Custom Cup Sleeves & Carriers
Cup sleeves protect your customers’ hands from hot beverages, and cup carriers keep multiple drinks stable during transport. Both are essential accessories for any café or restaurant doing takeaway — and both are excellent, low-cost branding surfaces that your customers hold, carry, and see up close.
Cup Sleeves
Corrugated Kraft Sleeves
The most popular option. Corrugated kraft paper provides excellent insulation and a comfortable textured grip. Fits standard 8oz–20oz hot cups. Natural brown color with custom 1–4 color printing. Compostable and recyclable.
Printed Paper Sleeves
Smooth paperboard sleeves with full-color printing capability. Less insulation than corrugated but superior print quality — ideal for brands with detailed logos or photographic designs.
Embossed Sleeves
Custom debossed or embossed patterns add a tactile, premium feel. Popular with specialty coffee brands. Can be combined with printing for a layered visual effect.
Cup Carriers
2-Cup Carriers
Molded pulp or corrugated cardboard carriers for two beverages. Lightweight, stackable, and recyclable. The standard for coffee-shop takeaway orders.
4-Cup Carriers
Carriers that hold four cups securely with dividers. Essential for office coffee runs and multi-drink delivery orders. Available in molded pulp (strong, stackable) or corrugated cardboard (lighter, printable).
