Choose between a food pack and an outer carton

Describe the food product and whether the box holds it directly, surrounds a sealed pack or groups several portions. Measure the filled inner pack and include seals, trays or liners. If food may touch the box, say so at the start so the material can be considered for that intended use.

Size for the food service and items inside

Include portion count and any sauce pot, cutlery, leaflet or accessory. Share the temperature, oil or moisture conditions that the pack may encounter and ask for the proposed format to be reviewed against them.

Verify contact use and food information

FSA guidance covers food-business packaging and labelling requirements, as well as food-contact materials. Have your food business approve the final wording and confirm the material for the intended use. Review a sample or drawing with the actual pack-out before agreeing the order specification.

Frequently Asked Questions

Are food boxes safe for hot food like fries?

Share the food type, temperature and how long it will stay in the pack. The board and any barrier need to be checked for that use, and microwave or heat use should only be considered if the final specification explicitly confirms it.

Do food boxes need a grease liner?

Share the food type, temperature and how long it will stay in the pack. The board and any barrier need to be checked for that use, and microwave or heat use should only be considered if the final specification explicitly confirms it.

Can I print allergen information on the box?

Yes. Allergen details can be printed on the box or on a sticker. Share the wording and we will place it clearly on the panel.

Which food box size suits a sandwich or burger?

There is no single standard size for Food Packaging Boxes. Measure the item as it will be packed, including any wrap or insert, and share its length, width and height so the internal fit can be confirmed in the quote.

Can food boxes be stacked in a takeaway kitchen?

Yes. The box is designed to stack when empty and when filled, as long as the food inside is not too heavy. Tell us the weight of the food for a better answer.

Are food boxes microwave-safe?

Share the food type, temperature and how long it will stay in the pack. The board and any barrier need to be checked for that use, and microwave or heat use should only be considered if the final specification explicitly confirms it.

Can the food box have my restaurant logo and menu?

Yes. Your logo and menu details can be printed on the box. Printing options include full colour (CMYK), single colour, foil stamping, spot UV or embossing.

What is the lead time for food packaging boxes?

There is no fixed lead-time promise for every order. Share your deadline and postcode, and the written quote will confirm the production and delivery plan for the approved specification.
