The added security of the patented sliding tab increases the level of functionality compared to most hot cup lids, elevating the to-go experience for consumers by helping to relieve concerns for beverage splash, even in vehicle cup holders. For years standard hot cup lids have either used an open-style or pull-back tab for on-the-go beverages, leaving hot coffees or teas exposed. The Smart Top reclosable lid protects your beverage with the sliding plastic tab that moves forward or back with one hand to seal the drink opening.
