Plastic Fruit Storage Trays for Freshness & Protection

Fruit storage trays are specialized trays designed for storing fruits in refrigerators, pantries, or display cases, prioritizing freshness preservation and organization. These trays are typically made from durable plastics like PP (polypropylene) or PET (polyethylene terephthalate), chosen for their moisture resistance, ease of cleaning, and ability to protect fruits from bruising. They often feature a flat base with raised edges to contain any moisture, and some include ventilation slots or holes to promote air circulation, which helps to reduce ethylene gas buildup and prevent mold growth—key factors in extending fruit shelf life. Fruit storage trays come in various sizes and configurations, from small trays for berries or cherries to larger trays for apples, oranges, or bananas. Compartmentalized designs are common, allowing users to separate different types of fruits or prevent overcrowding, which can lead to spoilage. The trays are designed to be stackable, optimizing storage space in refrigerators, and many are dishwasher-safe for easy maintenance. Transparent or semi-transparent options allow users to view contents without removing the tray, reducing the need to open the refrigerator door frequently. Manufactured from food-grade materials, fruit storage trays are free from harmful chemicals, ensuring safety for direct contact with fruits. They are widely used in households, restaurants, and food service establishments, providing an organized and effective solution for keeping fruits fresh and accessible.
