EVERY EVENT FORMAT. ONE SUPPLIER.

Custom Event Cups
One factory, every format.

Festivals, weddings, conferences, sports fixtures, street food markets and brand activations all need different cups — and usually different suppliers. We mould the whole range in one UK factory, so a mixed order ships on one pallet.

FACTORY DIRECT

The UK's Home of
Sustainable Cups

Most event organisers end up with three suppliers: one for pints, one for wine, one for hot drinks. We mould pint, half pint, two pint, wine, cocktail and hot cups on the same site in Stockton-on-Tees, so a mixed specification is one order, one proof round and one delivery.

#1

I ordered reusable cups for my event and they were perfect. Great quality, durable, and the printing looked amazing. Guests loved them and they were a much better eco-friendly alternative to disposable cups. The ordering process was smooth and delivery was quick. I’ll definitely be buying again for future events.

Technical Overview

One Supplier for Every Cup an Event Needs

Custom event cups are printed reusable cups produced for a specific event rather than bought as generic stock. We mould the full range in one UK factory — pint, half pint, two pint, wine, cocktail and hot cups — which means a mixed specification comes from a single supplier instead of three.

That fragmentation is the problem most organisers actually have. The pints come from one supplier, the wine cups from another because the first does not make them, and the coffee cups from a third. Three lead times, three proof rounds, three deliveries and three invoices, all for what is conceptually one order of event cups.

Getting the specification right per drink matters more than most first-time buyers expect. Draught beer and cider need a UKCA-marked pint-to-line cup with headroom for a head. Soft drinks, cocktails and mixers work better in a pint to brim. Wine, prosecco and spirits sit properly in a 330ml half pint, and look mean in a pint. Coffee needs a double-walled insulated cup that fits a standard takeaway lid. One size does not cover an event drinks list.

Volume flexibility keeps the same supplier viable as an event grows. The minimum order is 50 units, which covers a wedding or a corporate away-day, and the same lines and pricing structure run past 100,000 units for festivals and venue roll-outs. Organisers who start small do not have to re-tender when the event doubles.

Everything else is handled once rather than repeatedly. Artwork is laid up on each cup profile in the order and proofed together, production runs in around 10 working days with a 48-hour express option on selected lines, and free UK mainland delivery puts the whole specification on one pallet.

Everything you need to know about our reusable stadium & event cups

Pint to line and pint to brim, half pint, two pint, stackable wine, 16oz cocktail and insulated hot drinks cups. All are moulded by us on the same site, so a mixed order is one supplier and one delivery.
Draught beer and cider need a UKCA-marked pint to line. Soft drinks, cocktails and mixers suit pint to brim. Wine, prosecco and spirits sit properly in a 330ml half pint. Coffee needs the double-walled hot cup. Send us your drinks list and we will spec it.
Yes, and most events do. Mixed orders are proofed together and shipped on one pallet. There is a print setup per design, so tell us the split when you ask for a quote.
50 units. That covers a wedding, a private party or a corporate event, and the same lines and pricing structure run past 100,000 units without changing supplier.
Standard production is around 10 working days from artwork approval, so two to three weeks ahead is comfortable once you allow for proofing. Selected lines are available on a 48-hour express service if the date has already moved.
If you are selling draught beer or cider by the pint or half pint, yes — that is a legal requirement. For soft drinks, cocktails and unmeasured servings it is not required, though plenty of events specify marked cups anyway for consistency behind the bar.
Yes. They are rated for 200 or more commercial dishwasher cycles and the print does not lift in a glasswasher, so organisers running a series of events routinely reuse the same stock across a season.
