Fast Food & Cafeteria Trays

The Cambro handled fast food tray is a straightforward, practical carry tray intended for cafeteria, canteen, and fast food service environments, available in Black and Red. Made from polypropylene, it is lightweight enough for customers to carry comfortably when fully loaded, while the integrated handles at each end make it easier to grip, particularly useful in self-service settings where customers may be managing a full tray across a busy service floor.

The corners are built with additional material thickness, which reinforces the areas most likely to take impact during daily use. The textured surface helps to conceal minor surface marks that accumulate through normal service, keeping trays looking presentable over an extended working life. The stacking profile is designed to allow a small gap between trays when nested, which promotes air circulation and more effective drying after washing, a practical consideration in any operation running a high tray throughput.

The polypropylene construction is tolerant of commercial dishwasher cycles and handles both chilled and hot-hold environments within its rated temperature range of -10°C to 80°C, making it flexible across different service contexts.

• Reinforced corners reduce edge damage during high-volume daily use
• Integrated handles improve grip and comfort for customers carrying loaded trays
• Textured surface maintains a presentable appearance through normal service wear
• Stacking profile encourages airflow between trays for cleaner, quicker drying
• Black and Red colours support colour coding of service areas
• Suitable for cafeteria, canteen, staff restaurant, and fast food counter service

This tray is well suited to standard cafeteria and canteen operations. For very high-volume sites or operations requiring a larger tray footprint, it is worth checking whether an alternative size or format would better match your service setup. If you are unsure which tray specification suits your operation, the team is happy to help.

The Cambro Versa Lite is a lightweight polyester canteen tray for cafeteria, canteen and fast-food service. It is available in two sizes, 430 x 330mm and 460 x 360mm, both in a speckled smoke finish. The 430 x 330mm size sits within the standard tray format used across most self-service counters, and the 460mm size accommodates a full meal cover comfortably.

Polyester trays are a common sight in staff canteens, school dining rooms, hospital catering and high-throughput cafeteria lines. The speckled smoke finish helps mask the minor surface marks that build up in busy service.

• Stacking lugs keep trays separated in the stack, so air can circulate and trays dry faster after the dishwasher
• Reinforced corners and edge protection extend service life under the knocks of a busy counter
• Rated from -40°C to 130°C, so it handles cold-hold and hot-hold service without warping
• Dishwasher safe, compatible with standard commercial rack washers
• Lightweight, which reduces fatigue on long service runs
• Two sizes: 430 x 330mm and 460 x 360mm

Polyester trays can scratch over time if they pass through a dishwasher alongside heavy cutlery or metal components without proper racking. Surface cosmetics will wear before structural integrity does, which is worth factoring into your replacement planning. Confirm the size you choose against your cafeteria rails and tray dispensers before ordering in quantity.

These trays suit medium to high-volume cafeteria and canteen operations. For very high daily covers or demanding environments, a fibreglass tray may offer a longer service life. If you are unsure which suits your operation, we are happy to help you work it through.

The Cambro Capri is a laminate canteen tray widely used in cafeterias, staff restaurants, school dining halls and similar high-turnover food service environments. It is available in two sizes, 430 x 330mm and 460 x 360mm, and in three finishes: Birch, Granite and Mahogany. Choose the finish and size from the options on this page.

Laminate trays of this type are a practical choice for busy self-service operations. The surface resists everyday knocks, scratches and staining, and holds up to the repeated handling of high-volume service. The laminate works from -10°C to 100°C, so it can carry chilled and hot-served items during normal service without warping or discolouring.

• Lightweight enough for easy handling throughout a meal period
• Surface cleans quickly, supporting fast tray turnaround between sittings
• Resistant to staining from common canteen foods and beverages
• Consistent sizing makes stacking and trolley storage predictable
• Three finishes: Birch, Granite and Mahogany
• Two sizes: 430 x 330mm and 460 x 360mm

The 430 x 330mm size is one of the most common canteen tray sizes and suits standard counter layouts. The 460 x 360mm size is large enough for a full meal with a drink and suits tray-slide counters. Measure your counter rails or tray slides before ordering in volume. These trays suit staff canteens, school dining halls, hospital catering and fast-turnaround cafeterias. For particularly heavy-duty use, such as outdoor use or environments where trays take significant abuse, a heavier-gauge or fibreglass tray may last longer.

If you are fitting out a new cafeteria line or refreshing tray stock and want to talk through sizes, quantities or finishes, the team is happy to help.

The Cambro Madeira is a laminate canteen tray with a woodgrain surface finish, made from food-grade melamine laminate that is safe for direct food contact. It is available in two sizes, 430 x 330mm and 460 x 360mm, and in woodgrain finishes including Light Oak, Brown Oak and Light Olive. Dark Oak is available in the 460 x 360mm size. Choose the finish and size from the options on this page.

The laminate is more resistant to chipping and surface wear than plain plastic trays, and the woodgrain texture helps mask minor scuffs in high-throughput cafeterias. The trays are light enough for customers of all ages to carry a full lunch setting, and are rated from -10°C to 100°C for chilled and hot food service.

• Food-grade melamine laminate, safe for food contact
• Woodgrain finish gives a more considered look than plain trays
• Lightweight enough for comfortable carrying
• Rated from -10°C to 100°C, suitable for chilled and hot service
• Two sizes: 430 x 330mm and 460 x 360mm

Laminate trays are not suited to very high dishwasher temperatures over extended periods, as repeated thermal cycling can affect the laminate bond. Check your warewasher temperature against the tray's rated range before ordering in volume, and measure your tray slides, dispensers or trolleys against the size you choose.

These trays suit staff restaurants, hospital cafeterias, school canteens and self-service operations that want a more presentable alternative to standard polypropylene trays. For very high-volume sites where trays take heavy daily punishment, a heavier-duty tray may last longer. If you want to talk through quantities, finishes or compatibility with your tray slides, the team is happy to help.

The Cambro 410mm polypropylene fast food tray is a standard cafeteria and canteen tray designed for everyday high-volume use, available in Black, Green and Red. Made from polypropylene, it is lightweight enough for customers to carry comfortably when fully loaded, and robust enough to withstand the repeated handling that comes with busy service periods.

In practice, these trays perform well in environments where trays are in constant rotation: school canteens, hospital catering, staff restaurants, and fast food counters. The textured surface helps to conceal the fine surface marks that accumulate with regular use, which means trays stay presentable for longer without requiring early replacement. Reinforced corners add structural integrity where trays are most likely to take knocks.

From an operational standpoint, a few features are worth noting:

• Textured surface masks everyday scratching, maintaining a clean appearance over time
• Reinforced corners resist edge damage during stacking and handling
• Stacking profile allows slight air separation, supporting effective drying between service periods
• Polypropylene construction is dishwasher safe and tolerates the temperature range typical of commercial warewashing
• Black, Green and Red colours support colour coding of service areas
• Consistent sizing makes them straightforward to store and manage in bulk

There are no installation requirements. These trays arrive ready for immediate use. They are rated for use between -10°C and 80°C and are not intended for direct oven or microwave use. The main practical consideration is volume: operators running high-turnover services should assess how many trays are needed in circulation to maintain flow during peak periods without running short.

This tray is well suited to mid-scale canteen and cafeteria operations. For very high-volume sites or environments with particularly demanding handling requirements, a heavier-duty tray format may be worth considering.

If you are unsure how many trays your operation needs or whether this size is the right fit for your tray rail or counter setup, we are happy to talk it through.

The Cambro Camtray is a fibreglass rectangular serving tray designed for continuous use in cafeteria, canteen, and fast food environments. Each pack contains twelve trays in your choice of Blush or Purple, each measuring 360x460mm, a practical mid-size format that works well for both meal service and beverage runs.

Fibreglass construction gives these trays a reliable balance of lightness and robustness. They hold up well under the repeated handling, stacking, and dishwasher cycles that are a fact of life in high-turnover service operations. The smooth surface keeps cleaning straightforward and resists the staining that can affect cheaper tray materials over time.

• Fibreglass construction resists warping, cracking, and heavy daily use
• Smooth surface wipes down quickly and tolerates commercial dishwashing
• Stackable design keeps storage tidy and accessible during service
• Two colours, Blush and Purple, support tray management across different service areas
• Sold as a 12-pack, providing a practical starting quantity for most operations

In terms of installation or setup, there is nothing complex here. These trays require no fixed connection or preparation. The main practical consideration is ensuring you have adequate tray storage or trolley space. For higher-volume sites running multiple sittings per day, a larger initial quantity may be worth considering to avoid trays sitting in the wash when they are needed on the floor.

These trays are well suited to schools, hospitals, staff canteens, quick-service restaurants, and any operation running a tray-based service system. If your throughput is particularly high or you need a different size format, it is worth checking whether an alternative tray size or a bulk pack quantity would serve you better.

If you are unsure about quantities or colour coding across a larger tray fleet, the team are happy to help you work it out.

The Cambro Versa wood grain tray is a plastic food service tray designed to give the appearance of natural timber while retaining the durability and practicality that commercial self-service environments demand. It comes in Light Oak, Dark Oak and Light Olive. The wood grain texture runs across the full surface, top and bottom, giving a consistent aesthetic without the maintenance or hygiene concerns associated with real wood.

In busy cafeteria and self-service settings, trays take considerable punishment from repeated use, stacking, and cleaning. Cambro's Versa range is built with this in mind: the construction holds up well under daily high-volume throughput without losing its surface finish prematurely. The textured surface also provides a degree of grip, which is a practical consideration when trays are being carried loaded across a busy servery.

Key practical qualities of this tray include:

• Full-coverage wood grain texture on both surfaces for a consistent rustic appearance
• Designed for commercial food service use, with regular machine washing in mind
• Textured surface improves grip during loaded carrying
• Supplied in a 12-pack, practical for stocking a full servery operation
• Three wood grain finishes to coordinate with different interior schemes

These trays are well suited to staff restaurants, canteens, fast food operations, and café-style self-service venues where a warmer, more natural aesthetic is preferred over plain-colour trays. They are not intended for high-heat applications such as oven use or direct contact with heat lamps over extended periods, and they are less suited to fine dining or plated-service environments where trays are not part of the service format.

If you are fitting out a new servery or refreshing existing tray stock and would like guidance on quantities or finish options, our team is happy to help you work through the requirements.

The Cambro Versalite tray is a practical polyethylene serving tray for cafeteria, canteen, fast food and self-service environments, supplied in packs of 12. It is available in two sizes: 330x430mm and 360x460mm. The 330x430mm footprint is a well-established standard that fits most cafeteria rails and tray slides.

Polyethylene trays of this type are used in staff canteens, school dining rooms, hospital catering and fast food operations where trays cycle continuously through service, collection and washing. The smooth surface wipes down easily and holds up to the repeated handling of high-volume sites. The light grey finish keeps marks and scratches less visible over a long service life.

• Smooth surface wipes clean quickly between uses
• Light grey finish keeps surface scuffs less visible
• Polyethylene construction is durable under daily high-volume cycling
• Rectangular format suits straight-line and free-flow serveries
• Supplied in packs of 12, practical for stocking a full service line
• Two sizes: 330x430mm and 360x460mm

Check the size you choose against your cafeteria tray slides, rails and collection trolleys before ordering in volume. If you use a commercial dishwasher, check the rack dimensions, as high-temperature wash cycles can cause some warping over time with any polyethylene tray. These trays are not intended for fine dining or plated service. If you are unsure about the right tray size or quantity for your servery, the team is happy to help.

The Olympia Kristallon rectangular tray is a straightforward polypropylene serving tray designed for cafeteria-style food service, canteens, fast food counters, and staff restaurants. It is intended for front-of-house use where customers or service staff carry meals and drinks from a service counter to a table or seating area. It is available in eight colours: black, blue, brown, charcoal, green, grey, red and white.

Polypropylene is a practical choice for this kind of application. It is lightweight enough to handle comfortably when loaded, resists staining from everyday food and drink contact, and holds up well to the repeated handling and stacking that comes with high-turnover service. The textured surface provides a degree of grip that helps reduce the risk of items sliding during transit, a small but useful feature in a busy self-service environment.

From an operational standpoint, trays like this suit settings where speed of service and ease of management matter most. Key practical points include:

• Textured surface reduces sliding of crockery and cups during service
• Polypropylene construction wipes clean quickly and tolerates regular use
• Lightweight for comfortable carrying when fully loaded
• Stackable design supports efficient storage behind the counter
• Eight colours make it easy to colour-code service areas or tray types

There are no installation requirements to consider. These trays stack flat and store easily in tray dispensers or on open shelving. For very high-volume operations running continuous self-service, it is worth considering how many trays you need in rotation to avoid a bottleneck during peak periods.

This tray is well suited to canteens, school dining rooms, hospital cafeterias, and fast food or grab-and-go operations. If you require a larger tray format, or need advice on colours for allergen or dietary zoning, it is worth having a conversation with us to make sure you are ordering the right size and quantity for your setup.

The Olympia Kristallon rectangular tray is a standard polypropylene food service tray used widely in cafeterias, staff canteens, fast food operations, and self-service environments. It is a straightforward, practical item designed to carry crockery, cutlery, and food items along a service counter or back to a table. It is available in eight colours: black, blue, brown, charcoal, green, grey, red and white.

Polypropylene construction makes these trays lightweight and resistant to the daily knocks and stacking pressures of busy service. The textured surface helps reduce the risk of items sliding during transit, which matters when staff or customers are moving quickly through a queue. The choice of colours makes it easy to colour-code service areas or match the look of the environment.

• Textured surface reduces sliding of plates, cups, and glasses
• Lightweight polypropylene handles daily stacking and repeated use reliably
• Easy to wipe down between service periods
• Eight colours suit canteen, fast food, and casual dining settings

These trays are suited to most standard cafeteria and counter-service setups. They are a sensible choice for mid-volume operations where durability and ease of cleaning are the main priorities. For higher-throughput sites with more demanding hygiene regimes or specific tray-return systems, it is worth confirming the size fits your existing tray runners or stacking trolleys before ordering in bulk.

If you are unsure how many trays to stock or whether this size works with your counter layout or tray storage, the team is happy to help you work it out.

The Olympia Kristallon rectangular tray is a polypropylene serving tray designed for everyday use in cafeterias, staff restaurants, fast food operations, and similar self-service environments. Sold singly, it is available in eight colours at this 350x450mm size: black, blue, brown, charcoal, green, grey, red and white.

Polypropylene is a practical choice for commercial food service trays. It is lightweight enough for customers to handle comfortably when loaded, and the material tolerates the repeated handling, stacking, and cleaning that comes with high-turnover service. The textured surface provides a degree of grip that helps reduce the risk of items sliding during service, which is a meaningful consideration in busy or self-service environments where spills slow throughput.

• Textured surface reduces sliding of cups, plates, and bowls during service
• Lightweight polypropylene is easy for customers and staff to handle
• Easy to clean and wipe down between services
• Stackable for compact storage between service periods
• Eight colours to support tray differentiation or colour-coded systems, including allergen or dietary colour-coding

These trays are straightforward to integrate into an existing service setup. No installation is required, though operators running colour-coded systems, for example to separate dietary requirements or service areas, should confirm colour availability across the size range before ordering in volume.

Well suited to cafeterias, canteens, quick-service restaurants, and healthcare or education catering where high volumes of trays are in daily circulation. For operations with particularly demanding throughput or where trays take significant physical wear, a heavier-duty option may be worth considering.

If you are unsure which size or colour works best across your service line, we are happy to talk it through.
