Food Tray Packaging

Food trays from Rigid Packaging UK are a great way to keep your food safe and sound. Think of them like little plates with walls, designed to hold different types of food securely. These trays are used everywhere, from your local grocery store to restaurants that do take out. They are simple to use and help prevent messes. What are Food Trays Made Of? Our food trays are made from different materials, depending on what they are used for. Some are made from plastic, which is light and strong. These plastic trays are good for holding things like fruits, vegetables, or sandwiches. We also have trays made from paperboard. Paperboard is like thick paper and is often used for bakery items or cooked meals. These trays can often go in the microwave, making it easy to reheat your food. A third type is made of aluminum, which is strong and can handle high temperatures, making it perfect for grilling or baking directly in the tray. Why Use Food Trays? There are lots of reasons why people use food trays. First, they protect the food from getting squished or damaged. Imagine trying to carry a slice of cake without a tray. It would probably fall apart! Trays keep everything in one place and looking good. Second, food trays are easy to stack. This is really important for stores and restaurants because it saves space. They can stack trays of prepared food in the fridge or on shelves. Third, trays can help keep food fresh for longer. Some trays are designed with lids that snap on tight, keeping air out and preventing the food from drying out or spoiling quickly. Different Kinds of Food Trays Rigid Packaging UK makes many different kinds of food trays to fit all sorts of needs. We have small trays for single servings of snacks, like cheese and crackers. We also have big trays for family sized meals, like lasagna or roasted chicken. Some trays have separate sections inside, so you can keep different foods apart. This is great for things like TV dinners or meal prep. Others are simple and open, perfect for things like cookies or pastries. We even offer trays made of sustainable materials. This means they are made from things that can be reused or that break down naturally, which is good for the environment.
