284ml Clear rPET Half Pint Cups – 1 x 1,000
The 284ml Clear rPET Half Pint Cup is a transparent disposable plastic cup for suitable cold drinks in cafés, restaurants, bars, events and takeaway catering. It has a nominal capacity of 284ml, approximately one UK half pint, and comes in a carton of 1,000. Material: rPET plastic. Colour: clear. Product SKU: CCUP033-5.
Clear presentation and everyday practicality
Transparent rPET makes the colour and fill level of a chilled beverage visible. Whether serving water, juice or a soft drink, staff can see the finished drink at the preparation counter. This is a single-use foodservice cup, not reusable glassware; no claim of insulation or leakproof performance is established.
A café may use this for a smaller juice or iced drink, while an event counter may offer it as a half-pint-style cold refreshment option. Choose the serving size according to the actual recipe, especially when ice, fruit slices or garnish take up space. The nominal capacity does not automatically equal the exact liquid volume poured into a prepared drink.

Recommended use in hospitality and catering
Cafés and restaurants
This 284ml cup can be considered for smaller juice servings, chilled water, cold soft drinks and catered refreshments. Choose a defined drink recipe and test the practical fill line, ice allowance and customer handoff. The clear wall makes drink presentation visible, but it is not a certified measuring device.
Event catering and outdoor concessions
Food trucks, hospitality venues, kiosks and event service points may use disposable cups where glass is not part of the service plan. Confirm venue material rules, permitted drink types and waste collection requirements. The name pint or half pint does not independently establish legal serving approval.
Takeaway and collection
If drinks must travel, confirm the actual cup rim and any intended lid under movement, waiting and transport conditions. No lid model is specified as included with this product. Staff should avoid overfilling, squeezing the walls or stacking cups that already contain drinks.
Nominal cup capacity versus licensed measures
The stated volume of 284ml is approximately a UK half pint. UK requirements may prescribe verified or marked measures for certain drinks, particularly regulated sales. This product listing does not confirm official measurement stamps, verification or legal approval.
For ordinary non-regulated chilled beverage service, a tested recipe helps determine headspace after ice, fruit and other additions. When a legal measure is required, use the appropriate approved measuring process or vessel rather than relying only on the advertised nominal cup capacity.
Lid compatibility and handling
A precise rim diameter and compatible closure are not documented for this SKU. Before choosing a lid, measure or test the actual cup, including the shape of the rim. Similar-looking cups can have different profiles, and a matching nominal volume is not proof of a secure seal.
Use the cup only with appropriately chilled drinks. Do not assume that rPET is safe for boiling coffee, tea, reheating or microwave use. Keep unused cups in clean, dry storage away from excess heat and direct sunlight. Check cups for damage before filling.
rPET plastic and disposal
rPET is plastic, not compostable paper. The product record does not confirm a recycled-content percentage or third-party compostability certification. Disposal and recycling depend on local collection facilities, drink residues and sorting instructions; follow the guidance relevant to your area.
