PP Tray 2217 Series – 800 ml Food-Grade Polypropylene Meal Trays

PP Tray 2217 Series

Durable Food-Grade Polypropylene Trays for Professional Foodservice

Designed for high-volume foodservice, takeaway, and centralized meal preparation, the PP Tray 2217 Series offers a practical, cost-efficient packaging solution that balances structural strength, food safety, and operational efficiency. This series includes two height options with identical outer dimensions, allowing food brands to standardize packaging systems while flexibly managing portion sizes.

The 221735 (800 ml) and 221750 (1150 ml) trays share the same footprint and material specifications, differing only in height and capacity. This design minimizes packaging complexity while supporting a wide range of menu formats.

Food-Grade PP Material Advantages

Polypropylene (PP) is widely used in global food packaging due to its excellent balance of safety, durability, and heat resistance. The 2217 Series trays are manufactured using food-contact-safe PP, ensuring consistent performance across various foodservice environments.

Safety & Compliance

• Suitable for direct food contact

• BPA-free

• Low odor and taste-neutral

Thermal Stability

• Suitable for hot food filling

• Microwave reheating compatible when paired with matching lids

• Maintains toughness in refrigerated or frozen conditions

Mechanical Strength

• Higher impact resistance compared with PS or OPS

• Reduced cracking and deformation during transport and stacking

Standardized Design for Operational Efficiency

Both 221735 and 221750 are engineered with identical top dimensions, allowing businesses to operate a unified packaging system:

• Compatible with the same sealing or lidding solutions

• Simplified inventory management

• Reduced tooling and warehousing costs

• Easy portion differentiation without changing tray format

This modular approach is especially beneficial for chain restaurants, airline catering, institutional catering, and meal-prep operations.

Capacity Options and Food Applications

221735 – 800 ml

Ideal for standard single-portion meals and side dishes:

• Lightweight 25 g design lowers transport cost while maintaining rigidity

These features make the trays suitable for platform-based delivery services and high-turnover takeaway operations.

Sustainability and Recycling Considerations

Polypropylene is a widely recycled plastic with established recycling streams in many markets:

• Single-material construction simplifies sorting

• Compatible with PP recycling systems

• Supports transitional sustainability strategies focused on recyclability

For businesses balancing environmental responsibility with performance requirements, PP remains a practical and scalable packaging material.
