There are plenty of reasons why the paper cup manufacturing industry is growing. One of the main reasons, of course, its compatibility with nature vis-à-vis the plastic cups. They are the disposal types and end up in the landfill. The paper, however, decomposes in a shorter duration of time whereas plastic takes hundreds of years to degrade completely. The other reason for its growing preference is that it is more hygienic thereby reducing the chances of foodborne diseases. A paper cup making is made from food grade paper with the inners lined with either wax or plastic and is good for handling both hot and cold liquid.
Paper cups are products required for mass consumption and hence once established there are good chances of turning the paper cup business into a profitable one. Most of the international food chains and the Quick-service restaurants are using the paper cup and glasses to serve drinks which have made this industry more lucrative as a business option.
The business can be started on a small scale with a small time investment that is mainly required to buy the machine. One needs to have a space of about 500 sqft to set up the machine and start work. Paper cups can be made via a semi-automatic or a fully automatic machine. Also, on studying the market one can understand that two types of paper cups are in demand – one the normal paper cups that are available in different sizes and the other with the company name printed on the cups.
