Molded Fiber Trays for Vegetable

Produce trays pressed on an automated line

Produce trays are a volume business, and volume businesses are decided by cycle time as much as by design. Our fiber trays are formed on high-automation lines, which is what keeps a fully bio-based tray competitive with a plastic punnet on a per-unit basis.

What we press for fresh produce:

• Punnets and trays for berries, tomatoes, mushrooms, herbs, stone fruit and mixed vegetable packs.
• Moulded vents formed in the floor and walls so the pack breathes without a punched hole pattern.
• Stacking shoulders that protect the produce from the load above, not just the pack itself.
• Drainage geometry that keeps a washed or chilled product off its own moisture.

Material is bio-based throughout - bagasse, straw, recycled paper fiber - so the punnet goes into the paper or organic stream, and it can be printed with grower and variety marks directly on the fiber rather than on a label.

Because the tray is moulded, a client-specific footprint costs a tool rather than a new line, and once the tool is approved the fit repeats across millions of parts. MOQ is 10,000 pieces per design; tooling 7–15 days; production 15–25 days after sample approval. Send the produce format, unit weight and chilled transit time, or browse our fiber range.
