Applications of PET Deli Cups
StlPak PET deli cups can be used for a wide range of chilled and ready-to-eat foods. Different cup capacities, lid heights and insert tray combinations help buyers match the packaging to different portion sizes, ingredient structures and retail formats.
Fresh Cut Fruit Cups
Clear PET deli cups provide good visibility for fresh-cut fruit, mixed fruit and snack-sized fruit portions. Different cup depths allow buyers to match the container to the required filling weight while maintaining an attractive retail presentation.
Yogurt and Parfait Cups
PET deli cups can be used for yogurt, parfaits, granola and layered desserts. Selected insert trays can keep cereal, nuts, fruit or other toppings separated from the yogurt until serving, helping maintain the texture and appearance of different ingredients.
Salad Cups
Different capacities are available for vegetable salads, fruit salads, pasta salads and other chilled prepared foods. Deeper cups provide additional space for ingredients and toppings, while clear PET helps customers see the contents before purchase.
Snack and Dessert Cups
Deli cups can also be used for nuts, dried fruit, pudding, mousse, cakes, snacks and other ready-to-eat products. Different flat and dome lid options provide suitable headspace according to the food height and presentation requirements.
Custom Deli Cup Options
StlPak can support different deli cup packaging requirements through existing models and selected custom development projects. Available options include different cup capacities, depths, lid heights and insert structures for retail, food-processing and foodservice applications.
Our 117 mm deli cup series includes multiple capacities from 8 oz to 32 oz. Different cup bodies can be combined with compatible lid options, while selected shallow and deep insert trays can be used to separate toppings, sauces, dressings, granola, nuts or other ingredients from the main food.
PET and rPET material options can be evaluated according to the target market, packaging program and applicable requirements. For branded retail projects, StlPak can also support label areas, automatic labelling and selected printing solutions.
Where an existing model does not meet the required capacity, dimensions or food presentation, selected projects can be evaluated for custom mould development. Buyers are encouraged to provide the target food, filling weight, preferred dimensions, lid requirements, annual demand and sample images so that a suitable packaging solution can be assessed.
Why Choose StlPak for PET Deli Cups
StlPak provides a broad range of existing PET and rPET food packaging models, allowing buyers to compare different deli cup capacities, depths, lid structures and insert options without developing a new mould for every project. Our range supports supermarkets, food processors, fresh-cut fruit suppliers, distributors and ready-to-eat food brands.
The 117 mm deli cup series uses a common rim size across multiple cup capacities, helping customers use different cup depths within the same packaging program. Compatible lid and insert options also provide greater flexibility for fruit, yogurt, salads, desserts, snacks and other chilled food applications.
Our manufacturing capabilities include extrusion, thermoforming, printing and automatic labelling. Different projects can be evaluated for material selection, lid fit, stacking performance, label placement and carton loading. Samples are available for buyers to test actual filling weight, food fit, lid closure and retail presentation before bulk ordering.
For customers with ongoing packaging programs, StlPak can also support new-product evaluation and selected custom development. This allows buyers to expand their packaging range while maintaining suitable dimensions, material requirements and supply consistency.
How to Choose the Right Deli Cup
The right deli cup depends on the food type, target portion, ingredient height and retail presentation requirements. Smaller capacities may be suitable for fruit, yogurt, desserts and snacks, while larger cups can provide more space for salads, mixed foods and larger ready-to-eat portions.
Buyers should also consider the required lid structure. A flat lid can provide compact packaging for foods that do not require additional headspace, while dome lids provide more clearance for toppings, fruit pieces, desserts or other ingredients extending above the cup rim.
For foods with separate toppings or sauces, an insert tray can provide additional separation within the same package. Shallow or deeper inserts can be selected according to the required portion and the available internal space.
Packaging selection should not be based on stated capacity alone. Buyers should test the actual food, filling weight, ingredient height, lid closure, insert fit, stacking stability and refrigerated storage conditions before confirming the final model.

Deli Cup Performance for Filling and Distribution
For commercial deli cup packaging programs, container performance involves more than volume and appearance. The cups should separate easily during filling, provide consistent lid engagement and remain stable when stacked in cartons, cold storage and retail displays.
Different foods place different demands on the packaging. Fresh-cut fruit and salads may require sufficient internal space to avoid excessive compression, while yogurt, desserts and other soft foods require careful evaluation of lid fit and handling during transportation.
When insert trays are used, buyers should also check the available space between the main food, insert and lid. The correct combination should provide enough clearance without making the finished package unnecessarily large or unstable.
Before confirming a deli cup model, buyers should test the container with the actual filling weight, ingredients, lid or insert combination, refrigeration conditions and transport method. Stacking stability, lid closure, label placement and carton loading should also be evaluated to ensure efficient filling, distribution and retail handling.
Our deli cups are mainly manufactured from clear PET. Selected models and projects can also be evaluated in rPET according to the required recycled content, market regulations and order specifications. PET is suitable for chilled and ambient food packaging but is not intended for conventional oven use.
