Small Corrugated Fish & Chips Boxes (100 pcs)

1. Product overview of Small Corrugated Fish & Chips Boxes

The Lumapack Small Corrugated Fish & Chips Box is a compact-format corrugated paper food box designed for professional foodservice use, including takeaway, delivery, and counter-service fish and chip operations. The small size is the entry format in the Lumapack corrugated fish and chips box range and is specified for individual portions and lighter servings where a medium or large box would be oversized for the meal being packed.

This format is typically used where single portions of fish and chips, children's meals, side portions, or smaller fried-food servings need to be packed in a dedicated box rather than share a larger format. Compared with larger fish and chips boxes, the small size keeps the packed portion visually well presented, reduces void space during transit, and uses a smaller footprint in delivery bags, hot cabinets, and stacking lanes.

The box is manufactured from food-grade kraft corrugated paperboard and is suitable for direct food contact. The folding construction assembles quickly without tape or clips, and the natural kraft exterior can be left unprinted or used as a base for custom branding. Boxes measure 260 mm in length, 157 mm in width, and 54 mm in height, and are supplied in cases of 100 pieces.

No separate lid is required – the box closes with an integrated folding top flap.

2. Typical foodservice uses for Small Corrugated Fish & Chips Boxes

The small corrugated fish and chips box is typically selected where an individual hot cooked portion needs to be packed for takeaway, delivery, or counter service.

Common applications include:

• Single-portion fish and chips served by chip shops, takeaways, and seaside kiosks, where individual servings are offered alongside sharing formats.
• Children's meals offered by family restaurants and casual dining operators, where a smaller portion and dedicated packaging supports consistent presentation.
• Side portions such as chips, scampi, onion rings, or battered sausages, where a compact box keeps sides separate from main items in delivery bags.
• Street food and event servings prepared by food trucks and festival caterers, where individual hot portions are handed directly to customers.
• Hot counter and grab-and-go items used by cafés, delis, and convenience food counters, where fried or baked items are sold in single servings.

This size is particularly suited to fish and chip shops running tiered menus, delivery-first operators offering individual portions, and casual dining businesses with dedicated children's or sides options, where packaging size needs to match menu format rather than default to a single box size.

3. Operational benefits of Small Corrugated Fish & Chips Boxes for takeaway and delivery

• Right-sized packaging for individual portions: A compact format matched to the portion being packed helps keep food centred and stable during transit, avoiding the movement and presentation issues that can occur when a small serving is placed in an oversized box.
• Corrugated board construction for structure and warmth: The fluted corrugated structure provides rigidity when the box is filled and handled, and supports a heat-retention design that helps keep hot food warm during takeaway and delivery journeys.
• Ships flat for compact storage: Boxes are supplied flat-packed and assembled on demand, which supports kitchens and delivery operators with limited storage space. Flat-pack storage also simplifies inventory counts and reduces the footprint required for stock holdings.
• Assembles in seconds without tape or clips: The folding construction can be assembled by kitchen staff in a single motion, supporting fast packing workflows during service peaks.
• Stackable when assembled for delivery: Filled small boxes stack cleanly in delivery bags and hot cabinets, which helps staff and riders manage multiple orders without crushing contents.
• Consistent sizing across cases: Uniform dimensions within the case support predictable packing workflows and make it straightforward to train new staff on pack formats.

5. What sets this Small Corrugated Fish & Chips Box from Lumapack apart

Compared with many standard fish and chips boxes available to UK foodservice operators, this Lumapack box is offered with a focus on supply reliability, flat-pack storage efficiency, and plain-paper recyclable construction.

Plain-paper, no plastic construction

Unlike food boxes supplied with plastic windows or film panels, the Lumapack small corrugated fish and chips box is a plain corrugated paper product made from plant-based, renewable materials. This supports straightforward disposal through standard paper recycling streams where clean and uncontaminated, and avoids the mixed-material separation step that window or film-fronted boxes require.

Corrugated structure built for hot fried food

Many entry-level food boxes use flat board that softens quickly under hot, freshly fried items. The fluted corrugated construction of this box holds its shape when filled, supports stacking in delivery bags, and contributes to a heat-retention design that helps food arrive in good condition.

Part of a complete size range

The small format sits within a full fish and chips box range including medium, large, and extra large options, allowing operators to standardise on one supplier and one box style across an entire menu while matching each portion to the right size.
