The UK's Home of
Sustainable Cups

The UKCA line on a pint cup is a legal measure, and it has to be moulded in the right place to the right tolerance. We control the tooling and verify the fill line in our own factory, so the cups you serve from are compliant — not just labelled as though they are.

Why licensed venues choose our printed pint cups

#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

Pint to Line or Pint to Brim: Getting the Measure Right

Printed pint cups are the workhorse of any bar that cannot use glass. Ours are moulded from food-grade polypropylene in our own UK factory, branded with full-colour IML or screen print, and UKCA marked so they can legally be used to serve draught beer and cider.

The first decision is line or brim, and it matters more than most buyers expect. A pint to line cup holds 568ml at a moulded fill line set below the rim, leaving headroom for a head — that is the version you need for draught beer and cider under the Weights and Measures Act. A pint to brim cup measures 568ml or 625ml right to the rim, which is the correct choice for soft drinks, pre-mixed cocktails and anything served without a head. Serving draught into a brim cup and calling it a pint is where venues get into trouble.

The UKCA mark is the part that has to be right. It certifies the cup as a legal measure, and it depends on the fill line being moulded to a verified tolerance rather than printed on afterwards. Because we own the tooling and check the measure in-house before a batch ships, the cups you serve from are compliant in fact and not just in the product description — which is the difference that matters when Trading Standards walk in.

Durability earns its keep across a season. Every printed pint cup is shatterproof, dishwasher safe and rated for 200 or more commercial wash cycles, and the in-mould print is fused into the wall so it survives every one of them. For stadiums and festivals running glass-free, that combination is the whole point: no glass on the ground, no reprinting halfway through the year.

Ordering is deliberately flexible. Minimum order is 50 units for a beer garden trial or a private event, scaling to 100,000 units and beyond for stadium and festival roll-outs. Standard production is around 10 working days from artwork approval, with a 48-hour express service on selected lines and free delivery across the UK mainland.

Got Questions?

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

A pint-to-line cup holds 568ml at a moulded fill line below the rim, leaving room for a head — that is what you need for draught beer and cider. A pint-to-brim cup measures 568ml or 625ml right to the rim and suits soft drinks, mixers and cocktails where no head is wanted.
Yes. Our pint-to-line cups are UKCA marked, which is the requirement under the Weights and Measures Act for serving draught beer and cider as a pint. The fill line is moulded to a verified tolerance and checked before the batch ships.
It certifies the cup as a legal measure for selling alcohol by volume in the UK, replacing the older CE mark for this purpose. Without it, serving a pint of draught from the cup is not compliant. We cover this in detail on our UKCA marking page.
Yes. They are designed for commercial glasswashers and dishwashers up to 60°C and are rated for 200 or more cycles. Because they are light, use a rack or cage so they do not lift during the wash.
That is exactly what they are for. Polypropylene does not shatter, so stadiums, festivals and late-night venues use printed pint cups to run glass-free policies without dropping to single-use disposables.
50 units. That covers a beer garden trial or a one-off event, and the same lines run to 100,000 units and beyond for stadium and festival roll-outs.
Standard production is around 10 working days from artwork approval. Selected lines are available on a 48-hour express service, and delivery is free to UK mainland addresses.
Yes. We hold plain pint-to-brim and pint-to-line stock for venues that need cups immediately or want to trial before committing to a printed run. Plain stock ships far faster than a printed order.

Both Available

Pint To Line or To Brim

Pint-to-line gives a legal 568ml with headroom for a proper head on draught. Pint-to-brim fills to the rim at 568ml or 625ml, which suits soft drinks, cocktails and mixers where a head is not wanted.

Safer Venues

Shatterproof and Glass-Free

Polypropylene does not shatter, which is why so many stadiums, festivals and late-night venues run glass-free policies on plastic pint cups. Safer crowds, fewer incidents, less glass on the floor.
