Frequently Asked Questions
What should be checked before approving custom double wall trays?
Buyers should check product size, product weight, tray length, tray width, tray depth, wall height, rollover wall depth, locking tab position, tab slot tolerance, corner squareness, assembly sequence, assembly time, paperboard GSM, paperboard caliper, grain direction, inside printing, print coverage, lamination, soft-touch coating, foil stamping area, embossing area, crease cracking risk, sleeve requirement, lid requirement, sleeve clearance, lid clearance, insert requirement, insert material, food-contact route, sample assembly test, sample fit test, flat packing, carton compression, destination country, and document needs.
Why choose a double wall tray over a standard tray?
A standard single-wall tray leaves a thin raw paper edge exposed. A double wall tray uses rollover side walls to hide the raw edge inside the structure.
Does a double wall tray need glue for assembly?
No. A simplex-style double wall tray can be designed with precise locking tabs, allowing the rollover walls to snap securely into the base.
Does this tray ship flat?
Yes. Because the tray does not require factory pre-gluing, it can ship flat before assembly.
Can I pair the tray with a sleeve or lid?
Yes. The tray can be paired with a printed sleeve, clear PET lid, paperboard lid, or another tray to create different packaging formats.
Can double wall trays be used for bakery or confectionery packaging?
Yes, they can be used for cookies, macarons, chocolates, pastry assortments, and dessert gift sets when the material route is reviewed.
How should I choose paperboard thickness?
Material grade, dimensions and performance direction are selected from the approved product, structure, print, packing and route requirements.
Can I add inserts inside the tray?
Yes. Die-cut paper inserts, molded pulp inserts, foam inserts, corrugated inserts, or custom sectional inserts can be added based on product protection and presentation needs.
How are double wall trays packed for export?
They are usually flat-packed in master cartons to reduce storage and international shipping volume.
What information do you need for a quote?
Please send your product size, tray depth, product weight, sleeve or lid requirement, insert requirement, material preference, artwork file, expected quantity, and delivery country.
