How to Choose the Right Disposable Food Containers
Size and portions
Start with your most popular dishes and choose pack sizes to suit them. Over-sized packaging wastes money and looks empty; too small risks spills and poor reviews. Many disposable food containers come in multiple sizes, so sample one case before committing to bulk.
Choosing materials
Paper-based and compostable materials work well for venues with eco-conscious customers, while plastic and foil are still the value choice for busy kitchens. Check heat resistance for hot food, grease-proofing for fried menus, and microwave-safety if customers reheat at home. UK single-use plastic rules restrict some lines — our range is fully compliant.
Cost per serve, not per case
Compare products on cost per serve rather than case price. More units per case frequently beats a cheaper headline price. Our quantity discounts cut the per-unit price as you add cases, and part-box options let smaller businesses try lines without tying up cash.
Storage and shelf life
Packaging need shelf space — plan around what you can store instead of one giant quarterly drop. Cases are labelled with counts and dimensions so you can work out storage before ordering. Use older cases first and keep paper-based lines away from damp to protect them.
Bulk Buying & Trade Accounts
Each line has automatic quantity discounts — prices step down as volume rises. Gateshead customers ordering weekly can contact us for account terms, and our current deals page lists clearance and seasonal offers. VAT invoices are issued automatically for your records.
