What every sleeve has in Common
Waffle-Texture Insulation
Our patented waffle pattern (US Patent, 1995) traps thousands of tiny air pockets between hand and cup. The same insulation technology runs through every substrate.
Water-based Pantone Inks
FDA food-safe, water-based inks with full Pantone matching for accurate brand color reproduction. No solvents, no heavy metals.
Non-toxic Biodegradable Adhesives
Every seam is bonded with non-toxic, biodegradable glue. Safe for direct food contact and safe to compost or recycle with the rest of the sleeve.
Recycled Paper, Composting and Certifications
Every sleeve is made from recycled material, with up to 100% post-consumer recycled fiber. Every sleeve is recyclable where paper and corrugated packaging is accepted and is 100% compostable in a commercial composting facility. Local recycling acceptance varies; these claims do not promise home composting.
Select Original and Eco II sleeves are FSC-certified and BPI-certified compostable. Certification does not apply to every product. Contact us for certified product names, or read the ordering FAQ and artwork requirements.
