A wide variety of disposable glasses are available in plastic materials like Polypropylene (PP), Polystyrene, Styrofoam, etc and also in paper in the present day markets. These are usually used for drinking water, lassi, cold drinks, juices and other hot and cold beverages for marriages, parties (especially children’s birthday parties) and functions.
Smaller sizes of these are being used to sell tea/ coffee by small time vendors too, especially outside offices, public spaces, at vending machines etc.
These are available in various shapes, textures and capacities. They are available in double and single colours with an option of multicolour printing on the outer surface.
These glasses are disposable in nature and are very popular in urban areas. Since they have only a one time use and have to be thrown after usage, there is zero maintenance.
But a grave disadvantage is that- some of these glasses when not disposed of properly cause a lot of environmental damage, as plastics are not biodegradable.
