Since 1936, Solo Cup Company has simplified life with single-use products that enrich everyday meals and special occasions. Solo is exclusively focused on the manufacture of single-use products used to serve food and beverages for the consumer/retail, foodservice and international markets. 

Solo has a broad portfolio of product solutions available in paper, plastic, foam, post-consumer recycled content and annually renewable materials, and creates brand name products under the Solo®, Sweetheart®, Creative Carryouts® and Bare® by Solo® names. Over the years, Solo’s innovative products and designs have become iconic parts of our culture. The often copied red party cup, first introduced by Solo in the 1970s, has been a staple at barbecues, tailgates and picnics for more than a generation. In 2005, Solo’s popular Traveler® hot cup lid – found at coffee houses around the world – was recognized for its form and function by the Museum of Modern Art and named to the museum’s permanent collection. In 2008, Solo introduced Bare by Solo, the industry’s first full line of environmentally preferable single-use products made using recycled, recyclable, compostable or renewable materials. 

Solo Cup has a global presence with facilities in Europe and The Americas. Solo Cup Company was acquired by Dart Container in May 2012 and has corporate offices in Mason, MI and Lake Forest, IL.
