Medium Kraft Trays (1000 pcs)

1. Product overview of Medium Kraft Trays

The Lumapack Medium Kraft Tray is a open-top paper tray designed for everyday foodservice use. Built from food-grade kraft paperboard with a natural brown finish, it delivers dependable structural rigidity across hot and cold food applications — from loaded fries and burgers to wraps, hot dogs, and street food servings.

Each case contains 1000 trays, making it a practical choice for food trucks, takeaway counters, cafés, catering operations, and event hospitality where consistent, high-volume supply is essential. The boat tray format — open, low-profile, and rectangular — supports fast serving and easy eating, particularly in grab-and-go and counter-service environments.

The Medium Kraft Tray is manufactured from responsibly sourced kraft paperboard and is suitable for direct food contact. It is food-grade certified, BPA-free, and produced without added PFAS, meeting UK market requirements for commercial foodservice use.

2. Typical foodservice uses for Medium Kraft Trays

The medium format is the most widely used boat tray size in the Lumapack range. Its proportions are well matched to standard single-portion serving across a broad range of street food and counter-service applications.

Common applications include:

• Chips, fries, and fried snacks at takeaway counters, food trucks, and quick-service restaurants, where the open-top tray format allows fast loading and immediate service without the need for a lid or closure
• Burgers, hot dogs, and wraps where the tray provides a stable base for handheld food items, keeping the serving surface clean and reducing mess for the customer
• Loaded fries and street food combinations at markets, festivals, and pop-up events, where the medium tray size accommodates a full individual portion of loaded or topped dishes
• Sides and accompaniments in café and restaurant environments, where a lightweight open tray is needed alongside main dishes for coleslaw, salad, onion rings, and similar portions
• Catering and event service where consistent, stackable trays are required for high-throughput buffet lines, outdoor catering, and hospitality setups with rapid turnaround between servings

The medium size sits between the Small and Large Kraft Trays in the Lumapack boat tray range, making it the go-to format for standard individual portions across the widest range of foodservice settings.

3. Operational benefits of Medium Kraft Trays for takeaway and foodservice

• Open-top format for fast counter service: The boat tray design requires no assembly, no lid attachment, and no folding before use. Trays are ready to fill directly from the stack, supporting rapid service during high-throughput periods at counters, kiosks, and food trucks.
• Kraft paperboard construction that maintains shape during service: The kraft paperboard holds structural integrity when filled with hot or mixed food under standard serving conditions. The tray resists softening and deformation during typical service durations, keeping food presented cleanly through to the customer.
• Grease-resistant surface for fried food applications: The kraft surface provides resistance to oil and grease migration from chips, fries, and fried snacks during service, reducing the likelihood of tray softening or bleed-through in everyday use.
• 1000-piece case quantity for high-volume operations: The 1000 pcs per case format is suited to foodservice operations with consistent daily throughput. Higher case quantities reduce restocking frequency and help maintain uninterrupted supply during busy service periods.
• Stackable for efficient storage: Medium Kraft Trays stack neatly for compact storage in commercial kitchen and counter environments where shelf space is at a premium. Consistent sizing makes restocking and retrieval straightforward across shifts.
• Natural kraft finish for food-appropriate presentation: The unbleached kraft appearance is well suited to street food, artisan, and casual dining formats, providing a clean and natural look without requiring additional branding or decoration to present food attractively.
• Printable exterior surface: The kraft exterior accepts ink for custom logo and branding printing, supporting operators who want to reinforce their brand identity across every customer-facing touchpoint.

5. What sets the Medium Kraft Tray from Lumapack apart

The Lumapack Medium Kraft Tray is designed for foodservice operations where speed of service, presentation consistency, and day-to-day reliability are required across high-volume runs.

Versatile serving format across a wide range of foods
The open-top boat tray format is compatible with a broader range of food types than many enclosed container formats. From fries and loaded dishes to wrapped items and cold sides, the medium tray works across multiple menu categories without requiring a separate container for each application.

Sturdy kraft construction for reliable performance during service
The kraft paperboard is selected for its structural performance under standard serving conditions. The tray maintains form when filled and handled during service and customer eating, reducing the risk of collapse or deformation that can affect presentation and customer experience.

Natural finish that works across foodservice formats
The natural kraft appearance is a consistent fit for street food, casual dining, pop-up events, and catering environments. It presents food cleanly without additional branding requirements, while also providing a printable surface for operators who want to apply custom logos or branding.

Consistent sizing for straightforward operations
Uniform dimensions within the medium size class support portioning consistency and predictable stock management across shifts, sites, and service periods. This is particularly useful for multi-site operators and delivery-led formats where standardisation across the range matters.

Recyclable where clean
Medium Kraft Trays are made from kraft paperboard without PE lining and are recyclable where clean and accepted by local paper recycling streams. For heavily soiled or grease-saturated trays, recyclability depends on local facilities.
