Installation and Maintenance Guide
Using Your Lids
- Always check you are using a compatible 90mm Huhtamaki cup for a secure fit.
- Place the lid evenly on top of the cup rim.
- Press down firmly around the entire edge until you feel it click into place.
- Ensure the sip hole is clear before handing it to a customer.
Storing Them Properly
- Keep the lids in their original box and sleeve to protect them from dust and damage.
- Store in a cool, dry area, away from direct sunlight or sources of heat.
- Avoid storing in damp environments as moisture can cause the wood fibre to soften or warp.

You see 'compostable' on a lot of packaging, but what does it actually mean for your business? Think of it like a specific key for a specific lock. These disposable coffee cup lids wood fibre are designed for commercial composting facilities, not your garden compost heap. In these industrial sites, the combination of high heat, moisture, and microorganisms breaks the lid down completely into nutrient-rich soil within a set timeframe.

It’s a powerful way to close the loop, reduce your environmental impact, and give your customers a truly responsible way to dispose of their cup.
