At DaShan, our commitment to sustainable and innovative food packaging is evident in every product we create. With years of experience in the industry, we focus on offering reliable, customizable, and eco-friendly solutions that enhance foodservice experiences globally. Our 115-32oz PLA Cup is one of our proud creations, showcasing our dedication to quality, craftsmanship, and environmental responsibility.

Using advanced vacuum thermoforming techniques, we create cups that not only maintain structural integrity but also offer high transparency and smooth finishes. By choosing PLA (Polylactic Acid), we ensure that our products are biodegradable and compostable, aligning with the global shift towards reducing plastic waste.

Materials & Sourcing

Our 115-32oz PLA Cup is made from PLA, a plant-based plastic derived from renewable resources such as cornstarch or sugarcane. This material is a sustainable alternative to traditional petroleum-based plastics, offering the following benefits:

• Eco-friendly & Biodegradable: PLA cups break down into natural components in composting environments.

• Clear and Transparent: The high clarity of PLA ensures that beverages inside the cup are visible and visually appealing.

• Strong & Flexible: Despite being eco-friendly, PLA offers excellent durability for large capacity drinks.

By sourcing PLA from trusted suppliers, we ensure that all materials meet the highest environmental and quality standards.

This technique involves heating PLA sheets to a specific temperature and then forming them over molds under vacuum pressure. The result is a product with high clarity, uniform thickness, and smooth edges. Our precise manufacturing process ensures that each cup meets rigorous quality standards and is free from defects.

The vacuum thermoforming process also allows us to create customized designs, such as logos and artwork, directly on the cup’s surface. This process ensures that the cups remain 100% transparent, showcasing beverages without distortion while allowing for vibrant and clear print designs.

Sustainability

The 115-32oz PLA Cup is a biodegradable and compostable alternative to traditional plastic cups, making it an eco-friendly choice for businesses looking to reduce their environmental impact. PLA is derived from renewable plant resources, reducing dependence on fossil fuels and lowering carbon footprints.

Once discarded, the cup can break down in industrial composting facilities, leaving no harmful residues. This commitment to sustainability is part of DaShan’s broader effort to provide greener alternatives in the food packaging industry.
