Price Match

These are compostable paper lids designed to fit Vegware's 79-Series range of hot cups. Made from sustainably sourced paper with a bio-based, moisture-resistant lining, they are a straightforward replacement for conventional plastic lids in a takeaway or counter hot drinks service.

In a busy café, canteen, or front-of-house setting, disposable lids go through stock quickly. A pack of 1000 gives reasonable run-time for most operations without constant reordering, and the pull-back tab design means customers can drink without removing the lid — a practical detail that reduces spills during service.

From an operational standpoint, switching to compostable packaging is increasingly expected by customers and, in some local authority areas, required under sustainability policies. Key practical points worth noting:

  • Compostable to industrial standards — requires commercial composting facilities, not general waste or home composting
  • Moisture-resistant lining maintains integrity under normal hot drinks use
  • Pull-back tab reduces lid removal and the associated mess at service points
  • Sold in cases of 1000, keeping storage straightforward for most operations

These lids are specifically sized for the 79-Series cup range. If you are running a different cup size or sourcing cups from another manufacturer, confirm the series sizing matches before ordering — lid and cup compatibility is the most common source of frustration with disposables procurement.

Well suited to cafés, workplace canteens, catering companies, and any operation running a takeaway or deskside hot drinks service where compostable packaging is part of the brief. If you are putting together a full compostable cup setup and want to confirm compatibility across your current cup stock, feel free to get in touch before placing a larger order.

Frequently asked questions

Will these lids fit cups from other manufacturers?

These lids are sized for Vegware's 79-Series cup range. The 79-Series is a recognised industry sizing, so they may fit other brands' cups in the same series, but compatibility is not guaranteed outside Vegware's own range. If you are running non-Vegware cups, check the cup series designation before ordering in bulk.

Can these lids be disposed of in a standard food waste or general waste bin?

No — compostable packaging of this type requires commercial or industrial composting facilities to break down correctly. It should not go into general waste or home compost. If your site does not have a commercial composting collection in place, it is worth confirming your waste contractor can accept this material before committing to compostable disposables.

How many lids should a busy café expect to go through per week?

That depends entirely on your takeaway cup volume. A small café serving 200 to 300 takeaway drinks per week would typically work through a case of 1000 in three to five weeks. Higher-volume sites — large canteens, event catering, or multi-outlet operations — may want to consider ordering in greater quantities to reduce procurement admin.
