Catering Aluminium Foil 500mm x 75m (20 Inch) – Pack of 6 Rolls

Extra-Wide Catering Aluminium Foil Rolls 500mm x 75m – Pack of 6

In stock. Keep your professional kitchen supplied with this bulk pack of six catering aluminium foil rolls measuring 500mm x 75m. Designed for restaurants, caterers, takeaways, bakeries and other commercial kitchens, the extra-wide foil is suitable for wrapping, cooking, tray lining, food preparation and short-term storage.

Each roll measures 500mm wide, equivalent to 50cm or approximately 20 inches, and provides 75 metres of aluminium foil. The generous width is particularly useful for covering large catering trays, roasting pans, buffet containers and substantial food portions without overlapping several narrower sheets.

The pack contains six individual rolls, giving a combined foil length of 450 metres. Buying in bulk provides better value for businesses that use foil regularly and helps maintain replacement stock during busy service periods.

The flexible aluminium foil folds closely around food, trays and containers. It provides a useful barrier against grease, cooking juices and external moisture while helping keep food covered during preparation, cooking, holding and transport.

All our catering foil rolls are suitable for professional kitchens. Customers specifically looking for a thicker foil with additional strength should consider our heavy-duty catering foil for heavier wrapping, roasting and tray-lining applications.

For lower-volume use, choose the Catering Aluminium Foil 500mm x 75m – 1 Roll.

Ideal for Large Catering Trays and Roasting Pans

The 500mm width is designed for businesses working with large food portions and wide catering containers. It provides more coverage than compact 300mm foil and can make it easier to cover a tray with one continuous sheet.

Typical applications include:

• Covering large catering trays
• Lining roasting pans and baking trays
• Wrapping substantial joints of meat
• Covering buffet and serving containers
• Preparing large foil parcels
• Wrapping bulk takeaway portions
• Covering cooked food while it rests
• Protecting bakery and catering trays
• Covering prepared food during refrigerated storage
• Protecting food during collection or delivery

Aluminium foil supports organised food preparation but does not replace correct refrigeration, approved hot-holding equipment, hygiene procedures or temperature controls.

Bulk Value for Busy Food Businesses

A pack of six rolls is a practical choice for kitchens that use foil throughout the working day. Replacement rolls can be kept in storage or distributed across different preparation and service areas.

The rolls may be allocated between:

• Main commercial kitchens
• Roasting and hot-food stations
• Bakery preparation areas
• Takeaway packing counters
• Event-catering equipment
• Separate branches or foodservice locations

The multipack reduces the need to purchase replacement rolls individually and may offer better value than buying six single rolls separately.

Extra-Wide 20-Inch Coverage

The 500mm width is especially useful where a smaller roll would require several sheets to cover the same tray. The additional width may help reduce joins, improve coverage and make food preparation more efficient.

It is well suited to:

• Large roasting dishes
• Full-size catering trays
• Buffet pans and serving containers
• Bulk meat and poultry portions
• Large fish portions
• Wide bakery trays
• Event and outside-catering food
• High-volume food preparation

For smaller trays, bowls and individual portions, consider the Catering Aluminium Foil 300mm x 75m – Pack of 6 Rolls.

Standard Catering Foil or Heavy-Duty Foil?

This 500mm foil is a professional catering product suitable for everyday commercial kitchen use. Its key advantage is the extra-wide coverage it provides for large trays and containers.

Standard catering foil is suitable for:

• Routine food wrapping
• Covering trays and dishes
• Lining baking and roasting trays
• Wrapping hot and cold food portions
• General food preparation and storage

Heavy-duty foil is thicker and may be preferable for:

• Heavier food portions
• Large roasting joints
• Food containing bones or firm edges
• More demanding tray-lining tasks
• Repeated folding and handling
• Customers specifically looking for a thicker foil roll

Both standard and heavy-duty foil options are suitable for commercial kitchens. The heavy-duty version simply provides additional thickness and strength where required.

Cooking, Roasting and Grilling

Aluminium foil can help retain moisture and reduce direct exposure during appropriate cooking applications. It may be used to cover roasting dishes, line suitable trays or create foil parcels around food.

When cooking with foil:

• Follow the appliance manufacturer’s instructions
• Keep foil away from exposed heating elements
• Do not allow loose foil to contact an open flame
• Use oven gloves when handling heated foil
• Do not use foil as a replacement for appropriate cookware
• Ensure food reaches the required safe internal temperature

Cooking suitability will depend on the appliance, food type and preparation method.

Food Storage and Transportation

Aluminium foil helps keep prepared food covered during short-term storage and transportation. When wrapped closely, it can help reduce moisture loss and protect food from unnecessary handling and external contamination.

Allow hot food to cool appropriately before refrigerated storage. Always follow your business’s food-safety, storage and temperature-control procedures.

Important Food-Contact Guidance

• Do not use aluminium foil in a microwave oven
• Keep foil away from open flames
• Avoid direct contact with exposed electrical heating elements
• Avoid prolonged contact with highly acidic or heavily salted foods where unsuitable
• Take care when wrapping food containing sharp bones or edges
• Follow the manufacturer’s food-contact and cooking instructions

Storage and Recycling

Store the foil rolls in a clean, dry location away from moisture, corrosive substances and strong odours. Protect the roll edges from damage so the foil continues to unwind smoothly.

Clean aluminium foil may be recyclable where suitable local collection facilities are available. Remove food residue and follow the recycling guidance provided by your local authority or commercial waste contractor.

Foil heavily contaminated with grease, sauce or food residue may not be accepted for recycling and may need to be disposed of as general commercial waste.
