90-12oz PLA Cup (360ml): Eco-Friendly, Transparent & Customizable Beverage Packaging Solution

DaShan & Craftsmanship Storytelling

At DaShan, we pride ourselves on combining sustainable practices with cutting-edge craftsmanship. The 90-12oz PLA Cup represents the pinnacle of our innovation, designed with both functionality and environmental responsibility in mind.

Our cups are made from PLA, a material derived from renewable plant resources such as corn or sugarcane. This cup is produced through the thermoforming process, where heated PLA material is molded into its final shape. Our high-quality production ensures that each cup fits seamlessly with matching lids, offering a secure, leak-proof seal.

We understand that packaging is more than just about containment—it’s about the consumer experience. The 90-12oz PLA Cup is designed to enhance the presentation of cold beverages, whether served in cafes, juice bars, or at large-scale events. With a focus on both aesthetics and sustainability, DaShan continues to innovate in the field of eco-friendly packaging.

Materials & Sourcing

DaShan ensures that all materials used in our packaging solutions are sourced from trusted suppliers who adhere to strict sustainability and ethical sourcing standards. We believe in offering eco-friendly alternatives that do not compromise on quality or performance.
