FAQ About Cup Sleeves
These questions help confirm the basic sleeve specification before quotation.
Can one sleeve fit multiple cup sizes?
Sometimes, but not always. Cup taper and body diameter affect fit. We recommend checking the sleeve dieline against the actual cup sample.
Can you print our logo on kraft cup sleeves?
Yes. Kraft cup sleeves can be printed with simple logos, brand text, icons and campaign graphics.
Do cup sleeves ship flat or glued?
Both options can be discussed. Packing method depends on sleeve structure, order quantity and freight requirements.
What information is needed for a quote?
Please send cup size, sleeve material, artwork file, order quantity, packing request and destination country.
Need custom cup sleeves for your beverage brand?
Send your cup size, sleeve material, logo file and quantity. We will help confirm the dieline, printing method and quotation.
