Why Choose Our Standard Corrugated Coffee Sleeves?
Our standard corrugated coffee sleeves provide cost-effective branding with reliable performance. The 2-layer corrugated construction creates an air pocket that insulates hands from hot beverages while maintaining sleeve integrity during busy service.
Choose white or kraft-simulated paper for the printed side—both accept crisp 1 or 2 color prints that highlight logos and messaging. Full background printing is not permitted, keeping costs low and production simple. With a minimum order of 2500 at $281, these sleeves suit growing businesses needing professional presentation on a budget.
This economical option doesn’t compromise on functionality. The kraft corrugated fluted back adds natural texture and strength, preventing crushing even during peak hours. Baristas appreciate the secure grip, and customers stay safe from burns.
Unlike single-ply sleeves that tear or compress, these maintain shape from first pour to final disposal. For brands prioritizing clarity and consistency, 1 or 2 color printing delivers sharp results on matte stock—ideal for high-contrast logos, taglines, or icons.
