Cup lids VegWare 79-Series CPLA, pack of 50, compostable hot cup lids

VegWare 79-Series CPLA cup lids are compostable hot cup lids supplied in a pack of 50. Manufactured from crystallized polylactic acid (CPLA), these single-use lids are designed to fit standard 79 mm cup openings and provide a hygienic, spill-resistant closure for hot beverages. The lightweight construction is intended for takeaway service in cafes, catering and events where a biodegradable alternative to conventional plastic lids is required.

Advantages

These compostable lids offer a clear environmental advantage compared with oil-based plastics because they are made from plant-derived materials that can be industrially composted. The 79-Series geometry provides a reliable snap-fit on compatible hot cups, reducing accidental spills and heat loss. Supplied in a practical pack of 50, the lids are convenient for small-to-medium scale foodservice operations and event use, combining single-use convenience with a reduced end-of-life impact when composted correctly.

• Hot takeaway coffee and tea cups with 79 mm rim diameter

How to use

Place the VegWare 79-Series CPLA lid onto the rim of a compatible 79 mm hot cup and press around the edge until the lid snaps into place. Ensure the lid is fully seated to maintain spill resistance. Use the integrated drinking hole if present or remove the lid before drinking if preferred. After use, dispose of the lid via industrial composting facilities where available; if commercial composting is not accessible, follow local waste management guidance for biodegradable PLA products.

Usage recommendations

Store lids in a dry, cool place away from direct sunlight to preserve shape and performance. Do not reuse lids intended for single use. For best composting results, collect used lids with other suitable compostable foodservice waste and send to an industrial composting facility that accepts CPLA materials.
