Useful, insulated cups for busy hot drink service

Ripple coffee cups are a smart choice for serving hot drinks to go. Also known as triple wall coffee cups or ripple wall takeaway cups, they use a corrugated outer layer to improve insulation and make the cup more comfortable to hold. That means fewer sleeves, less faff behind the counter and a better experience for customers carrying hot coffee, tea or hot chocolate.
