Complete guide: Set of 100 disposable cups Black
The set of 100 disposable black cups is the essential consumable for the workstation in a tattoo or piercing studio: it is used for rinsing needles and tubes, storing green soap and disinfectant solutions during a session. Each cup has a capacity of 200 ml and rounded edges, and the black color is preferred by many artists because it masks ink and pigment traces, maintaining a clean look on the work table. Being disposable, it eliminates the risk of cross-contamination between clients.
How to use
- Before the session, remove from packaging only the number of cups needed for that client (usually 2-4 pieces: one for rinsing water, one for green soap, possibly others for additional solutions).
- Place the cups on the disinfected work area, ideally in dedicated holders, to reduce the risk of tipping over.
- Fill the cup with distilled water for rinsing needles and tubes, or with the disinfectant solution/green soap used in your protocol.
- Check the liquid level by looking from above into the cup — being black, the contents are not visible through the walls.
- Use each cup only once, for a single client and a single session.
- At the end, dispose of the used cups according to your studio's contaminated waste protocol — do not reuse or wash them for reuse.
- Store unused cups stacked, in their original packaging, in a dry, clean place away from dust.
Tips from us
- Prepare more cups than you think you need per shift, so you don't have to interrupt the session for refills.
- Establish a consistent placement (e.g., left = water, right = soap) to avoid confusing contents when working with multiple solutions at once.
- For extra stability on the work table, use dedicated cup holders or bases.
- Keep a backup stock: at a pace of 3-5 clients per day and 3-4 cups per client, a set of 100 covers about 1-2 weeks.
- Order multiple sets in advance, so you don't run out of stock in the middle of a busy day.
Warning: The cups are strictly disposable: discard them after each client, no matter how little content has been used, to follow hygiene protocols and prevent cross-contamination. Do not wash or reuse them — dispose of them according to your studio's waste management rules.

The 100-piece black disposable cup set is the classic and professional consumable for tattoo and piercing studios. Black is the preferred color of most tattoo artists because it perfectly masks ink and pigment traces, maintaining a clean and professional appearance throughout the session. Black cups integrate impeccably into the typical tattoo studio aesthetic, complementing professional equipment and furniture. Made from durable food-grade plastic, the cups offer durability and stability on the workstation. They are ideal for all standard studio uses: rinsing needles and tubes with distilled water, storing green soap, disinfectant solutions, and other needed liquids. The 100 pieces ensure generous stock for weeks of continuous activity. Each cup is single-use, guaranteeing compliance with hygiene protocols and cross-contamination prevention. The black color is by far the most popular choice in the tattoo industry due to the versatility and professional appearance it provides to the studio. Black is the defining color of the tattoo industry, symbolizing professionalism, mystery, and dedication to art. Black cups perfectly match professional tattoo equipment, studio furniture, and the specific atmosphere of this creative environment. Reduced content visibility is a minor compromise compared to the aesthetic and practical advantages of completely masking ink and pigment stains. The food-grade plastic does not interact with chemical substances and maintains structural integrity throughout the session. The wide base offers excellent workbench stability, reducing the risk of liquid spillage onto nearby equipment or clients.
