To Go Coffee Cup: Which Coffee Cup Should I Choose?
There are a few factors to consider when choosing a coffee cup to go . You should ask about the following four before you decide to buy one:
- Material : To-go coffee cups are available in a variety of materials, including cardboard, plastic, or stainless steel. Stainless steel is more environmentally friendly and durable than plastic, and most of your customers are familiar with cardboard. If you prefer cardboard, look for uncoated coffee cups for the sake of the environment.
- Insulation : If it is important for your guests to keep their coffee warm for a long time, you should offer them a reusable thermos cup for a deposit. Since reusable products are only just becoming popular, it is worth giving your customers the choice between disposable and reusable in order to reach as many people as possible.
- Size : The different sizes of your takeaway coffee are of course decisive for the sizes of the to-go cups.
-
Lid : Do your customers need a lid? Offer them the lid as an option, because if they start consuming their hot drink immediately after buying it, for example, they may not need a lid at all, which saves material.
