① Two-Layer Food Presentation in One Cup

The insert sits inside the GHW-117 cup and separates two food components until the moment of eating — no secondary container, no extra packaging. One cup, two ingredients, one lid on top.

② Two Depths for Two Use Cases

M1 (10mm / shallow): thin-layer toppings — sauce, dressing, honey, fruit slices, granola. M2 (21mm / deep): deeper secondary portions — yogurt, mixed nuts, berry mix, dip. Choose the depth that matches your portion size.

③ Customer-Activated Separation — Freshness Locked Until Use

Ingredients in the upper insert stay physically separated from the lower content until the customer removes the insert. Moisture migration between layers is prevented — keeping granola crunchy, fruit dry, and sauces contained until the intended moment.

④ Clear PET — Both Layers Visible at Point of Sale

The transparent insert is invisible through the GHW-117 cup's clear PET walls — customers can see both the upper topping and the lower main content at a glance. The layered visual is a direct retail impulse-purchase driver.

⑤ Sized Precisely for the GHW-117 Cup Interior

Outer diameter 113mm, inner diameter 105×105mm — engineered to fit the GHW-117 cup interior without play or tipping. The insert rests stably on the cup contents without adhesive, clips, or secondary support.

Insert-to-Cup Fit Engineering

The GHW-117M1 and M2 are dimensioned to fit the interior of the GHW-117 cup with a controlled clearance — tight enough to prevent tilting or shifting during handling and transport, loose enough to be removed with two fingers without disturbing the lower content. The 113mm outer diameter matches the GHW-117 cup's interior shoulder geometry; the 105×105mm inner cavity provides the usable upper-layer volume. This fit is specific to the GHW-117 cup series — the insert is not designed for other cup calibers.

Depth Selection Logic

The choice between M1 and M2 is determined by the volume of the secondary ingredient:

· GHW-117M1 (10mm depth, ~9ml usable volume): suited for thin-layer toppings that add visual and flavor value without significant volume — sauce drizzle, honey, thin fruit slice arrangements, a single layer of granola, or a light dressing film.

· GHW-117M2 (21mm depth, ~18ml usable volume): suited for secondary portions with meaningful volume — a yogurt dollop, a portion of mixed nuts, a dressing cup equivalent, or a berry mix that constitutes a separate ingredient rather than a garnish.

Ingredient Integrity Until Consumption

Physical separation of the two food layers prevents premature moisture transfer — the primary challenge in layered food packaging. Granola placed in M1 above a fruit base stays dry until the customer removes the insert. Sauce placed in M2 above a salad base stays contained. This extends the practical shelf life of the assembled product in refrigerated retail display — a direct operational advantage for pre-packed grab-and-go programs.

Transparency as a Merchandising Tool

Because the insert is clear PET and the GHW-117 cup is clear PET, the two-layer content is fully visible through the cup sidewall at the point of display. No opaque packaging obscures the presentation — customers see the complete assembled product from the outside. This visibility is what makes layered cup products effective in retail impulse-purchase environments: the product sells itself without a label describing what is inside.

Precision Accessory Manufacturing — Fit is the Product

For a cup insert, dimensional accuracy is not a quality metric — it is the product. An insert that fits loosely tilts under load and spills upper-layer content into the lower layer during transport. An insert that fits too tightly cannot be removed cleanly by the end customer. QunLu produces the GHW-117M1 and M2 on the same thermoforming infrastructure as the GHW-117 cup itself — using the cup's interior geometry as the reference dimension for insert tooling. This co-production relationship is what ensures consistent fit performance across production runs, not just on the first sample.

Both M1 and M2 share identical packaging specifications — 2,000 pcs per carton, 60×50×25 cm, 0.075 m³ CBM — making mixed M1/M2 orders straightforward to consolidate with GHW-117 cup orders or other QunLu products in a single container shipment.

Q: How does the insert stay in place inside the cup during transport?

The insert rests on the surface of the lower food content and is held in position by the cup interior wall geometry — no adhesive, clips, or secondary support required. The 113mm outer diameter is sized to fit the GHW-117 cup interior with controlled clearance that prevents tilting. For transport stability, we recommend filling the lower layer sufficiently so the insert has a stable food surface to rest on.

Q: How does the customer remove the insert?

The insert is removed with two fingers from the top before eating — the customer lifts it straight up and out of the cup, then either sets it aside or combines the upper content with the lower layer. The fit geometry allows clean removal without disturbing the lower content.

Q: Which depth should I choose — M1 or M2?

Choose M1 (10mm / shallow) for thin-layer toppings: sauce, honey, granola, fruit slices, or light dressings where volume is small. Choose M2 (21mm / deep) when the secondary portion has meaningful volume: yogurt, mixed nuts, berry mix, dip, or dressing portions that constitute a separate ingredient. If unsure, request samples of both and test with your actual filling to confirm which depth suits your product.

Q: Can I use these inserts with other cup brands or other QunLu cup sizes?

No. The GHW-117M1 and M2 are dimensioned specifically for the GHW-117 cup series (8oz to 32oz). They are not compatible with QunLu's QL90/92/95/98 cold drink cup series or with third-party cups of different interior geometries.

Q: Can I order M1 and M2 in different quantities in the same shipment?

Yes. Both inserts share identical carton dimensions and CBM — mixed M1/M2 orders are straightforward to consolidate. Specify your M1 and M2 quantities separately when requesting a quote. They can also be co-shipped with GHW-117 cups and lids in a single container.
