Embossed Cup

The Embossed Cup manufactured by YZY is constructed with a three-dimensional texture on the label base material, which is fully covered by PP plastic after injection molding. The three-dimensional effect is an "internal touch sensation", while the external cup surface remains intact and smooth. When stacked in containers and repeatedly handled, the relief structure will not be directly rubbed, significantly reducing the scrap rate during large-scale circulation and suitable for long-distance cross-border shipping and multi-stage distribution B2B trade scenarios.

Core Business Value

1. Touch sensation hidden design, balancing safety and experience

2. Design-friendly, reducing IP revision costs

3. Process tolerance has been verified through mass production

For texture compensation parameters, even if there are normal fluctuations in equipment during production, the depth of the embossing in the entire batch of cups will be uniform, and there will be no batch differences where some cups have very shallow textures and some have overly deep textures.

4. Effects can be freely combined and matched

5. Complete material archives, suitable for IP copyright review

Why choose Zhongyu?

Most processing factories regard embossing IML as a show-off sample process, only pursuing good-looking samples, while ignoring commercial realities such as large-scale shipping, IP review, and production tolerance.

We have been involved in a large number of IP derivative product projects, familiar with the material, safety, and durability review standards of overseas copyright holders for derivative product packaging. We intervene in design reviews at the project's early stage and inform clients which patterns are not suitable for embossing and which depth of relief is more suitable for injection molding production, avoiding the situation where clients discover they cannot be mass-produced after finalizing the design.

The embossing layout, printing, and post-processing die-cutting are all completed internally, without transferring to external outsourcing factories, fully controlling the process parameters; the patent library covers special texture in-mold forming technology, and can make targeted process adjustments for project difficulties, rather than only producing according to fixed templates.

Competitor Differentiation

- Compared with post-embossing cups

The post-embossed protrusions are exposed and prone to wear and tear during shipping; this product has a texture embedded internally, with a smooth outer surface, lower circulation loss, and is more suitable for long-distance cross-border trade.

- Compared with ordinary flat IML cups

Under the same cup mold conditions, our Embossed Cup adds a tactile selling point, enhancing the retail premium of derivative products, and does not require changing the injection mold.

- Compared with 3D relief injection cups

The cost of changing the 3D injection mold is extremely high; embossing IML only replaces the label, and the same set of cup molds can switch between flat, embossed, and special effects, flexibly responding to multiple IPs and seasonal projects.
