As the weather cools and customers start reaching for more hot drinks, soups and warming food-to-go options, autumn is a good time to take a fresh look at your takeaway packaging.
Vegware's Feel Snug range fits the season particularly well. Its palette of five cosy, nature-inspired colours brings warm, muted tones to takeaway counters, with cups, food containers and coordinating lids creating a consistent look across hot food and drink service.
Made from sustainably sourced bamboo paperboard with a plant-based PLA lining, the range introduces a fresh material choice for food-to-go operators looking to stand out without compromising everyday usability.
Colour is one of the defining features of the Feel Snug collection. Rather than relying on a single design, the range comes in mixed sleeves containing five complementary colours inspired by nature.
The warm palette feels particularly at home during autumn, when coffee, hot chocolate, tea, soup and other warming takeaway options become a bigger part of the menu.
Using the same colour collection across drinks and food containers can also help create a more coordinated counter display without having to introduce completely different packaging ranges.
The coordinated design has practical benefits behind the counter too. The products are designed around consistent sizing and stack neatly, helping operators make better use of storage and service space.
For everyday takeaway drinks, the Feel Snug single wall cups are available in 4oz, 6oz, 8oz, 10oz and 12oz sizes.
That gives operators a useful spread of capacities, from smaller espresso and speciality drink portions through to standard takeaway coffees, teas and other hot drinks.
The cup sizes use Vegware's established lid series system. The 4oz cup uses 62-Series lids and the 6oz uses 72-Series lids, while 8oz cups use 79-Series lids and the 10oz and 12oz cups use 89-Series lids.
Coordinating Feel Snug paper sipping lids are available for the 79-Series and 89-Series cups, helping maintain the range's distinctive look.
Where additional insulation is preferred, the Feel Snug double wall cups are available in 8oz, 10oz, 12oz and 16oz sizes.
Their two-layer bamboo paperboard construction makes them a practical option for coffee, tea and other hot drinks to go, with capacities covering many of the most common takeaway drink sizes.
The 8oz cup takes 79-Series lids, while the 10oz, 12oz and 16oz versions use 89-Series lids. Matching Feel Snug paper sipping lids are available in both series.
For cafés, mobile coffee traders and takeaway counters, this makes it easy to carry several drink sizes while keeping the same seasonal colour scheme throughout the range.
Autumn also brings soups, porridge and warming food-to-go firmly back onto menus, and the Feel Snug collection extends beyond drinks.
The containers are available in 8oz, 12oz and 16oz sizes, giving operators options for smaller portions through to more substantial servings.
Despite being sold as soup containers, their uses extend beyond soup. They can also be used for foods such as pasta, noodles, porridge and one-pot meals, as well as chilled options including salads.
The 8oz container uses Vegware's 90-Series lid format, while the 12oz and 16oz containers take 115-Series lids. Coordinating Feel Snug flat paper hot lids are available for both series, creating a consistent finish across the food range.
Choosing the correct lid is important when ordering cups and containers. Whilst we have talked about lid compatibility, the easy-reference infographic below makes it simple to match compatible Vegware products.
Across the Feel Snug collection, Vegware uses sustainably sourced bamboo paperboard with a plant-based PLA lining.
Bamboo is a fast-growing raw material that regenerates after harvesting. Its natural resistance to water and oils also makes it well suited to foodservice packaging.
The bamboo paperboard provides the strength required for everyday foodservice while offering a distinctive alternative to conventional paperboard. For cafés, takeaways and food-to-go operators, it provides a fresh material choice without moving away from the familiar cup and container formats used during daily service.
The range is designed for industrial composting. Feel Snug hot cups can also be recycled through specialist coffee cup recycling schemes where suitable local collections are available.
Feel Snug brings together practical cup and container sizes with a coordinated palette that feels particularly well suited to autumn service.
Whether you're preparing for increased demand for takeaway coffee, expanding a seasonal soup menu or simply looking for a fresh packaging design, the range offers single wall cups, double wall cups, food containers and matching lids in one consistent collection.
