Jiangsu Liangwang Technology Co., Ltd., one of the custom disposable plastic cup manufacturers serving export beverage programs, produces food-grade disposable plastic cups for beverage service, retail pre-fill and food-service distribution. Our range covers three material families — PP, PET and PLA — produced on German ILLIG thermoforming lines and flip-mold cup machines inside a Class 100,000 GMP purification workshop, with an annual production capacity of 20,000 tons.
We supply standard and custom formats to tea and coffee chains, bubble tea operators, dairy and dessert brands, and distributors across the United States, Japan, Canada and other markets. Every SKU is produced from virgin food-grade resin and covered by ISO9001, ISO14001, ISO45001, ISO22000 and BRC Grade A management systems.

PP Cups: Rigidity and Heat Tolerance
Polypropylene gives the cup structural stiffness that holds its shape under a full pour, and the smooth rounded rim delivers a clean drinking edge. We produce both standard tapered bodies and the U-shaped silhouette used for thick beverages such as milkshakes, smoothies and ice cream drinks.
- Capacities: 400ml, 500ml and 700ml food-grade PP material cups
- Transparent and BPA-free PP options for milkshake and dessert service
- Suitable for hot and cold beverage programs
- Custom logo printing, OEM sizing and ODM design supported
PET Cups: Cold Beverage Clarity
PET is the benchmark for cold beverage presentation. It delivers glass-like optical clarity and wall rigidity without the weight or breakage risk of glassware, and it resists deformation under condensation through distribution and service. Each cup carries recycling code 1 on the base for compatibility with standard collection programs.
- Five sizes: 8oz, 12oz, 16oz, 20oz and 24oz PET cold cups
- Formats from short espresso over ice to large specialty beverages
- Custom printing available in up to 8 colors via silk-screen or in-mold labeling
- Suitable for on-premise cold drinks and pre-filled retail products
PLA Cups for Restricted Markets
Our PLA line uses bio-based resin for transparent, BPA-free cups aimed at markets where single-use plastic restrictions apply. PLA sits alongside bagasse, wheat straw and bamboo fiber in our degradable material portfolio, and we match the material to the beverage condition, shelf-life expectation and local compliance requirement.
Manufacturing and Quality Control
Production runs on German ILLIG fully automatic thermoforming equipment and flip-mold cup machines. The Class 100,000 GMP purification workshop and in-house laboratory support consistent wall thickness, dimensional accuracy and rim quality across high-volume runs.
- Virgin food-grade resin input for every cup SKU
- ISO9001, ISO14001, ISO45001 and ISO22000 management systems
- BRC Grade A certification and FDA food-contact certification
- Planned annual capacity of 20,000 tons
Customization and OEM/ODM Programs
Our R&D team runs a six-stage customization process: needs communication, solution concept, mold manufacturing, sample testing, mass production, and quality control and shipping. We support custom sizing, branding, print requirements and unique body shapes, with a full design and sampling service for new product launches.
Cups can be paired with anti-scald sleeve designs, and our wider packaging range covers Eco-friendly Food Container formats where a beverage program also needs matching food packaging.
