Product Description

ARK's Sip-Tip® is specially designed to make drinking easier for individuals with difficulties generating and maintaining suction. Whether you're a teenager, adult, or caregiver, this set provides everything you need for a seamless drinking experience.

The set includes:

  • 1 eight oz. tumbler
  • 1 spill-resistant lid
  • 10 One-Way Straws
  • 1 Lip Blok® (yellow, 3/4")

The One-Way Straws feature a unique valve built into the bottom that controls the flow of liquid, ensuring fluid flows up into the straw but does not empty back into the cup. This innovative design reduces the amount of air ingested and the effort required for each sip, resulting in less coughing and choking.

Users can either suck from the straw or be assisted by "pumping" the fluid up with the flexible lid. Simply cover the vent hole with your finger and press down several times until the liquid reaches the desired height.

Here's why the ARK Sip-Tip® stands out:

  • Professional and discreet design suitable for teenagers through to adults
  • Secure snap-on lid minimizes spillage
  • Rigid, high-quality tumbler with graduated marks for monitoring fluid intake
  • Lip Blok® prevents biting on the straw and promotes correct tongue and lip positioning.

  • Made in the USA, medical grade, FDA compliant
