Description
White paper half-pint tumblers with a clear cellulose window, supplied in a box of 500. A compostable, CE and UKCA marked paper half-pint tumbler for serving cold drinks at festivals, bars, clubs, sports events, music venues, outdoor events and licensed venues where a measured half-pint is required.
Made from FSC certified paper with an aqueous (water-based) lining. The clear cellulose window makes it easy to check the liquid level at a glance — useful in busy bars, festivals and events where staff need to serve quickly and customers want to see the drink level. Fully compostable. Also available in 568ml pint size.
Product Overview
These 284ml paper half-pint tumblers are designed for half-pint-to-line service. The UKCA and CE marking makes them suitable for measured drink service in licensed venues. The aqueous lining provides liquid resistance without a conventional plastic coating, and the FSC certified paper and compostable construction offer a practical alternative to traditional plastic half-pint cups for event and venue operators looking to move away from single-use plastic.

About Aqueous Lining
Aqueous lined cups use a water-based barrier coating instead of a traditional plastic lining. The lining helps the cup resist liquid while supporting improved composting or recovery options where suitable waste streams are available.
Why Does the Cup Have a Window?
The clear cellulose window makes it easier to check the drink level at a glance. This is useful in busy bars, festivals, clubs and events where staff need to serve quickly and customers want to see the drink level.
Sustainability and Disposal
These paper half-pint tumblers are made from FSC certified paper and feature an aqueous lining. They are fully compostable, offering a practical alternative to traditional plastic half-pint cups. Disposal options can vary depending on local waste facilities, so always check your waste provider’s guidance before placing used cups into composting, recycling or general waste streams.
