stock
The ripple cups range covers the premium triple-wall format UK specialty coffee and branded café operations reach for — 8oz small for short-pulls and macchiato, 12oz medium for standard takeaway coffee, and 16oz extra-large for sharing lattes and chai. The corrugated kraft middle layer holds the strongest insulation in the takeaway coffee cup family while giving the cup a distinctive tactile rippled finish. Stock holdings include both natural kraft and printed/branded ripple cups variants.
Ripple cups certified for direct food contact
Every ripple cups specification is food-contact safe under UK and EU Regulation 1935/2004. The inner-wall PE or PLA lining holds hot drinks to standard café-service temperatures; the three-layer construction (inner liner, corrugated kraft, outer kraft) provides the strongest thermal insulation in the disposable-cup family. FSC-certified base stock is recyclable through standard paper streams when uncontaminated by coating breakdown; PLA-lined compostable ripple cups are stocked for operators tracking sustainability commitments.

Frequently Asked Questions
What's the minimum order on ripple cups?
There is no minimum order on the ripple cups range — buy a single case or order by the pallet. The same trade pricing applies in either case, with no small-order surcharge. Volume tiers add discount on pallet quantities; full pricing breakpoints are visible after registering a trade account.
Why pay more for ripple cups vs double-wall?
Ripple cups offer stronger insulation than double-wall (three layers vs two) and a distinctive tactile rippled outer wall that elevates café presentation. The format is favoured by specialty coffee shops, branded chains and operators where the cup itself is part of the brand experience. For pure thermal performance at a lower cost-per-cup, double-wall is the workhorse choice.
Are ripple cups recyclable or compostable?
FSC-certified kraft ripple cups are recyclable through standard paper streams when uncontaminated. PLA-lined compostable variants are stocked alongside conventional PE-lined ripple cups for operators with industrial-composting commitments. Coating type is listed on every product page, along with the recycling/composting pathway.
How fast do ripple cups ship?
Orders placed before 1pm dispatch the same working day from Newcastle. Free local delivery applies on trade orders over £99 within the Newcastle delivery zone; UK-wide orders ship on a paid next-day courier service charged at checkout.
