Conventional coffee cup lids are typically made from polystyrene or polypropylene plastic, which persists in the environment for hundreds of years. Compostable lids break down in composting conditions, returning to organic matter rather than accumulating as plastic waste.

CPLA (Crystallised Polylactic Acid) is derived from plant starches, typically corn. It looks and feels like conventional plastic but is certified compostable in industrial facilities and many home composting systems. Paper lids go further by eliminating plastic-like materials entirely, appealing to customers who want a completely plastic-free option.

Pairing compostable lids with compostable cups creates a fully sustainable takeaway package. When disposed of correctly in commercial composting, the entire cup and lid break down together, diverting waste from landfill and supporting circular economy principles.

CPLA lids offer familiar plastic-like performance with secure snap-on fit and good heat resistance. They are certified compostable and suit operations transitioning from conventional plastic who want minimal change in handling. Paper lids eliminate plastic-like materials entirely, providing a fully fibre-based option that appeals to customers seeking maximum environmental credentials. Paper lids have a slightly different feel but perform well for hot beverages. Choose CPLA for familiarity and performance, or paper for maximum sustainability messaging.

CPLA stands for Crystallised Polylactic Acid. It is a plant-based material derived from corn starch that has been heat-treated to improve its heat resistance. CPLA looks and feels like conventional plastic but is certified compostable in industrial and home composting facilities.

These lids fit standard 80mm and 90mm diameter cups, which is the industry standard sizing. They are designed to pair with Zeropac aqueous coffee cups but will fit most cups with matching rim diameters. Check your current cup rim diameter to confirm compatibility.

Yes. Both CPLA and paper lids are certified for home composting as well as industrial composting. In a well-maintained home compost, they will break down over several months. Industrial composting facilities process them more quickly due to controlled temperature and moisture conditions.

Yes. Both CPLA and paper lids are designed for hot beverages and will maintain their integrity at normal coffee serving temperatures. CPLA is specifically crystallised to improve heat resistance compared to standard PLA.

Choose CPLA if you want familiar plastic-like performance and your staff are used to conventional lids. Choose paper if you want to offer a completely plastic-free option and maximise your sustainability messaging. Both are certified compostable, so the choice depends on your operational preferences and brand positioning.
