Product Description
These 800ml kraft takeaway boxes from Notpla are a practical alternative to conventional disposable food packaging. Rather than using a petrol-based plastic coating to make the box moisture-resistant, Notpla line theirs with a natural seaweed-derived material. The result is a box that handles hot, cold, wet, and dry food without leaking, and that breaks down fully after use — behaving, as the manufacturer puts it, much like fruit peel rather than leaving microplastic residue behind.
In operational terms, the boxes perform reliably across the kind of contents a typical takeaway or food-to-go operation sends out: noodle dishes, rice boxes, salads, hot food portions, and similar. The leakproof lining means saucy or moist dishes travel without compromising the box structure, which matters when customers are carrying food away or when delivery riders are handling multiple bags. The kraft board construction keeps its shape reasonably well under normal service conditions.
From a practical standpoint, the main operational advantages are:
- Fully compostable — accepted by industrial composting facilities
- Leakproof seaweed lining handles wet and oily food contents
- No petrol-based coatings — meets growing operator and consumer demand for lower-impact packaging
- Kraft construction provides adequate rigidity for transport
- Available in 500-unit packs, suited to moderate-to-high-volume takeaway service
It is worth confirming with your local waste contractor that they accept industrially compostable packaging, as collection and processing infrastructure varies across UK regions. These boxes are not designed for oven or microwave use by the end customer.
These boxes are well suited to independent takeaways, food-to-go operators, street food traders, and catering businesses looking to move away from plastic-coated disposables without compromising on leakproof performance. If your operation runs at very high volume and you require larger pack sizes or different capacities, it is worth exploring the wider Notpla range.
If you are unsure whether these suit your service style or portion sizes, our team is happy to talk it through with you.

Frequently Asked Questions
- These boxes are certified as industrially compostable, but collection and processing infrastructure varies across UK local authorities and waste contractors. We would recommend confirming with your specific waste contractor that they accept industrially compostable packaging before switching over, as not all kerbside or commercial collections currently process this material.
- The seaweed lining makes them suitable for wet, saucy, oily, and hot food portions — rice dishes, noodles, curries, and similar takeaway staples are all well within their capability. They are not intended for oven or microwave reheating by the end customer, so if your food is likely to be reheated in the container, you may want to advise customers accordingly or consider an alternative format.
- At 800ml, these boxes sit in the range commonly used for single main-course portions — a standard rice and curry serve, a noodle box, or a generous salad portion, for example. If your portions run consistently larger, or if you need a smaller format for sides and snacks, it is worth looking at the other capacities in the Notpla range to make sure you are matching the box to the dish rather than adjusting portion size to fit the packaging.
