With a 98mm top diameter, these lids are a precise fit for NextWave's 16oz soup containers — the only size in the soup container range that uses this lid diameter.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe vented design allows steam to escape during service, reducing condensation build-up inside the container and helping maintain food quality and presentation during takeaway and delivery. Produced in a natural kraft finish, these lids complement kraft-format packaging and support a consistent visual identity across the container and lid.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eEach case contains 500 lids. The lids are suitable for both hot and cold food applications under standard foodservice conditions, and are food contact safe. Compatible containers are available separately.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eTypical uses\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThese lids are selected by foodservice operators who require a paper-format lid with venting for soup containers used in takeaway and delivery operations. The 98mm diameter is specific to the 16oz soup container size, making this a focused lid solution for that format.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n \u003cli\u003eHot soup and broth service in takeaway and delivery operations, where steam management during transit is important for maintaining food temperature and presentation\u003c\/li\u003e\n \u003cli\u003eStew and liquid-based meal packing for cloud kitchens and delivery-led foodservice businesses that use the 16oz soup container as their standard format\u003c\/li\u003e\n \u003cli\u003eCatering operations supplying hot food for off-site consumption, where vented lids help manage steam during holding and transport\u003c\/li\u003e\n \u003cli\u003eKraft-branded packaging setups where operators want a consistent paper aesthetic across container and lid, rather than mixing paper and plastic formats\u003c\/li\u003e\n \u003cli\u003eEnvironmentally conscious foodservice operations that prefer paper-format lids to complement their overall packaging approach\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eKey benefits\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n \u003cli\u003eVented design manages steam during service: The vent allows steam to escape from hot contents, reducing condensation that can soften the lid and affect presentation. This supports consistent food quality during the period between packing and consumption, which is particularly relevant in delivery and takeaway operations where lead times vary.\u003c\/li\u003e\n \u003cli\u003ePaper format supports a kraft packaging aesthetic: These lids are produced in kraft paper, matching the appearance of kraft soup containers and providing a unified look across the container format. Operators building a natural or paper-forward packaging identity can use this lid to maintain consistency without introducing a plastic lid into the presentation.\u003c\/li\u003e\n \u003cli\u003ePrecise fit for 16oz soup containers: The 98mm diameter is designed specifically for the 16oz container size. Using a correctly sized lid reduces the risk of misfit or lid displacement during packing and handling, which is particularly relevant for liquid-based dishes where container integrity during delivery matters.\u003c\/li\u003e\n \u003cli\u003eSuitable for hot and cold food applications: The lid performs under standard foodservice conditions for both hot and cold food service, allowing operators to use the same lid format across different menu items in the 16oz container size without switching lid types.\u003c\/li\u003e\n \u003cli\u003eCase quantity supports operational volume: Each case contains 500 lids, providing an adequate supply for regular service periods without requiring frequent reordering. This supports operational planning for kitchens running the 16oz soup container as part of a regular delivery or takeaway menu.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"NextWave","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":62823215858035,"sku":null,"price":100.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0995\/6232\/4339\/files\/KraftPaperVentedLids98mm_5e007b0f-9747-4db5-8694-c7f806dd2ee8.jpg?v=1778284810","url":"https:\/\/next-wave.uk\/products\/kraft-paper-vented-lids-98-mm","provider":"Next Wave","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
