Case Study: Real Business, Real Results

The Greedy Gyoza, a popular stall at Camden Market in London, decided to move away from their old plastic-lined trays. They wanted packaging that matched their commitment to fresh, quality ingredients and  would appeal to their environmentally-conscious customers.

"These trays are fantastic. They're tough enough for our sauciest gyoza, they look great on Instagram, and  our regulars have noticed the switch. It just feels right for our brand. No more complaints about flimsy packaging!"

Ben Carter – Owner, The Greedy Gyoza

The stall noticed a significant increase in social media tags from customers, with many positively mentioning the new eco-friendly packaging, helping to boost their online visibility.

Installation and  Maintenance Guide

Getting Them Ready for Service

  • Keep the outer box sealed until needed to protect the trays from dust and  moisture.
  • The nested design means they separate easily, allowing for rapid service during a rush.
  • Set up a stack right next to your serving station for quick and  easy access.
  • They're ideal for pre-portioning dry snacks like pastries or churros ahead of a busy spell.

Storage and  Disposal

  • Store the box in a cool, dry place, away from direct sunlight or damp conditions.
  • Encourage customers to use the correct food waste bins provided at your venue or event.
  • After use, these trays are perfect for your commercial food waste collection service.
  • Check with your local council or waste contractor about commercial composting facilities in your area.

Buying Guide: Choosing the Right Disposable Tableware

Not sure what fits best for your business? Here’s a quick guide to help you choose the right takeaway packaging.

Assess Your Eco-Goals

Are you aiming for recyclable, biodegradable, or compostable? These compostable kraft food trays tick the top-tier green boxes, covering both commercial composting and  recycling.

Match the Tray to the Food

Consider what you're serving. These Colpac trays are fantastic for solid, saucy, or greasy foods, but aren't suitable for liquid-heavy dishes like soup.

Check the Portion Size

This large 220mm tray is great for main meal portions. For smaller sides or snacks, consider a smaller size to manage costs and  food waste effectively.

Think About Your Customer

An attractive, sturdy kraft tray enhances the customer experience and  shows you care about sustainability, which can seriously boost your brand's reputation.

Consider Your Storage Space

Nested and  stackable packaging like this is a lifesaver for small kitchens, pop-ups, or food trucks where every single inch of storage counts.

Frequently Asked Questions

Q: Are these trays suitable for very hot food?

A: Yes, they are made from a thick paperboard specifically designed to handle both hot and  cold foods comfortably without losing their shape.

Q: Can I put these trays in the microwave?

A: No, these trays are not safe for use in a microwave or a conventional oven. They are for serving only.

Q: Are they leak-proof for very wet foods?

A: They are very leak-resistant and  brilliant for serving food with sauces, gravy, or dressings. However, they are not designed to hold liquids like soup for extended periods.

Q: What is the difference between compostable and  biodegradable?

A: While related, 'compostable' is a more specific term. These trays are certified to break down in commercial composting facilities within a specific timeframe, leaving no toxic residue.

Q: Can they be recycled in a standard recycling bin?

A: Yes, as they're made from paperboard. However, if they are heavily soiled with food waste or grease, they should be composted instead. Always check local recycling guidelines.

Q: What are the trays made from?

A: They are constructed from recycled paperboard, making them a strong and  sustainable choice for food service.

Q: How many trays are in one box?

A: Each box contains a pack of 250 large compostable food trays, all nested for easy storage.

Q: Do they have any kind of plastic lining?

A: No, these trays do not have a plastic (PE or PLA) lining, which is why they are recyclable and  compostable as a pure paperboard product.

What Does 'Commercially Compostable' Really Mean?

You see 'commercially compostable' on lots of products, but what does it actually mean for your business? In short, it means these trays are designed to break down into nutrient-rich soil, but they need a little help from the professionals. Think of it like baking a cake: you can mix the ingredients at home (like a home compost heap), but for a perfect, speedy result, you need a professional oven with just the right temperature and  conditions. An industrial composting facility is that professional oven. It ensures these biodegradable food trays for catering break down efficiently and  safely, turning your waste back into something useful without leaving any nasties behind.

Who Should Buy This?

  • Street Food Vendors

    An essential for serving loaded fries, tacos, or gourmet burgers in a sturdy, professional-looking tray.

  • Festival & Event Caterers

    Perfect for dishing out crowd-pleasing portions quickly with these reliable disposable kraft serving trays.
