Double Wall Paper Cup

Accum double wall paper cups are firm and sturdy with great texture for touching and holding.

 

The double wall paper cup creates a barrier between two outer layers to allow heat resist as well as heat preservation. For take-away coffee, we highly recommend our Super Heat Resistant Cup. Studies indicate that holding a paper cup in hand, the safe temperature without risk of scalding is below 65.5℃. We innovated the magic constructions for hot beverages, so that the touching temperature of our Super Heat Resistant Cup will not exceed 65.5℃. Thus, there's no need to use an additional cup or sleeve. The outer layer can be matt finish as well as glossy finish.

 

If you don't have a clue, Accum Studio is ready to provide the trendy solution and design for your brand.

INDUSTRY KNOWLEDGE

Thermal Performance Considerations for Double Wall Paper Cups

Double wall paper cups are designed to enhance heat insulation, but the actual performance depends heavily on factors such as air gap size, outer layer material density, and cup wall rigidity. A well-designed air pocket slows conductive heat transfer, keeping beverages hotter for longer while protecting the hand from discomfort. Manufacturers often adjust flute height, outer paper thickness, or embossing patterns to fine-tune insulation efficiency, especially for premium hot drink applications where temperature retention directly influences user experience.

Reducing Cup Deformation Under High Temperature

Hot-fill beverages can exert pressure on cup walls, especially when filled rapidly or shaken during transport. Double wall structures add mechanical strength, but deformation resistance is also influenced by core paper stiffness (measured in GSM), polyethylene or water-based coating thickness, and cup-forming precision. Manufacturers often conduct vertical compression tests and hot-liquid resistance tests to ensure cups maintain structural integrity in demanding service scenarios like takeaway delivery.

Ink and Coating Stability for High-Temperature Applications

Because double wall paper cups provide more print coverage and tactile design opportunities, ensuring ink stability becomes crucial. Soft-touch varnishes, anti-scuff coatings, and food-contact-safe inks must withstand elevated temperatures from hot beverages without transferring odors or deforming visually. Water-based inks are increasingly favored due to environmental compliance and reduced VOC emissions, though they require optimized drying systems to prevent smudging or delamination during production.

Comparative Insulation and Comfort Factors

Double wall paper cups differ substantially from single wall and ripple wall designs when measured across insulation efficiency, tactile comfort, and branding opportunities. Understanding these distinctions helps buyers select the best format for specific service needs. The table below summarizes practical differences based on real use conditions.

Cup Type Heat Protection Comfort Level Branding Surface
Single Wall Low Requires Sleeve for Hot Drinks Standard
Ripple Wall Medium–High Textured Grip Moderate
Double Wall High Smooth, Comfortable Hold Large Printable Area

Selecting the Right Paper Composition for Double Wall Cups

Paper composition plays a decisive role in sustainability performance and product durability. Many manufacturers opt for FSC-certified virgin fiber for food safety and cup-forming stability, while integrating a portion of recycled fibers into the outer wall to reduce material cost and environmental impact. When evaluating material options, consider these factors:

  • Outer paper GSM: Higher GSM improves rigidity and insulation but increases total material usage.
  • Coating type: Water-based coatings offer improved compostability compared to traditional PE lining.
  • Color and texture: Matte, glossy, or embossed surfaces influence tactile feel and print accuracy.

Optimizing Cup-Fitting Accuracy With Lids

Double wall cups often require stricter tolerance control to ensure tight lid fitting, as the added outer layer can introduce dimensional variation. Precision trimming, consistent curl rolling, and real-time inspection systems help maintain compatibility with both flat and dome lids used in the beverage industry. For export markets, it is common to test lid fit against multiple lid suppliers to avoid mismatch issues in different regions.
