Four-cup carriers: pocket fit, balance and stacking
A beverage carrier is judged in the sixty seconds between the counter and the car. If the cups tilt, if the carrier flexes when it is picked up one-handed, or if two carriers will not stack, the operator stops using it.
This carrier holds four cups in a single pressed fiber part, with the geometry working on three fronts:
- Cup pocket interference tuned to the cup base diameter, so a cup enters with a push and does not rattle once seated.
- Rim stiffness from the pressed wall, so the carrier keeps its shape when carried by one corner with four full cups.
- Stacking shoulders between carriers for counter storage, and a flat base for the tray or bag.
- Finger clearance under the rim for a quick single-hand lift.
Cup formats commonly covered are 8 oz, 12 oz, 16 oz and 20 oz single-wall and double-wall cups, plus 4-cup and 2-cup variants from the same tool family. The carrier is unprinted for a natural look or printed with a café mark, and it goes into the paper stream with the cups.
MOQ is 10,000 pieces per design; tooling 7–15 days; production 15–25 days after sample approval. Send the cup dimensions and the format you need - or see the food and beverage packaging range.
