Beverage cup packaging for international B2B buyers

PET CUP RANGE / 16OZ

16oz PET Cups

16oz PET Cups are available in 500ml, 520ml and 600ml formats, with rim options from 90mm to 117mm. Instead of treating 16oz as one fixed cup shape, buyers can compare taller standard profiles, U-shaped cups and a wide, low-profile 117mm option. Use the actual dimensions and rim specification to narrow the choice for your cold beverage or custom packaging project.

16oz PET Cups OVERVIEW

500 / 520 / 600 ml options in one capacity group

Choosing a 16oz PET cup starts with more than nominal capacity. The 90mm options provide a narrower format, while the 95mm and 98mm variants give buyers additional rim and profile combinations within the 500–520ml range. Standard and U-shaped cups also differ in height and bottom diameter, so projects using the same “16oz” description may still require different cup dimensions.

The 117mm variant is a separate format within this group: at 600ml capacity, 117mm top diameter and 75mm height, it is substantially wider and lower than the 90–98mm alternatives. Buyers considering this option should compare its presentation and required rim separately rather than treating it as interchangeable with the taller 16oz profiles.

PET material considerations

Review the selected PET cup for the intended beverage format. Confirm service conditions and documentation for the product; the measurements alone do not establish performance limits.

COMPARE CUP FORMATS

16oz PET: shape and rim choices

The oz group is a starting point. Compare actual ml, rim, base and height before choosing a cup.

Standard

Compare the listed height and base diameter for the intended serving and packaging format.

U-Shape

Review the alternative base and body dimensions alongside the standard option in the same capacity group.

Wide format

Review the 117 mm opening and the listed dimensions. A shared wide rim does not mean every cup has the same volume or height.

Read the measurements together

Nominal oz / listed ml
Variants in one oz group may have different listed ml capacities. Use the individual record for your brief.
Rim and closure
Select a cup first. Confirm the lid style and physical fit against that cup; diameter alone is not a compatibility guarantee.
Height and base
Compare the footprint and profile against your presentation and packaging requirements. A dash means the measurement is not listed.
Branding and order
Include artwork needs, quantity and destination when known. Commercial terms and product documents need project-specific confirmation.

LID OPTIONS

Review lid families by selected rim.

Lid options can be discussed by rim family. The final cup-and-lid match should be confirmed against the exact variant, rather than assumed from nominal capacity alone.

90 mm

90 mm lid families are documented across multiple lid styles.

95 mm

95 mm PET direct-drink and dome-style lid records are available.

98 mm

98 mm PET direct-drink and cross-style lid records are available.

117 mm

117 mm lid records are listed for the cup family.

CUSTOM CUPS & BRANDING

Build a cup brief around the selected variant.

Ruige’s packaging manual presents custom packaging and printed cup examples. Share the size, selected rim, artwork and beverage format so project-specific options can be reviewed.

APPLICATIONS

16oz formats in a beverage program

Representative 16oz PET cold beverage application
01

Milk tea menus

For milk tea projects, compare the cup profile as well as nominal capacity. The available 90–98mm standard and U-shaped variants give buyers different height and bottom-diameter combinations, while the 117mm wide-low format represents a distinctly different presentation. Confirm the selected format with a project sample before finalizing the cup and lid combination.

02

Iced coffee servings

For iced coffee, the 500ml and 520ml variants provide several rim and profile combinations within the 16oz group. Buyers can compare the actual height, top diameter and profile against the intended drink presentation rather than selecting by “16oz” alone.

03

Fruit tea and juice

Fruit tea and juice projects may require different presentation formats even at a similar nominal serving size. Compare the narrower 90mm options with the 95mm and 98mm variants, or review the 117mm wide-low 600ml format separately when a broader cup presentation is required.

FAQ

16oz PET Cups: buyer questions

Why are 500ml, 520ml and 600ml cups all listed in the 16oz PET range?

The 16oz page groups commercially related cup options rather than defining 16oz as one exact milliliter specification. The listed variants range from 500ml to 600ml and differ in rim diameter, height, bottom diameter and profile. Buyers should therefore use the individual variant specifications when selecting a cup.

What is the difference between the standard and U-shaped 16oz PET cups?

The listed standard and U-shaped variants use different dimensional profiles. For example, the 90mm standard 500ml cup is 135mm high with a 56mm bottom diameter, while the 90mm U-shaped 500ml cup is 125mm high with a 45mm bottom diameter. Compare the individual dimensions rather than assuming the two profiles are interchangeable.

How is the 117mm 16oz PET cup different from the other options?

The 117mm option is a 600ml wide, low-profile cup measuring 75mm in height with a 96mm bottom diameter. The other listed 16oz variants use 90mm, 95mm or 98mm rims and taller profiles. It should therefore be evaluated as a separate format when comparing presentation and rim requirements.

Should I choose a 16oz PET cup by capacity or rim size first?

Start with the requirements of the beverage packaging project, then compare both actual capacity and rim size. The current 16oz range includes 500ml, 520ml and 600ml capacities with 90mm, 95mm, 98mm and 117mm rims, so nominal ounce size alone is not enough to identify the required cup.

Can I discuss a custom 16oz PET cup brief?

Yes. Share the selected size, rim or profile, artwork requirement and packaging brief. Share the cup option, artwork requirement and packaging brief for a focused quotation.
