Why is the super large capacity plastic water cup more popular in the market than the super large capacity stainless steel water cup?

As countries around the world have stricter environmental protection requirements, public opinion has begun to cause people to stay away from plastic products. Beginning in 2017, the global consumption of plastic drinking glasses began to decline year by year.

When the market generally believes that plastic water cups are becoming increasingly depressed in the global market, and even some plastic water cup factories have begun to transform, data shows that since the second half of 2020, a large-capacity plastic water cup has become popular all over the world. Statistics from various cross-border e-commerce platforms show that as of May 2021, these large-capacity plastic water cups are sold globally in the number of hundreds of thousands each month.

This incident shows that it is not that there is no market for plastic water cups, but that the design of the product and the degree of fit with the market demand determines the vitality of the product. With the increasing popularity of large-capacity plastic water cups, many manufacturers of stainless steel water cups have decided to develop large-capacity stainless steel water cups. It is believed that since the world is still beginning to restrict plastics and people are gradually phasing out plastic products, the introduction of super-capacity stainless steel water cups will definitely be favored by more consumers.

At the beginning of 2021, more and more large-capacity water cups will be put on the market. Even with the efforts of various brands and distributors to promote, the manufacturers find that the monthly sales volume of super-capacity water cups is not even a fraction of the sales of super-capacity plastic water cups. Why is the super large capacity plastic water cup more popular in the market than the super large capacity stainless steel water cup?

After summarizing, we found that it is basically composed of these reasons:

1. The plastic water cup is lighter.

2. The plastic water cup is cheaper.

3. People who use large-capacity water cups prefer to drink room temperature water or cold water.

Comparing the weight of a water cup with the same capacity, the weight of a stainless steel water cup is 5-8 times or more than the weight of a plastic water cup. The water cup is lighter and easier to carry, and at the same time it will not cause the burden of drinking.

Taking the same 3.5-liter water cup as an example, the net weight of the plastic water cup is about 100 grams, while the weight of the stainless steel water cup reaches 800 grams, plus the weight of the full water, which virtually causes inconvenience in use. Compared with the production cost, the cost of a stainless steel water cup with the same capacity is 3 times that of a plastic water cup, which directly causes a gap in retail prices.

Many consumers of large-capacity water cups are people who like to exercise. These people often drink water between exercises, so they prefer low-temperature water, and stainless steel water cups are more often used as heat preservation appliances.
