Abstract (en)

The versatile lid (10) is for a cup (20) or any other container. The lid (10) has a central wall (13) and a skirt (16) extending along its perimeter (18) and at an angle to the central wall (13). The skirt (16) has an outer wall (12) and a fold (19) that extends from the outer wall (12) towards the central wall (13). The outer wall (12) and the fold (19) converge at and are rotatable around an edge (17) of the skirt (16), so as to change the angle between them. The lid (10) is formed from a single piece (33) of paperboard and does not contain any substance that would have had rendered the lid a single-use plastic product according to the EU Directive EU 2019/904. The configuration of the lid hinders unwished spillage of the liquid that is contained in the cup on one hand and is appropriate to co-operate with various shapes of cups on the other.
