The Perfect Mid-Size Cup for Your Brand

A 12 oz cup feels just right in your hand. It’s the standard size for a medium coffee or a generous promotional drink. While thinner cups can get soft after just ten minutes of steam, ours stay strong from the first sip to the last. We’ve watched these cups perform well in busy places, from morning commutes to trade shows where first impressions matter.

Who Uses Our 12 oz Custom Cups?

  • Artisan coffee shops use our cups when they want a dependable paper cup that matches the quality of their coffee.
  • Corporate event planners choose our cups to bring a polished look to boardrooms and seminars.
  • Marketing agencies use our cups to turn product launches and pop-up events into opportunities for brand exposure.
  • Juice and smoothie bars rely on our special lining to keep cold drinks fresh and prevent cups from getting soggy.

Engineering a Better Drinking Experience

We do more than add logos. We focus on making reliable products. Our 12 oz cups have a strong base and a rolled rim that fits tightly with standard lids. You won’t have to worry about leaks or weak spots like you might with cheaper cups.

Versatility Beyond the Standard Coffee Pour

Many clients use these as their main coffee cups with lids, but the 12 oz size is also very versatile. If your business serves both hot and cold drinks, these cups work well for cold beverages too and stay sturdy even with ice and soda.

If your customers need more heat protection for very hot lattes, try pairing these cups with our custom sleeves for extra insulation. If you want a more textured look, our kraft paper cups have a rustic, natural style that appeals to eco-conscious customers.

Questions & Answers about 12 oz Paper Cups

We’ve answered the most common questions about logistics and design to help you find the best option for your business.

Are these cups recyclable?

Most of our 12 oz cups use a thin polyethylene lining to prevent leaks. Because recycling rules vary, we also offer a 100% compostable PLA-lined cup for brands that want zero waste.

Can I print my logo all the way around the cup?

Yes! We offer full-wrap printing. Unlike some brands that limit your print area, RCB lets you use the entire cup, including the bottom, if your design calls for it.

What is the minimum order quantity (MOQ)?

We work with both small boutiques and large franchises. Even though we specialize in bulk orders, you can start with just one unit, so startups can get professional branding too.

Do these cups fit in standard car cup holders?

Yes, the 12 oz cup is shaped to fit 99% of car cup holders, making it a great choice for to-go service.

How do I ensure my artwork doesn't look blurry?

Our design team checks every file. To keep your branding sharp and professional during printing, we recommend sending vector files like AI, EPS, or PDF.

Is the paper thick enough to hold without a sleeve?

For regular teas and coffees, our 12 oz cup is thick enough to hold comfortably. If you’re serving drinks at boiling temperature, we suggest using a double-wall cup or a sleeve for extra comfort.
