Delivery Information

Price Match

Notpla square trays are single-use food containers made from a kraft board base with a seaweed-derived inner lining. Unlike standard takeaway trays that rely on a thin layer of petrochemical plastic to resist moisture, these use a 100% natural seaweed coating that performs the same function without the environmental cost. The result is a tray that handles hot, cold, wet, and dry contents without leaking or losing structural integrity — and one that breaks down fully after use without leaving residue.

In a service environment, the trays hold up well across a range of food types: sauced dishes, salads, fried foods, and anything with reasonable moisture content. The construction is firm enough to carry without flexing under a full portion, which matters during busy service when lids are being applied quickly and trays are being handed across a counter or packed into delivery bags. The kraft exterior gives a clean, natural appearance that works well for operators positioning themselves as environmentally considered.

  • Natural seaweed lining resists moisture without petrochemical coatings
  • Suitable for hot, cold, wet, and dry food contents
  • Fully compostable — breaks down without residue
  • Robust construction holds shape under a full portion during service
  • Natural kraft finish suitable for eco-conscious branding

These trays are well suited to street food operators, festival caterers, food-to-go counters, and any site with a sustainability commitment where compostable packaging forms part of the offer. They work best where compostable waste streams are in place — the environmental benefit is largely lost if they go to general waste. For very high-moisture dishes held for extended periods, it is worth testing under your specific conditions before committing to volume. Pack quantity of 600 suits moderate-to-high-volume sites; lower-volume operations may find a smaller pack size more practical.

If you are unsure whether these trays are the right fit for your menu or service format, the team is happy to talk through the options.

Frequently asked questions

Are these trays genuinely compostable or just marketed as eco-friendly?

The Notpla lining is derived from seaweed and breaks down fully in industrial composting conditions without leaving microplastic residue — unlike conventional plastic-coated kraft trays. To get the environmental benefit, they do need to go into a compostable waste stream rather than general waste, so they are best suited to sites that have that infrastructure in place.

How do these trays hold up with sauced or high-moisture dishes?

The seaweed lining provides a genuine moisture barrier that handles typical service conditions well — sauced mains, salads with dressing, and similar dishes are fine. For dishes with very high liquid content held over extended periods, it is worth testing under your specific conditions before committing to a full pack quantity.

Is a pack of 600 the right quantity for a smaller operation?

A 600-pack suits sites with consistent throughput where packaging is used regularly and storage space allows. For lower-volume or seasonal operations, a smaller pack size may be more practical — it is worth checking whether an alternative pack quantity is available to avoid stock sitting unused.
