As we’ve managed to source these disposable drinks carriers for a reduced price, we’re passing on the savings in the form of vastly reduced pricing on our website.

Biodegradable carriers are available as either a 2-cup carrier or a 4-cup carrier, perfect for use with hot or cold drinks and similar to the items you might encounter at a fast food burger franchise. The slots are compatible with our full range of paper coffee cups and due to the insulating properties of the fibre material, heat from single-wall paper cups will not cause discomfort when transporting drinks.

Our revised pricing is as follows:

• 4-cup carrier: £15.00 per case (180) / £8.95 per pack (90)
• 2-cup carrier: £15.00 per case (360) / £5.99 per pack (90)

These items are 100% recyclable and completely biodegradable. In addition, the raw materials used in the product of these products are completely sustainable. The recycled board can be recycled and reformed to make further molded pulp products. McDonalds are one of the biggest supporters of this cup carrier style, it allows flexible transportation of various drink sizes with minimal environmental impact.

We now give customers a choice of either a ‘value’ branded cup or a ‘premium’ squat non-vending cup.

The three main differences between these products are the item weight, the design / rolling of the cup rim and the base material. Our standard ‘value’ grade of squat cup has a weight of 2.5g, a semi-rolled rim and is made from PolyPropylene.  The more expensive ‘premium’ cup is made from thicker Polystyrene plastic (3.3g) and has a full tightly rolled rim.

Choosing the correct cup depends on its intended usage, customers simply looking to purchase an economical non-vend cup with squat proportions would be best served by the value item. This has a lower cost-per-unit and is perfect for high volume catering use. The thicker ‘premium’ cups are best suited to dental use where a tightly rolled rim is important, the thicker plastic also makes them resistant to spillages. Customers looking to use these cups in school water dispenses also tend to choose the ‘premium’ cup with a more tightly rolled rim.

Please see out water cooler cups category for pricing information on these items

Plastic Water Cooler Cups

This is a brand new reusable plastic Jug, primarily for use with cocktails. The capacity is 1.7L (3 pints) and is available either with or without the multifunction lid.

The ingenious lid can be used in 3 different positions; open, closed or ice filtering. The first 2 positions are fairly self-explanatory, but the third position is designed to prevent ice from passing from the Jug to the serving glass. This keeps all the ice in the pitcher and maintains the drink temperature.

Because of the tall shape of this item, you can also use it for chilling Wine when the lid is removed; the sides still allow sufficient space to fill the jug with ice.

As with all items in the ELITE Polycarbonate range – the product can be considered unbreakable (for all intents and purposes). The plastic is thick and strong, designed to replicate the appearance of glassware at the bar.

Each case contains 4 Jugs – now available from stock for next-day delivery. This is an ideal accompaniment to your Christmas celebrations, or simply as an extension of your existing barware inventory.

We’ve been able to lower the price on our round plastic deli pots thanks to a new lower price-point from our suppliers. The savings we’ve made have been passed on directly to our customers in order to offer better value for money across the range. The products are exactly the same, the only difference being the price!

The food pots have a huge variety of uses, from takeaway pots to storage containers. They can be purchased in sizes from 4oz to 16oz, and either with or without a lid (of which there are domed or flat options).

The 4oz pot is most commonly used as a sauce pot in the food to go environment. You’ll often see this style of container being used in Indian restaurants for Mango Chutney or Mint Yogurt dips. The 8oz portion pots can be used for larger portions of sauces or side orders. 16oz containers are more popular with side salads and accompaniments with takeaway meal deals.

Our portion pots are made from high-clarity PVC plastic, fully recyclable and Eco-friendly.

Although we will be continuing to stock a crystal styrene plastic soft drink glass with an 8oz capacity, a change in manufacturer means that we’re offering the current shape of glass at a promotional price until the stock is depleted. Once we’ve sold our current stock holding this product will revert to full price.

The special offer price of £38.99 applies to customers purchasing full case quantities of 1,000 cups, although you can still purchase smaller sleeves of 50 cups for the regular price of £3.02 per pack.

Crystal styrene offers the highest clarity available for disposable plastic tumblers; this avoids the semi-translucent appearance of some polypropylene items. The 8oz soft drink glasses are completely transparent.

As the range of double-wall mocha cups have been replaced by our triple-layer “ultimate” cups, we are now offering our remaining stock of the 16oz size at a clearance price. These cups originally retailed for £52.15 per case (500), however we are selling our clearance stock at the unbeatable price of £21.50 per case. This makes the double wall mocha cups the cheapest insulated 16oz cup by a large margin.

Building on the popularity of the single-wall mocha cups, the double wall variety features the same design so as co-ordinate with your existing cups. The main benefit over the single-wall cups is the greatly improved insulation, this means that even piping hot drinks will not burn your hands and drinks will stay hotter for longer.

We have limited stock available for this product; this is available on a first-come-first-served basis. Don’t miss out!
