"Switching to these Huhtamaki wood fibre lids was a brilliant move. They feel so much better than plastic, fit perfectly on our cups, and our regulars have noticed and love the change. It's a small detail that reinforces our brand's eco-friendly ethos."
Robert Davies – Owner

Installation and Maintenance Guide
Using Your Lids
- Always use compatible 80mm Huhtamaki cups for a secure, leak-proof seal.
- To fit, press down firmly and evenly around the entire rim until you feel it snap into place.
- Make sure to tell your customers the lids are compostable – it's a great selling point!
- The small sip-hole is designed to provide a smooth flow without splashing.
Keeping Them Pristine
- Keep lids in their original protective sleeve or a clean, dry dispenser until use.
- Store the box in a cool, dry area away from direct sunlight or moisture.
- Practise a 'first in, first out' stock rotation to ensure you're always using the freshest lids.
Frequently Asked Questions
Q: Are these lids really 100% plastic-free?
A: Yes, they are made entirely from natural wood fibre with no hidden plastic (PET) or plant-based plastic (PLA) linings whatsoever.
Q: Do they fit any 8oz cup?
A: They are precisely engineered for an 80mm diameter and are guaranteed to fit Huhtamaki's own Enjoy 8oz (CM573) and Pause 8oz (FB587) cup ranges for a perfect seal.
Q: Will they feel flimsy or get soggy with a very hot coffee?
A: Not at all. They are surprisingly rigid and designed to hold their shape and integrity for the entire duration of a typical hot or cold drink service.
Q: What does 'compostable' mean in practice for my business?
A: It means the lid can be disposed of in a commercial food waste bin, where it will break down into natural, non-toxic components in an industrial composting facility.
Q: Can I put these in my standard paper recycling bin?
A: Yes, these are widely recyclable with paper and card. However, composting is the most environmentally friendly disposal method if you have the facility.
Q: What is FSC certification?
A: The Forest Stewardship Council (FSC) is a global organisation that certifies that the wood fibre used comes from forests that are managed responsibly to meet social, economic, and ecological needs.
Q: Is there a sip-hole for drinking on the go?
A: Yes, they feature a conventional, well-designed drinking spout for customer convenience, making them ideal for any takeaway beverage.
Q: Are they suitable for iced drinks and smoothies?
A: Absolutely. Their sturdy construction holds up perfectly well with cold and iced beverages, providing a secure lid without issues from condensation.

Explore more from HuhtamakiWhat Makes 'Commercially Compostable' a Smarter Choice?
You often see the words 'biodegradable' and 'compostable' used interchangeably, but there's a key difference that makes these biodegradable coffee cup lids 80mm so special. Think of it like this: an apple core is biodegradable, but it's also compostable—it breaks down in a compost heap and enriches the soil. Some 'biodegradable' plastics just break into smaller pieces of plastic, which isn't helpful.
These Huhtamaki lids are 'commercially compostable'. This means that in an industrial composting facility, with the right heat and conditions, they break down completely into natural elements (water, CO2, and biomass) in a matter of weeks. They leave nothing harmful behind, turning your business's waste into useful compost. It's a true closed-loop system, unlike standard plastic or plastic-lined lids that end up in landfill for centuries.
Who Should Buy This?
- Independent Coffee Shops: Offer a truly guilt-free takeaway experience with these fully compostable, premium-feel lids.
- Mobile Caterers & Food Trucks: These sturdy, easy-to-stack lids are perfect for serving quality drinks on the move.
- Delicatessens & Bakeries: Elevate your drinks service with sustainable packaging that reflects the quality of your food.
- Event Organisers: A smart, eco-friendly choice for festivals and events, simplifying waste management and boosting green credentials.
