With the development of the catering industry and the improvement of hygiene needs, disposable paper cups have become a must-have for people’s lives. The history of disposable paper cups is not long. According to relevant information, the earliest patented paper cups appeared in the 20th century.
Today’s paper cups are not only used to serve drinks such as coffee and tea, but also to hold food, such as ice cream and soup, etc. When you go to any office, fast food restaurant, or large-scale event, you will see disposable paper cups.
So, do you really understand paper cups?
In fact, paper cups can be roughly divided into three types:
The first one is made of cardboard, which is mainly used to hold dry food such as popcorn and fried chicken, and cannot hold water;
The second is a waxed paper cup, with a layer of paraffin on the inner wall to waterproof, which can be used to hold frozen drinks, carbonated drinks, etc., and cannot hold hot water that is too high;
The third type is the “paper-plastic cup”, which is also the most common and most used type of paper cup on the market. The outer wall of the cup is coated with a layer of paper, and the inner wall is coated with a layer of polyethylene or polypropylene coated paper, which can be used for both cold and hot drinks. Paper-plastic cups manufactured according to my country’s industry standards have no problem in terms of safety.
The hygiene and safety of paper cups directly affect our health. Therefore, it is recommended that buyers should consider more when choosing paper cups suppliers, and try to choose a strong and guaranteed paper cups manufacturer.
