The growth in consumption of cappuccino and latte style drinks in the high street has been mirrored in the vending market. This has led to a growth in paper vending cup usage to create a more premium beverage offering. Huhtamaki, for example, has developed a 12oz paper-vending cup, which is a great way of boosting profit, and allows customers to upsize their choice of hot drink without having to leave their building.
The new cup offers improved insulation and is sturdy and comfortable to hold. It is claimed to be ideal for vending operators, and is excellent for those wishing to consume drinks at their desk or on-the-move. The cup can also be fitted with a tight-fitting, sip-thru lid to help prevent spillages.
Whether it is vending services found in leisure facilities, office buildings or contract catering facilities, vended drinks need to meet customer expectations, often by mirroring the quality of service found on the high street. Vending has seen a move towards premium offerings whether that's the beverage or the packaging enhancing the presentation of vended offerings, and offering a premium service. Paper vending cups can also be custom printed so customers can appreciate the brand they're drinking.
Huhtamaki's range of paper-vending cups offers premium presentation, and has improved insulation to help reduce heat transfer. In addition to the newly added 12oz size, four other sizes are available - 7oz tall, 7oz squat, 9oz tall and 9oz squat. All are available in stylish designs, but can also be custom-printed.
To prevent damage whilst in transit or storage, the top of each stack of vending cups includes a bright yellow ‘safety cup' - which should be removed prior to the stack being placed in the vending machine and discarded with the cellophane outer. This helps protect the products for a smooth vend before they reach their final destination, the vending machine.
