Every Calix cup is engineered for professional food service — PE alimenticio coating, zero-lid innovation, and certified food safety from raw paper to finished product.
PE Alimenticio Coating
Industry-standard PE coating provides excellent liquid barrier and heat sealing. Pure wood pulp base paper with no harmful chemicals.
Lidless Design
Integrated wing flaps fold to form a secure drinking spout — no lid needed. Only the barista and the customer interact with the cup.
Structural Integrity
Oil-resistant, heat-resistant, non-toxic, odorless. Unbleached with zero fluorescent agents. Industrial-grade paper stock.
Temperature Range
Certified for hot beverages up to 100°C and cold beverages. PE coating withstands prolonged contact with acidic, alcoholic, and fatty food simulants.

Pure Wood Pulp Paper: Unbleached raw paper stock with zero fluorescent agents. Structural integrity guaranteed across all 4 sizes (8oz–16oz).
Surface Treatment: Non-fluorescent, zero harmful chemicals. Oil-resistant, heat-resistant, non-toxic, and odorless — certified by independent accredited laboratories.

Sustainability
The lidless design removes the plastic lid from every drink. Calix Eco, a water-based (PE-free) barrier version, is in development.
Lidless Design
The lidless paper cup that eliminates plastic lids entirely. Integrated wing flaps fold to create a secure, spill-resistant drinking spout — no extra parts needed.
Fill the Cup
Pour hot or cold beverage as normal — coffee, tea, smoothie, soup.
Fold the Wings
Pinch and fold the integrated wing flaps inward toward the center.
Seal Forms Automatically
The folded wings create a secure drinking spout with spill resistance.
Drink Directly
No lid needed — sip from the formed spout. Cleaner, simpler, zero waste.
Cup + plastic lid + separate inventory + higher per-unit cost + plastic waste. Barista, lid dispenser, delivery driver, and customer all handle the cup.
Cup only — zero lids, zero separate inventory, lower per-unit cost, zero plastic lid waste. Only the barista and the end customer interact with the cup.
