Paper Boxes & Trays — Performance Without Plastic Lamination

Die-cut paperboard containers occupy the most technically interesting position in food packaging: structural protection, thermal performance to 220°C, and end-of-life compostability — all without plastic lamination. Aqueous-coated trays handle the full thermal journey: −40°C freezer → 220°C oven → hot-hold → table. One container, no transfers. Growing 8–10% annually as QSR chains switch from CPET to fiber alternatives meeting EU PPWR 2026. FSC-certified paperboard (250–400 GSM) with optional greaseproof liners (40–50 GSM) and PE/PLA/aqueous barrier coatings.
