Production Solution for 16oz Paper Cups for a Client in Panama

Client Background

Located in Latin America, Panama experiences high temperatures and heavy rainfall year-round. The local beverage market is dominated by iced coffee,

Why This Solution Is Suitable for Panamanian Customers

Market Suitability:
16 oz is the mainstream capacity for mid-to-high-end tea and coffee beverages in Panama, suitable for all scenarios including takeout, delivery, convenience stores, and cafes.

Durable Paper Material:
260gsm heavyweight paper is sturdier and more durable than ordinary paper cups, resulting in higher-quality finished products.

The double-wall 18g PE coating makes the cups suitable for cold beverages and prevents condensation from causing the cup to become soft and flimsy at low temperatures.

Wide machine compatibility:

The MYC-OCM22 high-speed intelligent model paper cup machine accommodates customer-specific grammage and dimensions. It supports production of paper cups ranging 

from 6–22 oz in size and 140–350 gsm in grammage, making it easy for customers to expand their product lines and produce cups of various sizes and weights.

High Production Capacity

The MYC-OCM22 operates at a speed of 70–80 cups per minute, delivering high-speed, stable performance to meet the bulk supply demands of the Panamanian market.

The integrated collecting table replaces manual collection and sorting, automating cup retrieval and organization. This not only boosts production efficiency but also 

reduces labor costs for customers.
