  • Publication number: 20140319006
    Abstract: A cup container includes a container body and a transparent cover layer that are formed by injection. The container body has an indented pattern formed on an outer wall thereof The pattern includes at least one first concave surface and one second concave surface at different depths. The transparent cover layer encases the container body and fills the pattern. As the second concave surface is indented on the first concave surface, a stepped structure is formed on the outer wall of the container body to become a three-dimensional pattern. Moreover, with the container body and transparent cover layer formed in varying color combinations, a colorful and multi-layer three-dimensional visual effect can be created to enhance aesthetic appeal and quality, thereby increase consumers' purchase desire.
