In the modern world there are standards that all manufacturers adhere to. Thus, today are offered:
- glasses with a volume of 60 ml - 110 ml (produced from raw materials, the density of which ranges from 195 to 205 g / m2);
- products with a volume of 170 ml - 175 ml (cardboard with a density from 205 to 225 g / m2);

In addition, the density of the cardboard raw material is selected depending on the method of manufacturing paper utensils. If it is chosen for cold drinks, the thinner products will be the best solution, in the case of hot ones, dense options will do.
SEVERAL WORDS ABOUT THE FORM OF PAPER GLASSES
SUCH PRODUCTS CAN:

If cups are chosen for a cafe, it is better to choose models with a resealable lid, or a pen. Such models of dishes are relevant for institutions offering food and drinks to go.
You can also buy cups with special thermal covers, which will save the buyer's hands from burns, and the drink itself from instant cooling in a cold period of time.
Today offer paper cups with double bottom. Such products perform the role of a thermos.

When choosing paper cups, it is important to pay attention to how the bottom is created. Today, the connection of the bottom of the product with the walls can be done in two ways:
- connection of 3 layers along the wall, and at the end the capture of 5 layers in the joint zone. Products created by this method are more susceptible to leaks;
- compress all sides at the same time, thereby creating a uniform connection.

- hot drinks. These products are subject to lamination only in the inside. In addition, these walls slowly conduct heat, so that a glass of drink can be comfortably held in your hands. Products made for hot drinks should have a high density of cardboard;
- alcoholic beverages should be distinguished by the presence of external lamination, or not have such a coating at all, because alcohol dissolves thin plastic layers that subsequently enter the body;
- popcorn and fried potatoes (fries). These products are large in size. In this case, the density of the cardboard and the presence of lamination does not matter. The main thing is spaciousness;
- ice cream. In most cases, cups with bilateral lamination are used for this product. The cardboard can be dense, or average density;
- for first courses. Very often, paper cups of large volumes are used as a container for soups. Since these dishes are served to visitors in the hot form, then the requirements for the container should be presented as for containers designed for hot drinks.
