Frequently asked questions

Why 98mm vs 95mm? 98mm is the standard for smoothie and iced coffee cups — slightly wider rim than the 95mm bubble tea standard. Different lid systems aren’t cross-compatible.

Can I heat-seal these? No — PET cups deform under sealing machine heat. Use snap-on 98mm PET lids for closure. For sealed boba drinks use PP cups instead.

Is PET recyclable in the UK? Yes — PET plastic (code 1) is widely accepted in UK kerbside recycling and can be infinitely recycled into new PET products.

What straws fit through the lid? 98mm PET lids have a centre hole that fits any standard 8-12mm bubble tea or smoothie straw — paper, bamboo, bagasse or plastic.
