Future-proof packaging: securing your orders in times of change

The cardboard and packaging industry is facing rapid change. European regulations on single-use products, coatings and recyclability are becoming stricter every year. This creates uncertainty, but also opportunity, especially if you have a partner who takes care of the complexity for you.

At CUPSZ we stay ahead of these developments. Our team continuously monitors upcoming EU legislation and invests in innovation long before new rules come into force. By researching alternative coatings, developing plastic-free solutions and using FSC® certified cardboard, we create packaging that already meets tomorrow’s standards.

Future-proof packaging is not just about compliance. It’s about making sure you don’t have to worry. Because we produce everything in-house in the Netherlands, from 250 cups or 1000 buckets upwards, we guarantee fast turnarounds and order security with packaging that is compliant, reliable and ready to ship.

For partners in every industry, this approach offers peace of mind. Whether you need cups, bowls, buckets or accessories, CUPSZ ensures that every product combines food safety with sustainability and regulatory readiness. By choosing a supplier that looks ahead, you can focus on your business while we take care of your packaging.

With CUPSZ, you’re not just ordering packaging for today. You’re all set with packaging that keeps performing in a rapidly changing industry.

Continuous innovation across our product range

At CUPSZ, innovation means making packaging more sustainable every day. Our cups, bowls, buckets and other solutions are developed with eco-friendly cardboard, reduced plastic content and recyclable coatings. By testing and improving constantly, we create sustainable food packaging that is safe for direct food contact, leak-resistant and easy to recycle.

This focus on sustainable cardboard packaging ensures compliance with EU regulations on single-use products, while also giving resellers and wholesalers packaging that supports eco-friendly business. From plastic-free coating research to FSC® certified materials, every product is designed to combine durability, recyclability and full-colour custom printing.

And because production is local, with short supply chains and predictable delivery, you never lose time waiting for overseas shipments. That way your packaging is always future-ready, without the headaches.
