Working out what to say on a custom cup can be tricky, but it has a huge impact on getting higher return rates for your reusables program!
We've put together a selection of ready to use reuse cup designs so you can skip the blank page and go straight to a quote.
These are free to use how you want: edit the design, add your own logo, or keep it simple and use the design as is.
Iconic events and venues have a problem with reusable cups going home with patrons. After all, who wouldn’t love to take home a printed Sydney Opera House reusable wine cup, or a fun branded festival cup?
But every cup that leaves the venue is one you have to replace, and that adds up fast.
This is why we generally recommend simple reuse messaging, and why Sydney Opera House prints “please return me” directly onto their Stemless cups.
Messaging matters if you need higher patron engagement in your reuse program.
We’ve written before about how behaviour change shapes reuse systems and having clear, consistent messaging is a priority when we work with events and venues to build or refine their reusables program.
The same messaging on your bins, cups and signage around the event reduces the last minute “which bin is right” panic from patrons.

Yes. Send your logo through with your quote request and we’ll show you how it sits alongside the reuse message before anything goes to print.
You can also print on 2 sides of the reusable cup, so you can have your logo on one side and the reuse messaging on the other!
The designs are shown on our Stemless (450ml), Tumbler (425ml), Taster (285ml) and Flute (270ml) cups in the library.
The reuse messaging can also be printed on our reusable betterdish. These reusable food trays are perfect for council events, markets, food truck parks and more!
