Universal Sealer Machines – Seal PP and PET Cups
If you’re in the beverage or food business then you already know how important it is to have the right sealing machine. But not all sealers are created equal—especially when it comes to cup size and material. Our Universal Sealer Machine is the game-changer you didn’t know you needed.
It seals both 95mm PP cups and 98mm PET cups, saving time, space and money. Let’s dive into what makes this machine essential for your business.
What Is a Universal Sealer Machine?
A Universal Sealer Machine is designed to seal different types of plastic cups with varying diameters, specifically 95mm polypropylene (PP) cups and 98mm polyethylene terephthalate (PET) cups. Most standard machines only handle one size or one type of cup, but this universal model adapts to both—making it ideal for fast-paced, multi-drink operations.

Understanding Cup Types
PP (Polypropylene) Cups
These are the go-to cups for hot or warm drinks like bubble tea or soups. They’re flexible, cheap, and can handle moderate heat. The 95mm PP cup is the most widely used standard in many parts of Asia.
PET (Polyethylene Terephthalate) Cups
PET cups are sturdier and often used for iced drinks like smoothies and juices. They’re crystal clear and give a premium look to your product. They usually have a 98mm diameter, which makes them slightly wider than PP cups—and not all sealers can handle that.
Why Cup Diameter Matters (95mm vs 98mm)
Standard Sizes in the Industry
Most sealing machines are pre-calibrated for one diameter—usually 95mm. This creates a problem when your business uses different cup types for different drinks.
Compatibility Challenges
Trying to seal a 98mm PET cup on a 95mm-only machine? Good luck. The film won’t align, the seal will break, and the drink will leak. You’ll waste product and frustrate customers.
Benefits of Dual-Size Machines
With a dual-size universal sealer, you can switch cup types without switching machines. That means faster service, fewer mistakes, and smoother workflows.
Key Features of the Universal Sealer Machine
Universal Base with Adjustable Sealing Rings
Universal Sealing Machines have a Universal Base where you can place different sized sealing rings for your different types of cups.
Intelligent Temperature Control
Different cups need different sealing temperatures. Universal sealers auto-adjust based on cup type to ensure a strong, secure seal every time.
Auto/Manual Sealing Modes
Whether you prefer manual control or a hands-free experience, the machine can do both—just flip a switch.
Durable and Compact Design
Made with stainless steel and a compact build, it fits perfectly in tight spaces without sacrificing performance.
