Leakproof Plastic Meat Trays for Fresh & Secure Packaging

Meat tray containers are hybrid packaging solutions combining the structure of a tray with the functionality of a container, designed to store, display, and transport meat products while maintaining freshness. These containers typically feature a rigid tray base with raised edges to contain meat juices, paired with a secure-fitting lid that creates a seal to lock in freshness and prevent cross-contamination. Made from durable plastics like PET (polyethylene terephthalate) or PP (polypropylene), they are built to withstand the weight of meat without bending and resist moisture to prevent leakage. Meat tray containers come in various sizes, from small containers for individual portions to large ones for family-sized roasts, with options for transparency to allow consumers to view the meat’s quality, color, and texture. The lids may be snap-on or hinged, and some are designed to be tamper-evident, providing an extra layer of security. These containers are compatible with refrigeration and can be used with Modified Atmosphere Packaging (MAP) by flushing the container with a controlled gas mixture before sealing, further extending shelf life. They are stackable to optimize storage space in refrigerators and display cases, and many are microwave-safe (PP variants), allowing consumers to reheat meat directly in the container. Manufactured from food-grade materials, meat tray containers are free from BPA and harmful chemicals, ensuring safety for direct contact with meat. They are widely used in supermarkets, butchers, and delis, offering a convenient, hygienic solution for packaging meat products.
