The UKCA Standard

If you sell alcohol by volume (draught beer, cider, or wine), the vessel used must be legally verified for capacity. The UKCA (UK Conformity Assessed) mark is the visible proof that your cup holds exactly the amount you are charging for.

This is a mandatory requirement for licensed venues in Great Britain. Serving in unmarked or unverified vessels exposes your business to prosecution.

As a UK manufacturer (STACK-CUP UK LIMITED), Stack-Cup is authorised to apply these statutory marks during production, ensuring every unit is legally compliant straight out of the box.

From CE to UKCA

Historically, the CE mark was the standard across Europe and the UK. Following Brexit, the regulations have changed.

Key Update:

  • The UKCA mark is now the required certification for goods placed on the market in Great Britain.

While both marks signify accuracy, Stack-Cup ensures all new stock carries the correct UKCA accreditation relevant to the domestic market.

The Risks of Non-Compliance

Using uncertified cups for measured alcohol is a breach of the Weights & Measures Act 1985. The consequences are severe:

  • Fines up to £20,000
  • Seizure of non-compliant stock
  • Risk of licence suspension
  • Intervention by Trading Standards

Compliance is not optional. It protects your business license.

I ordered reusable cups for my event and they were perfect. Great quality, durable, and the printing looked amazing. Guests loved them and they were a much better eco-friendly alternative to disposable cups. The ordering process was smooth and delivery was quick. I’ll definitely be buying again for future events.
