Aluminium Foil Trays with Lids for Takeaways

• Rectangular foil trays: Useful for curries, rice, pasta, ready meals and individual portions.
• Square foil containers: Suitable for baked dishes, larger portions and sharing meals.

Matching lids may be included or sold separately, depending on the individual product. Always check the container dimensions and lid compatibility before ordering.

Disposable Aluminium Foil Trays for Baking & Roasting

Aluminium foil trays are widely used in commercial kitchens for baking, roasting and oven-ready meals. Aluminium conducts heat efficiently and is suitable for many oven applications when used according to the manufacturer's instructions.

Common applications include:

• Lasagne, pasta bakes and prepared meals.
• Roasted vegetables, meat and poultry dishes.
• Curries, rice dishes and hot takeaway portions.
• Pies, pastries and bakery products.
• Batch cooking and catering preparation.
• Buffet service and large-scale food transport.

Important: Always check the individual product's oven-temperature guidance. Cardboard lids must not be assumed to be oven-safe, and foil trays should not be used in a microwave unless the appliance manufacturer specifically permits it.

Choosing the Right Foil Container Size

Different dishes require different tray dimensions, depths and capacities. Choosing the correct foil container can help with portion control, stacking and more efficient takeaway service.
