Your brand travels with every cup in hand

Cup Holder

A paper sleeve that slips onto a drink cup, with your logo and design printed in full-color UV offset across the entire outer face. The air pocket between cup and sleeve keeps heat and cold from reaching your hand. Made of eco-friendly natural pulp, it is clean and odor-free.

Story

With every cup in hand,
your brand travels too

Drinks handed out from a coffee truck, at a pop-up, or at an in-store event travel all over the venue in people's hands. Put your logo and design on the sleeve around that cup and the logo stays at their fingertips until the last sip, showing up in their photos too.

The sleeve also does a practical job: it keeps heat and cold from hitting the hand holding the cup. Because it is something recipients use comfortably, your brand holds its place for the entire event without anyone having to be told to keep it.

Highlights

Why it gets used

Point 01

Full-color UV offset print across the entire sleeve

Background or standard print

The entire outer face of the sleeve is your canvas. UV offset printing reproduces multicolor logos, gradients, characters, and even background colors close to their original tones. Choose between background print, which floods the sleeve with color, and standard print, which places only your logo and text.

Air pocket between cup and sleeve keeps drinks hot or cold
Point 02

Air pocket between cup and sleeve keeps drinks hot or cold

Air-pocket insulation

The top and bottom edges of the sleeve are rolled inward, creating an air pocket between cup and sleeve. It works like insulation, passing less heat or cold to your hand and holding the drink's temperature a little longer. The cup simply feels more comfortable to hold.

Point 03

3 sizes to fit paper cups and iced cups

3 sizes: 92mm and 98mm

Three sizes in 92mm and 98mm diameters let you match the cups you have. The 92mm fits 10, 13, and 16 oz paper cups and iced cups, the 98mm fits 12 and 16 oz, and the 24 oz version fits large cups. Cup dimensions vary slightly by manufacturer, so we recommend checking before you choose.

Point 04

Eco-friendly natural pulp, free of heavy metals and endocrine disruptors

Natural pulp · non-toxic

The base stock is eco-friendly natural pulp. It is clean, with no dust or odor, and releases no heavy metals or endocrine disruptors. Since it goes directly onto a cup holding a drink, it is an easy choice even where materials are scrutinized.

Point 05

Choice of glossy or matte stock

Royal ivory board · cup stock

You can choose between two paper stocks for the outer face. Royal ivory board is glossy, so colors come out vivid and refined, while cup stock has a subtle matte emboss and sizing treatment that stands up a little better to moisture. We suggest the stock that suits your design and use.

Color

Color

The outer face is printed in full color to your design proof, so there are no fixed color options. For the base stock you can choose between glossy royal ivory board and matte cup stock, and the same design can look slightly different depending on the stock. Monitor settings and lighting can also cause differences from the actual printed color.

Notes
Send us your design file laid out on the print template we provide, and we print after a design proof review. You can choose between background print, which fills the sleeve with color, and standard print, which places only your logo and text. Small runs go on a gang-run plate shared with other designs, while large runs get a dedicated plate for your design alone. We confirm the exact print area and method at the design proof stage.
Additional printing
If you would like printing in a location or method other than the print area shown, please reach out separately. We will check what is possible for the product and let you know.
Design template
A design template will be provided separately when production begins.
Use Case

Where it fits best

Events & campaigns

Great for handing out at coffee truck support events, pop-up stores, and event drink booths. As people carry their cups around the venue, your logo and campaign design get seen naturally.

IP & characters

Well suited to idol fan support and character merch. Portraits and characters can be printed large in full color, so they stand out at fan events.

Retail & cafes

Slip it onto store and cafe drinks as a branding item. It fits both paper cups and iced cups, so it stays in use even as seasonal drinks change.

FAQ

Frequently asked questions

Does it come with cups, or just the sleeve?
What we produce is the sleeve that slips onto the cup. You will need to source the drink cups separately, and we make the sleeves in the size that fits the cups you have.
Will it fit the cups we use?
With three sizes across 92mm and 98mm diameters, you can match most paper cups and iced cups. Cup dimensions do vary slightly by manufacturer, so tell us the diameter and capacity of your cups and we will confirm the right size.
Can you print our logo in multiple colors?
UV offset full-color printing reproduces multicolor logos, characters, and even gradients close to their original tones. Flooding the background with color is possible too, so send us your design and we will recommend the right approach.
Will the printed color differ from what I see on screen?
Printing uses CMYK, so colors can come out slightly different from what you see on screen (RGB), and the tone also shifts between glossy and matte stock. If color matters in your design, we recommend checking at the design proof stage.
Can it be used for both hot and iced drinks?
Yes, it works for both hot and cold drinks. The air pocket between cup and sleeve reduces the heat or cold reaching your hand. For iced drinks in summer, condensation can dampen the stock, so we also suggest the matte cup stock, which holds up a little better to moisture.
Can we receive them in time for our event?
Lead time is about 2 weeks after the design proof is approved. If your date is set, please order with time to spare; if you need a faster turnaround, reach out about your schedule and we will check.
