In short

Custom cup sleeves are printed paperboard bands that slide onto hot cups to protect hands from heat, and carry a logo or message on a plain cup. Box Sense supplies them from 10 sleeves, with production in 8–12 business days after proof approval. Shipping is free to any address in the USA.

About our cup sleeves

A cup sleeve is the cheapest way to brand a hot drink. Instead of printing every cup, a cafe buys plain cups and adds a printed sleeve, which also makes it easy to run seasonal designs, promotions or a QR code to a loyalty program.

We supply sleeves in kraft or white board that fit standard hot cups, printed in one color to full color, from 10 sleeves.

What affects the price of cup sleeves

Every box is made to order, so each order is quoted individually. These are the things that move the price most, in order:

  1. Board. Corrugated (ripple) sleeves insulate better and cost more than flat board sleeves.
  2. Print. One-color print on kraft is the most economical.
  3. Quantity. Sleeves are small, so unit prices drop quickly at volume.

Send your size, quantity and artwork through the quick quote form for a firm price within 24 hours.

Fit

Most sleeves fit 12, 16 and 20 oz hot cups, and a smaller size fits 8 oz cups. Cup shapes vary by maker, so send us your cup or its top and bottom diameters and we cut the sleeve to fit.
