Case Study: Real Business, Real Results
The Salty Cod, a popular seaside chippy in Aberystwyth, was struggling with limited storage space for their bulky, pre-formed takeaway packaging. They also wanted to respond to growing customer requests for more sustainable options.
"We switched to these Fiesta flat-pack cartons and the difference was instant. They're dead easy to make up, even during the Friday night rush, and they hold up really well. Our customers have noticed the switch to recyclable packaging and we've had great feedback."
Rhys Williams – Owner
The move freed up nearly 60% of their packaging storage shelf, allowing them to stock up on other essentials and streamline their operation.
Installation and Maintenance Guide
Setting It Up
- Store the main box in a cool, dry place away from moisture to keep the cartons pristine.
- Only take out and assemble what you need for a service to keep the rest clean and flat.
- Assembly is intuitive – simply squeeze the sides and the carton will pop into shape.
- Stack the assembled cartons near your fry station for quick and easy access during busy periods.
Keeping It Going
- These cartons are designed for single use. Please do not attempt to wash or reuse them.
- Advise your customers to place the empty carton in a paper/card recycling bin.
- Avoid using them in a microwave or oven as they are not designed for reheating.
- While great for greasy foods, avoid leaving very wet sauces sitting in them for extended periods.
Frequently Asked Questions
Q: Are these chip cartons actually recyclable?
A: Yes, they are made from paperboard which is widely recycled across the UK. We always recommend checking with your local waste collection service for their specific guidelines.
Q: Do they come already made up?
A: No, they are supplied flat-packed to save a significant amount of storage space. They are designed to be assembled quickly and easily as you need them.
Q: What are the dimensions of one carton?
A: Each medium carton measures 119mm (H) x 44mm (W) x 84mm (D) when assembled.
Q: How many cartons are in one case?
A: Each case contains 1000 flat-packed cartons.
Q: Can I use these for food with lots of sauce, like cheesy chips?
A: They are best suited for greasy or dry foods. While they can handle a small amount of sauce, very wet toppings may cause the paperboard to soften if left for a long time.
Q: Are these cartons compostable?
A: These are designed to be recyclable. While paperboard is a natural material, for it to be certified as 'compostable' it requires specific testing. We market these as recyclable chip cartons for restaurants.
Q: Can I put these in the microwave?
A: No, these paperboard cartons are not suitable for use in a microwave or conventional oven.
Q: What colour are they?
A: They come in a natural, rustic brown Kraft finish, which provides an attractive and modern presentation for your food.

Ever wondered how you can store thousands of chip cartons without needing a whole new stockroom? The answer is the 'flat-pack' design. Think of it like buying a wardrobe from IKEA. Instead of a huge, bulky box, you get a slim, compact package that's easy to carry and store. These takeaway chip cartons recyclable boxes arrive in a neat, flat stack.

When you're ready to serve, you simply grab a flat carton, give it a quick squeeze and a fold, and it pops into a rigid, ready-to-use container in seconds. It’s a simple feature that saves you space, reduces delivery costs, and keeps your service area tidy and efficient.
