BRC Certified 20.3oz/600ml 6.5"x5.3" Aluminum Foil Tray for Family Side Dish & Takeout Entrée

This aluminum tray comes at 6.5 inches by 5.28 inches and holds 600ml, which is roughly 20 ounces. That puts it right between a single portion and a small family side. We see restaurants using it for takeout entrées like baked ziti or chicken alfredo. Meal prep services like it for two portions of stir fry. The depth is 45mm – enough to hold saucy dishes without spilling, but not so deep that it wastes material.

The rim is foldable, so you can close it with a cardboard lid. Works fine for thick sauces and chunky dishes, but keep thin soups out of it. One caterer told us they pack their mac and cheese in these for events. Another uses them for frozen lasagna portions – direct from freezer to oven.

From a production angle, making a tray this size requires a specific die design. The wall thickness has to be consistent, especially around the rim, or the fold won’t hold. Most factories run these on 80 stroke per minute presses. We use 8011 aluminum alloy, which gives good rigidity without being too thick. The finished trays stack nicely – about 1000 pieces fit in a standard carton.

Aluminum recycling is straightforward. Clean off the food, toss it in the recycling bin. Recycled aluminum takes 95% less energy than virgin. Some cities even have dedicated programs for foil trays. For a restaurant looking to reduce plastic, this is an easy win.

This tray is oven safe to 220°C and freezer safe to -20°C. So you can bake a casserole, then freeze leftovers right in the same tray. The 600ml size is also popular for catering side dishes – scalloped potatoes, creamed spinach, that kind of thing.

If you're buying wholesale, we pack 1000 pieces per carton. We hold BRC, FDA, and LFGB certifications – necessary for exporting to Europe and North America. Custom lid printing is available for larger orders.

Whether it's a takeout entrée, a family side dish, or a frozen ready meal, this tray does the job. Simple, recyclable, and reliable.
