Can it be put in a conventional oven?
YES, without restriction up to 220°C. This is the main use of food-grade aluminum: long cooking times, gratinating, browning.
Can it be frozen?
YES. Aluminum withstands negative temperatures perfectly. The "preparation - freezing - oven cooking" process is one of the main professional uses of this type of container.
Is aluminum recyclable?
YES, infinitely. Aluminum is one of the most efficiently recycled materials: direct remelting, minimal losses, and new production of equivalent quality. A CSR argument to highlight for retailers.
Is there a suitable lid available?
Depending on the model, aluminum, cardboard, or plastic lids are available as options. Consult our sales department for the lid reference compatible with this format.
What's the difference with a plastic tray?
Aluminum is intended for oven cooking and freezing; plastic (microwaveable polypropylene or cold-grade APET) is intended for takeout with microwave reheating or for cold serving. Aluminum is 100% recyclable; plastic is sorted separately.
