The We Can Source It Ltd – 500 x Kraft 12oz Ripple Cups offer a combination of features, with some trade-offs to consider for eco-friendliness and practicality. Here’s a breakdown to help you decide:
Pros:
- Bulk Quantity (500 Cups): Provides a large supply for a significant discount per cup, ideal for frequent use or large events.
- Multipurpose (Hot & Cold): Usable for various beverages, offering versatility.
- Triple-Walled Insulation (Claimed): The ripple design and potentially triple-wall construction can help keep hot drinks warmer and cold drinks cooler for longer compared to single-wall cups.
- 12oz Size: A common size suitable for most coffee and tea servings.
- Kraft Paper: Might be perceived as a more natural or eco-friendly option than traditional white cups (although all disposables have an environmental impact).
Cons:
- Disposable: Even with a larger pack size, they still generate waste compared to reusable mugs.
- Limited Reusability: While some claim recyclability, check with your local recycling facilities to confirm if they accept these cups due to the ripple design and kraft paper.
- Not Leakproof Guaranteed: Although disposable, spills can still happen, especially during travel.
- Large Quantity: 500 cups might be excessive if you won’t use them frequently.
Overall, the 500 pack of cups could be a good option for you if:
- You need a very large supply of disposable cups for hot or cold drinks at a low price per cup.
- Triple-walled insulation for better temperature retention in 12oz servings is important.
- You’re okay with generating some disposable cup waste, but prefer kraft paper.
However, if you:
- Prioritize minimizing waste: Reusable mugs are a more eco-friendly choice in the long run.
- Need absolutely leakproof cups for travel: Reusable mugs with secure lids eliminate spill risks.
- Want cups that are truly reusable: Look into reusable options specifically designed for multiple uses.
- Don’t need such a large quantity: A smaller pack might be more suitable.
Here are some additional things to consider:
- Recyclability: Check with your local recycling facilities to see if they accept these cups due to the kraft paper and ripple design, as these factors might affect their recyclability in some areas.
- Reusable Alternatives: Explore reusable mugs or tumblers made from stainless steel, ceramic, or glass for everyday use.
- Strength and Durability: Triple-walled cups offer more sturdiness, but they might not be as strong as a reusable mug.
- Claimed Insulation: Information about the specific insulation layer’s efficiency might be limited. It may not be as good as double-walled cups specifically designed for insulation.
I hope this helps you decide whether these disposable kraft paper cups are a good choice for you!

Kind Regards I am a caterer not a photographer. Please refer to my previous message and deal with the situation. I expect a full refund and a returns label so I can send the rest of your shoddy product back. I kept a few of the leaky cups and the ones stuck together which I will put in the parcel. I expect this matter to be dealt with today otherwise I will take it further. You are a business as am I and Customer Service is everything, so put it into practice. Dear Buyer
My apologies we have tested the stock in our warehouse unfortunately we did not find any problem with the order all seems to be ok with the cups. we need some sort of proof that the 250 cups whihc yo have used was leaking. we will need the leaking cups in order to send them to the supplier to investigate.i have already spoken to the supplier they have requested all the cups which is leaking and non leaking so they can check and replace the item if they found faulty.
If yo knew the cups were leaking why was 250 cups was used . they could have returned straight away. without opening the non used ones.. We need some sort of proof to send it to the supplier.
If you request a refund the supplier wants the item back. therefore please help us to solve this.
I look forward to hearing form you

YES – THIS REALLY WAS THE RESPONSE FROM EVER RICH!! Thankfully Amazon gave me a full refund. Seller’s like this should not be allowed to sell their shoddy products on the Amazon platform.
JUST DO NOT BUY FROM THIS COMPANY – YOU HAVE BEEN WARNED.
