FAQs

What are 9oz cups typically used for?

9oz cups are commonly used in vending machines, office coffee areas, self-service beverage stations and workplace refreshment spaces. They suit machine-dispensed coffee, tea, hot chocolate and other drinks, provided the cup is compatible with the equipment.

Can I buy 9oz cups in bulk for my business?

Yes. Business Beverages supplies 9oz cups in trade-sized packs, with bulk boxes available for selected products. They are well suited to offices, vending businesses, workplace refreshment areas, leisure venues and facilities teams.

Can 9oz cups be used in vending machines?

The 9oz cups in this Business Beverages range are made for use in vending machines and automatic hot-drink systems. Before ordering, check the product title, cup material, rim diameter and your machine’s specifications to ensure compatibility.

What does 73mm refer to on a 9oz vending cup?

On a 9oz vending cup, 73mm is the diameter of the cup rim. This measurement matters for vending machines, as their cup-drop systems are designed for specific cup diameters.

Using cups with the incorrect rim diameter may lead to dispensing problems or cup jams.

Is a 9oz cup larger than a 7oz cup?

Yes. A 9oz cup holds more than a 7oz cup, making it a suitable choice for workplaces, cafés and vending areas that serve a more generous hot drink portion.

Can Business Beverages supply 9oz paper cups for vending machines?

Yes, Business Beverages supplies 9oz paper vending cups suitable for compatible vending machines.

Can I buy 9oz plastic cups for vending machines?

Yes. Business Beverages supplies tall 9oz plastic vending cups for compatible vending machines. Please check the individual product details and your machine specifications before placing an order.

Can I order lids to fit 9oz cups?

Yes, Business Beverages supplies white sip-through lids for selected 9oz paper vending cups. Please check that the lids are compatible with your chosen cups before placing your order.

Can different types of 9oz cups be used in the same vending machine carousel?

Business Beverages advises against mixing 9oz cups from different brands, materials or designs within the same carousel. Differences in cup shape and finish can cause cups to dispense twice or jam.

Use up the current cups before refilling the carousel with one consistent cup type.

How can I select the correct 9oz cup for my machine?

First, check whether your drinks machine uses paper or plastic cups and confirm the required rim diameter. Compare the specifications with the cups you currently use or the guidance in your machine manual.

If you are uncertain, choose a cup that most closely matches your existing one or contact Business Beverages for help.
