Injection moulding, not vacuum forming
These items are moulded rather than formed and brazed, which is why they are lighter and cheaper per piece — and why there is no insulation claim to make about them.

Plastic Bottle & Cup: How To Pick The Right One
The full published ladder for this range — every model, what can be changed on it, and what is different about making it. For the filtered, sortable shop view, use the range listing.
Option Matrix
What Can Be Changed On This Range
Every row is read from the models’ own specification records rather than written here, so where two models in the range differ the difference is printed instead of being averaged into a claim that fits neither.
| Models published | 2 in this range |
|---|---|
| Capacity ladder | — |
| Body material | Food-grade PP / BPA-free plastic |
| Construction | Double-wall vacuum insulated |
| Logo methods | Silk screen, laser, emboss, TTO, UV, water transfer |
| Colour matching | Any Pantone colour, powder coat / matt / gloss |
| Lid options | See catalogue page 30 for the lid set supplied with this mould · See catalogue page 31 for the lid set supplied with this mould |
| Packing | White box / colour box / PDQ / mailer — to spec |
| Minimum order | From 500 pcs per colour |
| Sampling | 3–7 days for stock or lightly decorated samples |
| Production | 10–25 days after sample approval |
Where a row says "varies by model", two or more models in this range publish a different answer. The individual answer is on each model’s own page, and the exact configuration you order is confirmed on the quotation.
The Full Ladder
Every Model In This Range, Side By Side
Describing the whole range rather than the first page of it. Capacity, height and diameter are what eliminate models fastest, so they lead the table; the catalogue page number is there so this can be read beside the printed catalogue.
| Model | Capacity | Height | Diameter | Lid as listed | Catalogue |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| HD0029 | 500ml / 16.9oz | — | — | See catalogue page 30 for the lid set supplied with this mould | Page 30 of the 2026 Everchill catalogue |
| HD0030 | 600ml / 20.3oz | — | — | See catalogue page 31 for the lid set supplied with this mould | Page 31 of the 2026 Everchill catalogue |
Sizes are the catalogue’s own figures for each item as listed. The height column repeats the printed "size at this capacity"; the per-capacity ladder for a model sold at several sizes is on that model’s own page, drawn to scale.
On The Floor
What Is Different About Making This Range
Two models can share a capacity and a material and still be different jobs. These are the differences that decide the tooling, the lead time and sometimes the price.
The material grade is the whole specification
Food-grade PP is the working material, and the grade is verified on incoming material the same way the steel grade is.
Weight is the reason to choose it
Where the shipping plan is limited by weight rather than by volume, a plastic item moves the maths in a way a stainless body cannot.
The tooling is a mould, not a drawing
A plastic body lives or dies on its mould, so a change to the shape after the tool is cut is a new tool rather than an amendment.
Compliance
Which Standard Applies To This Range
The standard follows the destination market rather than the product, so the same model can need a different document set depending on where it is sold. What is listed here is what each market requires — the applicable set is confirmed against your item number.
| United States | FDA food contact + California Prop 65 |
|---|---|
| European Union | LFGB + EU 1935/2004 + REACH SVHC |
| United Kingdom | UK food contact material regulations |
| Japan / Korea | Local food-contact compliance on request |
Buyers
Who Usually Starts In This Range
- Brand owners who need a repeatable shade and a re-order that does not re-pay setup.
- Importers who need the carton and the loading plan settled before they price the freight.
- Retail buyers who need the height to fit a bay.
- Sample and mockup options — the cheapest way to settle a brief.

Before You Order
Questions This Range Raises
Which plastic bottle & cup model should I choose?
Start from the constraint, not the model: the volume it has to carry, the height or the diameter the shelf or the cup holder allows, and whether the outside will be held. The manufacturer guide for this range prints capacity, height and diameter for all 2 models, which is the fastest way to eliminate the ones that cannot work before comparing the ones that can.
What can be changed on any item in this range?
Logo, body colour, surface finish, lid and packing — on every model. Where two models in the range publish a different answer, the difference is printed rather than averaged into a claim that fits neither. Nothing in this catalogue is fixed at the colour it is photographed in.
What is the minimum order for this range?
From 500 pcs per colour. The minimum applies per colour and per logo treatment, so a two-colour programme counts as two minimums. Below that the honest answer depends on the body and the decoration — ask, and we will tell you what the tooling allows rather than quote a number we cannot hold.
How long does a programme in this range take?
Sampling is 3–7 days after the artwork and the specification are settled, and production is 10–25 days after sample approval. On this range the specification means the body, the decoration method, the lid and the pack together — the sample clock starts when those are settled, not when the enquiry arrives.
Which compliance documents apply to this range?
It follows the destination, not the product. FDA food-contact and California Prop 65 cover the United States, LFGB with EU 1935/2004 and REACH SVHC cover the European Union, UK food-contact rules cover the United Kingdom, and Japan and Korea are handled on request. The applicable set is named against your item number rather than sent as a generic pack.
Can you make a body that is not in this range?
Yes, and most of what ships is not a catalogue item. Send a drawing, a sample photograph or a competitor link and we will say what it would take. A new body means tooling, and tooling is a one-time charge quoted from the drawing rather than posted.
Are the plastic items food-safe?
They are made from food-grade PP and the incoming material is verified against the purchase specification, the same as the steel. Compliance documents are provided per product and destination market rather than as a generic pack.
Why would I choose plastic over stainless steel?
Weight and unit cost, in that order. There is no insulation claim on a plastic item, so the choice is made when the programme is a volume give-away or when the shipping plan is weight-limited.

Quantity, the constraint it has to fit and the destination market is enough for us to come back with a real answer rather than a brochure.
