For cafes, takeaway and cup packaging producers
Paper cup carrier dies
A takeaway cup carrier must hold cups securely without crushing them. A correct die keeps hole size, creasing and lock allowances consistent through production.
Where is it used?
Cafe chains, takeaway packaging producers and print shops can prepare cup carrier forms for paperboard or kraft stock.
- 2-cup and 4-cup carriers
- Kraft cup trays
- Hot and cold drink takeaway packaging
- Branded promotional carriers
Production benefit of the die
Small hole errors can make the cup loose or too tight. The die keeps hole and crease geometry consistent.
- Controlled repeat on hole diameter
- Reduced tearing on fold lines
- Production-ready lock and tab allowance
- Fast proof and repeat-order advantage
Quote information
Cup volume and outside diameter are the key inputs. A sample cup makes the fit safer.
- Cup top/bottom diameter and volume
- 2-cup or 4-cup carrier choice
- Material weight and kraft/carton preference
- Lock, handle clearance and logo area
Common questions
1Can one carrier die fit different cup sizes?
Sometimes for close dimensions, but cup diameter should be checked for secure holding.
2Can kraft material tear?
Wrong crease and tight corners can tear. The die is planned by material weight.
3Do you need a sample cup?
If no dimensional file exists, a sample cup helps determine hole diameter and holding allowance.
