12oz Single Wall Bamboo Coffee Cup Compostable 1000/ctn

12oz bamboo fibre coffee cup, compostable and plastic-free SKU: PT-ABC12S | 1000 pcs/carton | 80mm lid

The Packware PT-ABC12S is a 12oz single wall coffee cup made from bamboo fibre with an aqueous coating, offering a credible plastic-free alternative to standard PE-lined paper cups. Designed for high-volume food service operations that have committed to removing single-use plastics from their beverage service, this cup is industrially compostable and built for busy venues going through large quantities. At 1000 cups per carton, it suits operations that need bulk compostable stock without frequent reordering.

As a single wall cup, a sleeve or cup holder is recommended when serving hot drinks to ensure customers can hold the cup comfortably. This is standard for single wall construction across all cup materials. The bamboo fibre finish has a natural, textured appearance that suits cafes and event operators presenting a sustainability-focused brand to customers. Unlike PE-lined paper cups, the aqueous coating on PT-ABC12S breaks down in an industrial composting facility without leaving plastic residue.

Frequently asked questions

Q: Is this cup fully compostable?

A: PT-ABC12S is industrially compostable. It needs to go through a commercial composting facility to break down correctly. It is not suitable for home composting bins and should not be placed in general recycling.

Q: Do I need a sleeve with this cup?

A: A sleeve or cup holder is recommended for hot drinks. As a single wall cup, the outer surface will transfer heat from the liquid inside. Pairing it with a sleeve gives customers a comfortable hold and is standard practice for single wall cups regardless of material.

Q: What lid fits this cup?

A: This cup takes an 80mm diameter lid. Check that your current lids are 80mm before ordering if you are switching from a different cup size or supplier.

Q: How does this compare to a standard paper cup?

A: Standard takeaway paper cups use a PE plastic lining to make them liquid-resistant, which makes them difficult to recycle and not compostable. This cup uses an aqueous coating instead, which breaks down in industrial composting without leaving plastic behind.

Q: Can I buy these in bulk?

A: Yes. Each carton contains 1000 cups, making PT-ABC12S one of the higher-quantity carton options in the Packware range. Contact Packware for volume pricing if you are ordering multiple cartons.

Q: Do you deliver to Melbourne same day or next day?

A: Packware offers next-day metro Melbourne delivery on in-stock orders. Same-day options are available for urgent reorders. Contact the team to confirm availability.

Q: Are these available Australia-wide?

A: Yes. Packware ships to all states and territories. Freight rates apply outside of metro Melbourne.
