What is a Custom Biodegradable Food Container?

A Custom Biodegradable Food Container is a compostable food packaging solution perfect for soups, stews, and other take-out foods. These are made from chemical-free material making them safe for food contact and ideal for health-conscious customers. Most common box styles used in Custom Biodegradable Food Containers are Two-Piece Stackable Box, Single-Compartment or Multi-Compartment Tray, clamshell box, and foldable takeout box style. They can be customized in different shapes, colors, and sizes for an attractive food presentation and satisfactory unboxing experience. Food containers are lightweight and collapsible which allows stacking and minimizes shipping costs.

Materials used for Customized Biodegradable Food Containers

We use the following high-quality FSC-certified materials such as Kraft, and Cardboard to manufacture custom biodegradable Food Containers.

  • Kraft made from natural fibers is a non-toxic, chemical-free material that is an excellent choice for Food Boxes. Its thickness varies from 10pt to 20pt which prevents oil leakage and preserves the quality of food. It provides moderate insulation to keep the food at the right temperature avoiding sogginess and staleness. Kraft is compostable which perfectly aligns with the sustainability goal of biodegradable food containers. 
  • Cardboard made of wood pulp is a sturdy structure, suitable for both light and heavy food. It is porous which maintains food temperature for a long duration making it suitable for hot and cold items. With an extra protective coating, carboard becomes moisture and grease-resistant. Its smooth surface is ideal for printing logos, designs, and slogans to boost your business. 

Biodegradable Food Container Packaging made from Eco-Friendly Materials

We offer eco-friendly materials like kraft and cardboard to provide sustainable Custom Biodegradable Food Containers. These are extracted from natural resources and plants like sugarcane pulp, bamboo, and hemp trees. Kraft is used in raw form to keep food safe from chemicals. They decompose over time under particular conditions to keep the surroundings free from landfills. We utilize water-based and food-safe inks for printing for our eco-conscious customers.

We are offering various printing and finishing methods that are being used in eco-friendly food storage containers.

The printing can be done inside, outside or both.

Finishing:

Various finishing options are available for Custom Biodegradable Food Containers. These coatings are used to enhance their appearance and provide extra protection. The most common finishing options are mentioned below:

  • Gloss is a reflective surface that immediately attracts the customer’s attention.
  • Matte is a plain surface suitable for printing the desired artwork design and brand slogan.
  • Premium Soft-Touch Matt: giving your fragile and delicate products an extravagant touch.
  • Premium High-Gloss UV: adding depth and dimensions
  • Lamination: adds a protective layer to the box’s surface, reducing damage and increasing its lifespan.
  • Embossing is a printing technique that results in a raised or indented design on the box’s surface. It can be used to add texture as well as to enhance branding elements.
