| Specification | Detail | Notes |
|---|---|---|
| Nominal Capacity | 16 fl oz | Equivalent to approximately 473 ml; typical for single-serve deli portions. |
| Volume (metric) | ~473 ml | Measured fill to brim; recommended fill for sauces/solids is ~85% to avoid spillage. |
| Primary Materials | Polypropylene (PP) — common; Polyethylene Terephthalate (PET) — alternative; PLA — compostable option | Material choice affects temperature tolerance, clarity, and end-of-life options. |
| Typical Unit Weight | Approx. 9–12 g (cup only) | Weight varies by wall thickness and material; value provided as typical range for 16 oz PP cups. |
| Recycling / Disposal | PP: Recycling code #5; PET: #1; PLA: Industrial compostable | Recyclability depends on local facilities; PLA requires industrial composting to meet standards. |
| Wall Thickness | ~0.30–0.45 mm | Common range for single-use deli cups balancing rigidity and material use. |
| External Dimensions | Top Ø: ~92 mm · Bottom Ø: ~64 mm · Height: ~95 mm | Measurements are typical and suitable for lids designed for 16 oz cups. |
| Lid Options | Flat snap-on, Domed snap-on, Tamper-evident snap lids | Flat lids are stack-friendly; domed lids allow extra headspace for dressings or small toppings. |
| Temperature Range | PP: −20°C to +120°C; PET: −40°C to +70°C; PLA: −10°C to +50°C | PP suitable for hot foods for short periods; PET less heat tolerant; PLA not for high-heat use. |
| Microwave / Dishwasher | PP: Microwave safe (short durations); PET: Not recommended; PLA: Not microwave safe | Always use microwave on moderate settings and monitor; lids may deform at high heat. |
| Leak Resistance | Medium (with proper snap-on lid) | Designed for semi-liquid foods and sauces; not guaranteed leak-proof under pressure or inversion. |
| Stackability | Yes — Nested stacking for cups; lids stack separately | Nested design optimizes storage and reduces shipping volume. |
| Manufacturing Tolerance | ±0.5 mm (typical) | Tolerance varies by tooling and material; critical for consistent lid fit. |
