850ml Rectangle Container: Eco-Friendly & Customizable Packaging

Introduction

Sustainability has become a defining trend in the food packaging industry. As consumers grow increasingly conscious about the environmental impact of single-use plastics, food businesses are under pressure to adopt packaging solutions that are not only functional but also eco-friendly. The NWEH-24 (850ml Rectangle Container) by Xiamen Dashan® is an innovative product designed to address this demand. With its generous capacity, durable structure, and biodegradable cornstarch material, it represents the perfect balance between practicality, presentation, and sustainability.

The 850ml size stands out as an ideal option for restaurants, caterers, and delivery services that require larger meal portions without compromising food safety or environmental responsibility. This article will explore the container’s features, benefits, customization options, and how it fits into the broader NWEH series of eco-friendly food containers.

Eco-Friendly Packaging & Market Trends

The foodservice industry has been undergoing a major transformation. Governments worldwide are implementing stricter regulations on single-use plastics, and customers increasingly demand packaging that aligns with eco-conscious values. According to industry research, more than 70% of global consumers prefer to buy from businesses that use sustainable packaging.

Cornstarch-based containers like the 850ml Rectangle Container represent a breakthrough in sustainable packaging. Unlike traditional plastic, cornstarch is:

• 100% biodegradable – naturally breaks down into non-toxic components.

• Compostable – can be disposed of in industrial composting systems.

• Renewable – derived from plant-based resources, reducing reliance on petroleum plastics.

This makes the NWEH-24 an eco-responsible solution that supports both businesses and the environment.

Product Overview – NWEH-24 (850ml)

• Model: NWEH-24

• Capacity: 850ml

• Dimensions: 210 × 140 × 51mm

• Material: Cornstarch (biodegradable and compostable)

• Design: Smooth edges, rolled rim, secure lid closure

Unlike smaller options in the NWEH series, the 850ml Rectangle Container is designed for hearty meals and main courses. The depth and width allow for dishes like rice with multiple side servings, pasta with sauce, or entrée salads. Its sleek, professional finish ensures that meals are presented attractively for both dine-in and takeaway customers.

Key Features & Benefits

1. Biodegradable & Compostable

The container is made from natural cornstarch, ensuring it decomposes in a safe, eco-friendly way. Businesses can confidently serve food knowing their packaging minimizes environmental harm.

2. Leak-Proof & Spill-Resistant

A well-engineered lid fits tightly over the container, preventing spills during transport. This is especially valuable for delivery services where presentation and safety matter most.

3. Oil & Water Resistant

From oily stir-fries to salads with dressings, the 850ml Rectangle Container resists seepage. This ensures meals arrive fresh and intact without staining or softening the packaging.

4. Lightweight but Durable

Though lightweight for convenience, the container is sturdy enough to handle both hot and cold dishes without collapsing or deforming.

5. Heat & Cold Resistant

The container performs reliably in a range of temperatures. It can safely hold hot dishes such as curries or soups and cold items like fruit salads or chilled pasta.

6. Smooth & Professional Design

The NWEH-24 features sleek surfaces and rolled edges, giving it a premium look suitable for professional catering or high-end food retail.

Applications in Food Business

The 850ml Rectangle Container is highly versatile and suits a wide range of food businesses:

• Restaurants & Cafés: Perfect for rice bowls, pasta dishes, and set meals.

• Takeaway & Delivery: Leak-proof design ensures secure delivery for couriers.

• Catering Services: Ideal for distributing larger portions at events or conferences.

• Meal Prep & Diet Programs: Supports portion-controlled healthy meals for fitness brands.

• Supermarkets & Retail: Suitable for pre-packaged meals and grab-and-go food options.

In particular, the 850ml size strikes the right balance: larger than 750ml for extra portions, yet more compact than 1000ml, making it highly adaptable across cuisines and markets.

Why Choose the 850ml Rectangle Container?

The Sweet Spot Between Medium and Large Sizes

While the 750ml model is ideal for medium meals and the 1000ml for extra-large portions, the 850ml capacity is a versatile middle ground. It works for restaurants that want to offer “generous portions” without excessive space.

Supports Food Presentation

The smooth finish of the container allows food to be showcased in an appealing way. This is critical for brands that prioritize customer experience and visual appeal.

Environmentally Responsible

By choosing the NWEH-24, businesses demonstrate a commitment to sustainability, aligning with the growing eco-conscious consumer base.

Customization Options

One of the key advantages of working with Xiamen Dashan® is our flexible customization services. The 850ml Rectangle Container can be tailored to meet your brand’s needs:

• Logo Embossing: Add your company’s logo directly onto the lid or container for brand recognition.

• Color Customization: While the natural cornstarch finish is elegant, other colors are available upon request.

• Branded Sleeves & Labels: Enhance retail presentation with customized sleeves or stickers.

• Special Sizes: For large-scale orders, custom molds and unique sizes can be produced.

This ensures your food packaging not only protects the environment but also strengthens your brand identity.
