Custom Flat Lids
Low-profile lids that stack and travel cleanly
Starting around$0.050/eaConfigure for your priceFlat lids are the low-profile closures used on cold cups for iced coffee, juice, smoothies, and fountain drinks. Their profile sits almost flush with the cup rim, which gives you two practical wins: cups stack more compactly, and the closed drink presents as a clean cylinder rather than a domed shape — which is what you want when the drink itself is the visual.

About Custom Flat Lids
Flat lids close a cold cup with a shallow, near-flush profile. Compared with a dome lid, they reduce the overall height of the drink, which matters more than it sounds: stacked cups take less counter space, delivery bags hold more, and the closed cup reads as a clean, even cylinder.
That last point is a design advantage. A domed lid adds a rounded shape above the cup, which competes visually with the artwork on the cup wall. A flat lid keeps the silhouette of the printed cup intact, so the brand treatment on the wall stays the thing the eye lands on.
Flat lids are typically used for drinks with a straw — iced coffee, juice, smoothies, soda — rather than for drinks where a sip opening or topping headroom is needed.
Sizes & Compatibility
Lid sizing is nominal, and a lid from one supplier will not necessarily seat correctly on a cup from another even when both carry the same size label. For that reason fit is confirmed against your actual cup before manufacturing.
| Cup Size | Typical Drink | Lid Type |
|---|---|---|
| 12 oz | Small iced drinks, juice | Flat |
| 16 oz | Standard iced coffee, smoothie | Flat |
| 20 oz | Smoothie, milk tea, fountain drink | Flat |
| 24 oz | Large iced drinks, iced tea | Flat |
| 32 oz | Sharing size, fountain drinks | Flat |
| Other sizes | Tell us your cup and we will confirm availability | Confirmed with quote |
Why Fit Is Confirmed, Not Assumed
A cold cup lid that does not seal properly leaks — in the customer's hand, in the car, in the delivery bag. Because nominal sizes vary between manufacturers, a lid is only confirmed as compatible after it has been matched to the actual cup it will be used on.
- Tell us your cup size, or send a cup and we will match to it.
- Ordering lids with cups removes the compatibility question entirely.
- Lids are manufactured as a matched set with your cups when ordered together.
- Straw compatibility is confirmed alongside the lid where relevant.
Printing & Options
A lid is a small surface, but a printed one is visible every time the cup is closed — which on a takeout or delivery order is most of the time the customer has it.
- Logo printing on the lid face.
- A repeated or patterned mark across the lid.
- Brand colour matching — colour-matched lids with no logo.
- Straw slot configurations confirmed with your cup.
Flat vs Dome
Flat lids suit drinks served with a straw and situations where stacking and a clean profile matter. Dome lids provide headroom above the drink, which is needed for whipped cream, boba, or any topping that sits above the rim.
If your menu includes both straw drinks and topped drinks, the two lid styles can be ordered together in one project with matched branding.
How Pricing Works
Custom packaging is quoted per project rather than sold at a list price, because the cost depends on the material, the size, how much print coverage your artwork uses, any additional features, and the quantity you run.
Larger runs lower the cost per unit, which is why we quote across volume tiers instead of a single flat figure. Submit your configuration and a specialist returns pricing for your exact combination, including what the price covers — product, printing, accessories, freight, and artwork setup.
Minimum Order Quantity
Minimum order quantity varies by product and specification, and is confirmed with your quote. It depends on the material, the size, and the print setup your artwork requires — a run that shares a plate or a die can start smaller than one that does not.
Tell us your target quantity in the configurator and we will confirm the actual minimum for your build.
Artwork Requirements
For the cleanest print result, supply vector artwork. Vector files scale to any size without losing edge quality, which matters when the same logo prints across a range of products in your line.
- Preferred: AI, EPS, SVG, or PDF — vector formats.
- Acceptable: PNG or JPG at high resolution.
- If you only have your logo, we can prepare the packaging layout for you.
- A color reference — hex code, Pantone number, or a physical sample — helps us match accurately.
Production & Delivery
This product is custom manufactured after you approve the design and pricing — it is not pulled from stock. The sequence is: configure your specifications, receive a free digital mockup, approve the design and pricing, manufacturing begins, then the completed order is delivered nationwide.
Production timing and freight depend on the product, quantity, and your delivery location, so they are confirmed as part of your quote rather than estimated here.
Reordering
Because your specifications and approved artwork are recorded against your order, reordering is a matter of confirming your previous configuration and quantity — you do not need to rebuild the specification from scratch. Tell a specialist you are reordering and reference your previous project.

Production Time and Shipping Time Are Different
Production time is the time required to manufacture your packaging. Transit time is the time required to transport it to you. These are separate — a production window is not a delivery date, and every project's timeline is confirmed with your final quote.
Express
Best when speed matters most. Faster transportation may be available depending on the product, quantity, manufacturing location, shipment size, destination and carrier availability. Express transportation can cost significantly more than standard, and an exact transit time is confirmed with your freight quote.
Standard
Best when you want a balance between delivery cost and transit time. Standard freight is generally the more economical option when your schedule allows additional flexibility. Actual transit time and freight cost are confirmed with your final quote.
Large-volume freight
Larger orders are not handled as ordinary parcel shipments. Depending on size and destination this may involve palletized freight, LTL, air, ocean, partial-container (LCL) or full-container (FCL) arrangements. YaSeen determines the appropriate method for your actual project and quotes it accordingly.
Not sure
If you are unsure, our team will recommend the option that best fits your deadline, quantity and destination once your project has been reviewed.
