For milk tea shops, bubble tea chains, and coffee houses, every component of a to-go cup is critical to the customer experience. The lid not only prevents messy spills but also protects the beverage from external contaminants. Our food grade PP plastic flat lid delivers a reliable seal, holding firmly onto a variety of standard cup rims without warping or cracking. Manufactured in an ISO-certified facility, these lids meet rigorous international safety standards, making them the go-to choice for high-volume beverage businesses.
The lid is molded from 100% virgin polypropylene (PP) resin approved for direct food contact. It is free of BPA, BPS, phthalates, and harmful plasticizers. Rigorous batch testing ensures compliance with FDA 21 CFR, EU 10/2011, and LFGB. This material does not impart any taste or odor to the drink, preserving the authentic flavor profile of premium teas and fruit-based beverages. Additionally, PP withstands a wide temperature range from -20°C to 120°C, making it safe for chilled iced teas as well as freshly brewed hot milk teas without deformation.
A precisely engineered inner bead creates a tight friction fit with rolled-edge cups. The flat profile eliminates weak points that could lead to cracks under pressure, which is essential for delivery and takeout scenarios. Even when cups are stacked or tilted during transport, the lid remains securely in place. The smooth top surface can also be used with induction seal liners for tamper-evident packaging when extra security is needed.

The flat lid’s even, non-textured surface acts as a miniature billboard. Many businesses opt for single-color logo printing to reinforce brand identity. Using food-safe inks, we can reproduce your artwork with precise registration. Hot stamping in gold or silver foil adds a premium touch for specialty events or limited-edition drinks. Custom colors for the lid itself are also achievable through masterbatch compounding, providing brand consistency from cup to lid.
