Our disposable airline cups are crafted from a high-quality polystyrene (PS) material that is known for its excellent temperature resistance properties. Here's how the material stands up to high temperatures:

Heat Resistance: Polystyrene is capable of withstanding temperatures up to 75°C (167°F) without significant deformation or leaching of chemicals. This makes it suitable for serving a range of hot beverages such as coffee, tea, and hot chocolate.

Stability: The material maintains its structural integrity when exposed to hot liquids, ensuring that the cup does not become weak or unstable, which could lead to spills or discomfort for the user.

Safety: The heat resistance of PS ensures that the cup is safe to hold even when filled with hot beverages, reducing the risk of burns.

However, it is important to note that while PS is heat resistant, it is not designed to withstand the temperatures of boiling water or the extreme heat of a microwave. Therefore, it is not recommended to use these cups with liquids at boiling temperatures or to microwave them.

For serving extremely hot liquids, such as those just off the boil, it is advisable to use additional insulation, like a cup sleeve or to allow the liquid to cool slightly before pouring it into the cup.

In conclusion, our disposable airline cups are an excellent choice for serving a variety of hot beverages due to the material's heat resistance properties, providing both safety and convenience for your customers.
