Sample Cup FAQ's
What materials are Good Start Packaging’s compostable portion/sample cups made from?
Good Start Packaging’s sample cups are made from plant-based materials, such as sugarcane fiber (bagasse) or PLA bioplastic. They are compostable and free from traditional plastics and wax coatings.
Are these sample cups certified compostable?
Yes. Our compostable sample cups are certified compostable by trusted 3rd parties, ensuring they break down properly in industrial composting facilities. Portion cups made from plant fiber are also certified home compostable.
What sizes of compostable sample cups are available?
We offer a variety of portion-sized cups, like 1 oz, 2 oz, and 4 oz, which are ideal for tastings, samples, condiments, sauces, and other food-service needs.
Can these compostable sample cups handle both hot and cold items?
This depends on the material: sugarcane-fiber cups are good for cold or hot foods, while some PLA-based cups are less suitable for hot items. For example, similar 3 oz PLA sampling cups are made specifically for cold food or room-temperature sampling.
How should I dispose of these sample cups after use?
These compostable cups are meant to be sent to commercial composting facilities, where conditions allow for proper biodegradation. Because they’re plant-based and certified, they can break down efficiently under industrial composting conditions.
Are there matching compostable lids for sample cups?
Yes! We offer compatible lids made from compostable materials to pair with our sample cups, helping ensure a sustainable, leak-resistant option for serving and transport.
