The original, copyrighted Kup Kollar (cup sleeve) since 1996

Kollars 3 First design.jpg

Don’t be fooled by imitators! The first cup wrap (cup sleeve, cup cozy) insulated with Thinsulate Insulation by 3M is the copyrighted Kup Kollar. When Koffee Kompanions was founded in 1996, the Kup Kollar (cup wrap) was the second product I designed after the French press cozy.

My first cup sleeve had a hook and loop fastener. After testing the design for a year, I found the fastener was loosing its “stickiness” with frequent use. The wrap slipped on the beverage containers and was bulky to hold. I knew I had to change the design or scrap the product.

The redesigned coffee cozy sleeve has kept many drink containers hotter or colder, longer!
