Colpac Zest Compostable Kraft Salad Boxes 500ml (Pack of 500)

Product No: FP581

Product Description

The Colpac Zest 500ml salad box is a paperboard food-to-go container designed for cold portioned food service. Made from sustainably sourced paperboard with a natural kraft finish, it is certified compostable to EN13432, meaning it can be processed through a commercial composting facility rather than going to landfill — a straightforward step away from single-use plastic for operators who need to make that transition without significant cost pressure.

In practice, these boxes perform reliably with dressed salads, grain bowls, fruit portions, and light snack preparations at counter service or in grab-and-go chilled displays. The paperboard holds its form well under cold conditions, and the kraft presentation is tidy enough to sit on a display shelf or in a chilled cabinet without additional wrapping or labelling.

  • Commercially compostable to EN13432 — suitable for industrial composting streams
  • Sustainably sourced paperboard with a natural kraft finish
  • Supplied in a pack of 500 for consistent volume use
  • Holds form well with cold dressed salads and portioned foods
  • Suitable for counter service, grab-and-go displays, and pre-pack preparation

These are cold-use containers. As with all paperboard packaging, prolonged contact with heavily sauced or wet preparations will affect structural integrity over time, and they are not suitable for microwave use or hot-hold service. They are best used for food that will be consumed within a normal food-to-go timeframe.

They are a practical choice for cafés, delis, workplace catering operations, and food-to-go retailers. For sites with higher throughput or menus requiring a larger portion size, other capacities are available within the Colpac Zest range.

If you are reviewing your disposables across a food-to-go menu and want a hand working through which sizes and formats suit your portion sizes, we are happy to talk it through.
