Good Structural Stiffness
Thickened colored paperboard maintains cup shape at high temperature. Resists softening or collapsing when holding hot coffee, tea and other drinks.

Shipping & Logistics Recommendations
Colored paperboard rolls wrapped with waterproof film on pallets to avoid moisture absorption and color change. Finished nested plain color paper cups packed into corrugated master cartons, palletized for sea freight. Store in dry and ventilated warehouse; high humidity will weaken paper stiffness and cause seam leakage. Stack height ≤1.2m to prevent carton deformation and cup crushing. Complete food contact test reports and compliance certificates ready for customs clearance. 24-hour after-sales support for product and packaging adjustment.
