The best takeaway food container keeps meals hot or cold, stops leaks and looks good when it reaches your customer. Pick the food first, then the material, then the size.
Use round plastic takeaway containers for soups, curries and sauces. Use rectangle takeaway containers for rice, pasta, salads and meal prep. Our freezer grade range suits food you want to store. Kraft takeaway boxes suit burgers, chips, snacks and baked goods. For cold and display food, clear clamshell containers let customers see what they are buying. Serving more than one dish? Try bento boxes. For noodles, see our plastic noodle bowls.
| Material | Good for | Heat guide |
|---|---|---|
| PP (polypropylene) | Hot meals, reheating, freezing | Up to about 110°C, microwave safe |
| PET and OPS (clear plastic) | Cold food, salads, sushi, display | PET up to about 60°C, OPS up to about 75°C |

Temperatures are a guide. Check each product label before you buy.
As a rough guide, 8oz (240ml) holds sauces, sides and desserts. 16oz (470ml) suits soups and small meals, and 20oz (590ml) suits larger soups and curries. For rice, pasta and salads, look at 500ml to 750ml. Choose 1000ml to 1500ml for big meals and meal prep. If in doubt, size up so lids close properly.
Many of our round containers are sold as bases, so add the matching lid to your order. A good fit stops leaks during delivery and keeps food fresh.
Kraft paper and sugarcane are popular with venues that want to use less plastic. Foam (expanded polystyrene) food containers are banned in NSW, Victoria, Queensland and other states, so choose paper, sugarcane or plastic alternatives. Rules differ by state, so check the latest rules where you trade.
