Chinese Food Boxes.

The coating and the fold geometry together, since sauce finds every seam a weak fold leaves. Poly-coated paperboard handles grease and liquid across the range, and the oyster pail construction folds the base from one blank so there is no glue line to soften. For the wettest dishes a double poly lining stops a single coat wetting through over a long delivery.

Yes, because an order is usually three to six containers travelling together in one bag. Consistent base footprints stack into a stable column, packing is quicker with one sensible arrangement, and the same artwork across every size reads as one brand at the door. Mixing suppliers breaks the stacking and the look at the same time.

No, the venting is set per dish rather than one specification across the menu. Rice goes gluey without a vent and crispy dishes soften within minutes in a sealed box. Saucy dishes barely care. We tune the perforation container by container, and small sealed sauce pots let the wet components travel on their own, which is the single biggest quality gain in the set.

Classic white is the recognised look and the cleanest print base, with full CMYK or kraft with a spot colour as the alternatives. Kraft suits a contemporary street-food position. Inside print carries reheating guidance where the customer looks, and a dish labelling area on the outside lets the kitchen mark which container holds what on a six-item order.

The 16oz container measures about 3.5 by 3 by 3.75 inches and the 32oz about 4.5 by 3.75 by 4.5 inches. Sizes step by capacity rather than by footprint, and within a set we keep the bases consistent so different capacities still stack. Tell us the portion weights on the menu and we'll map each dish to a container.

500 units per container size is the starting point. The tier pricing kicks in above 1,000. Most operators order the two or three sizes they use most at the minimum and add sauce pots on top, so the first order is typically a mixed set rather than a single line.

A full set takes 7 to 10 business days in standard production and 5 to 7 business days rushed. Samples of each size are ready in 5 to 7 business days so you can stack them, fill them and run a test delivery. The sample cost is deducted from the set order.

Yes, PLA lining replaces the polyethylene across the whole container set. PLA gives comparable grease and liquid resistance for the length of a delivery but needs commercial composting to break down, so it suits operators who already have that collection in place. We keep the set consistent, so every container in the order composts the same way.
