Heavy-Duty Construction | Grease & Moisture Resistant | Compostable Options | Catering and Food Service Essentials

Explore Products

Product Overview

Paper Plates & Trays are heavy-duty disposable tableware solutions designed for catering companies, event venues, airlines, corporate cafeterias, fast food chains, outdoor gatherings, and food delivery services. Built for hot meals, saucy dishes, snacks, desserts, and portioned meal kits, these paper plates and trays provide dependable strength, clean presentation, and convenient single-use service for high-volume food operations.
The range uses multi-ply pressed paper, bagasse fiber, or bamboo fiber materials to balance durability with environmental responsibility. Rigid construction helps prevent bending during service, while raised rims contain sauces and liquids to reduce spills. Certified options support FDA 21 CFR 176.170, EU EC 1935/2004, FSC® certification, ISO 22000, BRCGS Packaging, HACCP, and compostable standards including BPI and EN 13432 for selected bagasse and PLA-coated variants.

Product Overview

Key Product Features

Heavy-Duty Load Support

3–5 ply pressed construction supports up to 3 kg without flexing, making these disposable food trays suitable for pasta, rice meals, grilled foods, desserts, and catered portions.

Raised Rim for Spill Control

Raised rims from 15–25 mm help contain sauces, dressings, gravies, and liquids during serving, carrying, and short-distance food delivery.

Cut-Resistant Eating Surface

The compressed surface withstands normal knife and fork use without tearing, helping maintain a better dining experience for events, cafeterias, and takeaway meals.

Microwave-Compatible Options

Multi-ply paper plates with PE or water-based coating can be used in a microwave for up to 2 minutes at 800W, while bagasse options support short reheating under specified conditions.

Efficient Stacking & Storage

Stackable shapes reduce storage space, improve counter display, and support fast setup for buffet lines, catering stations, airlines, and institutional foodservice.

Responsible Material Choices

Options include FSC-certified recyclable paper, PFAS-free water-based coatings, bagasse plates that are home compostable, and PLA-coated industrially compostable plates, offering up to 60% lower carbon footprint than plastic plates.

Technical Specifications & Dimensions

Material options include 250–500 gsm multi-ply board, bagasse sugarcane fiber, or premium bamboo fiber. Coating choices include PE, PLA, or PFAS-free water-based coating, with a typical temperature range of -20°C to 120°C depending on material and coating structure. Products are free from BPA, melamine, and PFAS.

Quality Assurance & Supply Chain Reliability

Quality Assurance & Supply Chain Reliability
Manufacturing is managed under ISO 9001:2015, ISO 14001:2015, ISO 45001:2018, BRCGS Issue 9, FSSC 22000, and HACCP systems to support food-contact safety, environmental management, workplace safety, and production traceability.


Each production batch is verified through a minimum 3 kg load-bearing test, cut-resistance testing, rim leak testing, microwave safety validation, and 100% visual inspection for print defects. Print quality is checked against ISO 12647, and a Certificate of Analysis (CoA) is supplied with every shipment for buyer records and compliance review.


For recurring programs, we maintain a 98.5% on-time delivery rate, provide production tracking for large orders, and offer a VMI program for annual contracts. This helps catering groups, chain restaurants, distributors, and institutional buyers manage seasonal demand and reduce inventory risk.
