Wholesale Paper Straws & Biodegradable Straws

This collection includes standard 8-inch paper straws with a 6mm diameter, bamboo paper straws, striped paper straws, cocktail straws, smoothie straws and stainless steel reusable straws depending on stock availability. The current live range includes 8-inch 6mm red and white paper straws, 8-inch 6mm bamboo paper straws and stainless steel straws, while some cocktail, smoothie and mixed colour paper straw lines may be out of stock.

Standard 6mm paper straws are useful for everyday cold drinks such as water, soft drinks, juices, iced tea, iced coffee, cold brew, cocktails and canned drink service. They are a good fit for cafés, restaurants, offices, bars, events, takeaway counters and hospitality venues where customers need a simple drinking straw for lighter drinks.

Wider paper straws, where available, are better suited to thicker drinks such as smoothies, milkshakes, frappés and slush drinks. These drinks need a larger bore to make drinking easier and help reduce clogging. Cocktail straws, where available, are shorter and designed for tumblers, short serves, mixed drinks and bar service.

Paper straws also offer a useful presentation choice. Red and white striped straws suit events, parties, retro drinks, milkshakes and casual cold drink menus. Bamboo-style paper straws offer a more natural look for cafés, juice bars, food-to-go counters and hospitality settings. Black cocktail straws can work well for bars, restaurants and evening drink service when in stock.

This range is designed for businesses buying straws in practical pack sizes rather than single retail packs. Packs of 100 and 250 are useful for small cafés, bars, offices, catering teams, events, parties and seasonal drink menus. For higher-volume service, ordering multiple packs helps keep your cold drink station stocked and ready.

When choosing straws, match the straw to the drink. Standard 6mm straws are suitable for most soft drinks and juices. Thick smoothies, milkshakes and frappés generally need a wider straw. Short drinks and cocktails may suit shorter cocktail straws. Reusable stainless steel straws can be useful where drinks are served and collected on-site.

This page is focused on straws for cold drink service. If you are building a full takeaway drink setup, Vending Superstore also stocks cold cups, slush cups, domed lids, hot cups, napkins, syrups, sauces and other foodservice disposables elsewhere on the site.

Whether you need paper straws wholesale for a café, biodegradable straws in bulk for events, 6mm paper straws for soft drinks, smoothie paper straws for thicker drinks, cocktail straws for bar service or reusable stainless steel straws for on-site use, this collection gives you practical options for cold drinks and takeaway service.
