About this dieline
About this dieline
A 2 cup carrier is the takeaway holder for two coffees or cold drinks: an open basket with a handle standing across its middle, one cup either side. Each half of the handle hangs from the middle of a long wall, and the two halves are glued back to back, so the handle is two layers thick where the hand goes. The cups stand on a self-locking bottom.
Enter the length, width and height and the board, keep the push-in straps or switch them off, and download a print-ready PDF with cut and crease lines. Kraft paperboard of 0.4–0.6 mm is the usual board. For four drinks two by two there is the 4 cup carrier.
What size do I need for two coffees?
The most common stock size is 194 × 95 × 203 mm (7⅝ × 3¾ × 8 in): it takes cups from 12 to 32 oz. The height is the whole carrier up to the top of the handle; the walls come out at 0.4 of it unless you set them. For other cups, the width is the rim of one cup plus 3–5 mm and the length about twice that.
Does it need glue?
Only at the factory: the side seam and the two layers of the handle are glued, and the carrier ships flat. At the counter you push it open and the bottom locks by itself. The push-in straps hold a smaller cup steady; leave them flat for a big one.
