Customizing cupstock paper for your need
Sure Paper goes beyond supplying materials by offering professional technical guidance for every custom cupstock paper project. We help customers select the most suitable weight, thickness, and coating combinations based on application needs, processing conditions, and market requirements, ensuring stable performance and cost efficiency.
Sure Paper supports cupstock paper weights from about 150 – 320 gsm depending on application. Lighter weights around 150–190 gsm for cold drink cups. And heavier weights above 230–320 gsm for hot beverages or soup bowls. These ranges align with industry standards for cupstock materials and ensure structural stability and consumer comfort.
Between 0.22 mm and 0.48 mm, thickness influences stiffness and insulation. For example, a 230–320 gsm cup stock board typically displays higher rigidity and better shape retention during forming and use. Sure Paper works with you to match thickness to machine compatibility and product purpose for reliable performance.
Coating choice also affects performance. PE coatings enhance moisture and heat resistance for both hot and cold uses, while PLA in the 10–30 gsm range or water-based coatings provide eco-friendly alternatives with tailored thermal properties. Sure Paper advises on the best coating weight and type based on your target service temperature.
Safe, effective food packaging begins with the right cupstock paper
Sure Paper’s extensive product range and reliable supply capabilities support a wide variety of food packaging applications.
We tailor our cup base paper recommendations to meet real-world performance needs.
Hot beverage cups require strong heat resistance, moisture barriers, and excellent printability. Sure Paper offers specially designed base papers with appropriate grammage and PE or PLA coatings to ensure reliable performance at temperatures up to 85–95 °C. Our team helps choose the optimal specifications for your markets.
Sure Paper supplies cupstock papers with double-sided coatings. Cold applications need high stiffness and moisture protection, especially for condensation control. For products that may require extended holding time, such as ice cream cartons, higher GSM papers (230–350 GSM) are used. Our paperboard performs well on holding ice cream, and cold drinks.
Soup bowls and noodle containers face extended contact with hot liquids and oils. We recommend 240–330 gsm cupstock papers with enhanced barrier PE coated. These thicker specifications provide the necessary structural support for dense, hot contents while maintaining leak-proof performance throughout serving.
Cupstock paper is also widely used in a range of food packaging boxes, such as take-out boxes, salad bowls, and fried bucket. These must resist grease and moisture. Sure Paper’s versatile cupstock boards deliver strong formability, reliable barriers, and excellent printing surfaces for diverse food packaging formats.
