18oz 560ml PLA Wide Base Cups for Specialty Beverages and Custom Drink Packaging

The 98mm 18oz 560ml Wide Base PLA Cup is designed for beverage businesses that want a larger serving size without relying on the conventional tall-cup format. With a 560ml capacity, 98mm top diameter, 75mm bottom diameter and only 100mm height, it creates a distinctly broad and compact profile that stands apart from standard takeaway drink cups.

The most important structural feature is its 75mm wide base. Instead of adding height to increase beverage capacity, this model distributes more volume across the width of the cup. That gives the 18oz format a shorter, fuller appearance and makes the cup itself part of the product presentation rather than simply a container.

For specialty beverage stores, modern tea shops, cafés and beverage chains, this structure can be particularly useful for signature drinks, seasonal beverages and promotional menu items that need a visibly different packaging format from regular 400ml-500ml cups.

Made from PLA, the cup also provides a bio-based material option for disposable cold beverage packaging, while maintaining a clear body suitable for customized branding and product visibility.

The 560ml capacity provides a generous serving volume while the cup remains only 100mm high. This is a major structural difference from conventional large takeaway cups, which often increase capacity by extending the cup vertically. For buyers looking for a large serving size without a tall profile, this model offers a clearly different packaging direction.

The 75mm bottom diameter is the defining dimensional feature of this cup. Combined with the 98mm top opening, it creates a much smaller difference between the upper and lower diameters than in highly tapered beverage cups. The result is a broad, fuller body that gives the cup a distinctive visual identity.

The 98mm top diameter keeps the cup within a broad-rim packaging system while supporting its wide-body proportions. For B2B buyers, the rim specification also provides a clear reference point when evaluating compatible lids. Actual lid fit should always be confirmed before bulk ordering.

This cup is particularly useful when the physical cup shape itself needs to help distinguish a beverage line. Its short and wide proportions can create a recognizable presentation for signature drinks, seasonal products, limited editions and promotional beverage programs.

The transparent cup body keeps beverage color and presentation visible, which is useful for fruit drinks, iced tea, specialty coffee, layered beverages and seasonal cold drinks. PLA also provides a bio-based material option for businesses reviewing alternative materials for disposable beverage packaging. Any specific environmental or compostability claim should be based on the actual product documentation and applicable disposal conditions.

The confirmed 10g reference weight provides procurement teams and wholesale buyers with an additional physical specification when comparing this model with other PLA cup formats.

The cup's wide and compact structure makes it especially suitable for signature drinks that need a different packaging identity from standard menu items.

Fresh tea, fruit tea and specialty cold drinks can benefit from the cup's broader visual profile, particularly when presentation is part of the product concept.

The clear PLA body helps display colorful juices, fruit beverages and layered drinks, while the 560ml capacity provides a generous serving format.

Its unusual proportions make this cup a strong option for seasonal launches, limited-edition beverages and promotional campaigns where packaging differentiation is important.

For multi-store beverage brands, the cup can be used as a dedicated specialty-size format alongside more conventional 400ml, 450ml and 500ml cups.

Custom logo printing is available for beverage brands, cafes, distributors and foodservice packaging buyers. Customization can include:

• Brand Logo / Company Name
• Custom Graphics / Brand Patterns
• Signature Drink Artwork
• Promotional Designs / Seasonal Campaign Graphics

Because this model has a shorter and wider body, artwork should be adapted specifically to its proportions rather than copied directly from taller cup formats. This gives businesses more flexibility when developing dedicated packaging for:

• Signature Beverages
• Seasonal Drinks
• Limited-Edition Products
• Promotional Campaigns
• Specialty Beverage Lines
