Plastic tray standard 250 gr package 3000

A staple in the catering and takeaway industry, the 250g tray is the universal lunch portion: a generous size for a light main course (such as quinoa with vegetables, tabbouleh, pesto pasta, or fried rice), yet compact enough for an affordable price. This signature format is used by artisanal butchers (for vegetable pâté), office caterers, and urban snack bars offering a "main course + drink" menu. 3,000 units per carton. Made in France from translucent polystyrene.

How to choose the right deli meat tray for your needs?

The rule of thumb for portion size: a 250g tray corresponds to a usable volume of approximately 250ml (the 1g to 1ml equivalence works very well for rigid polystyrene). This size is standard for an individual lunch portion of salad, a daily special, or a snack.

Is the 250g tray microwaveable?

Yes, for short reheating (1 to 2 minutes at medium power). The tray can withstand up to 70°C, so reheating a dish without prolonged overheating is no problem. For longer reheating, transfer the contents to a plate or a heat-resistant tray.

Can the tray be closed with a lid?

Yes, compatible lids are available in the Voussert range. Please contact us for the lid reference corresponding to this weight. A lid ensures a tight seal for transport, home delivery, and cold storage.

Is it recyclable?

Rigid polystyrene (PS) is theoretically recyclable, but the recycling process depends on your local authority. In practice, a tray soiled with greasy or moist food is generally sent to the general waste bin. For an eco-friendly approach, we also offer biodegradable alternatives in our Biodegradable Disposable Tableware range.
