Case Study: Real Business, Real Results
The Garden Kitchen, a popular lunch spot in York, was looking to improve its takeaway service. Their existing packaging was functional but didn't reflect the quality of their freshly made food, often hiding it from view until the customer got back to the office.
"We switched to these windowed boxes and the difference was immediate. Customers could see the quality of our salads and hot pots straight away. They just look so much more appealing in the chiller, and people are definitely buying with their eyes!"
Robert Green – Head Chef
Since making the change, The Garden Kitchen has seen a 20% increase in sales of its pre-prepared takeaway meals, with many customers commenting on the improved packaging.
Installation and Maintenance Guide
Getting Them Ready
- These boxes arrive flat-packed to save you precious storage space.
- They are quick and easy to assemble – it’s worth pre-folding a batch before a busy service starts.
- Designate a clean, dry shelf or area for storage, away from moisture or strong odours.
- Ensure hands are clean and dry when assembling boxes to maintain hygiene standards.
Keeping Them Perfect
- Practice a 'first in, first out' system to keep your stock rotated.
- Keep the bulk outer case sealed until you need to restock to protect from dust.
- Store away from direct sunlight, which can degrade materials over a long period.
- Regularly wipe down the storage area to ensure maximum cleanliness.

Explore more from HuhtamakiMore Than Just Cardboard: Why a PET Lining is Crucial
Ever wondered what stops a box full of lovely, saucy bolognese from turning into a soggy mess? The secret is the PET lining. On its own, cardboard is absorbent, but these Huhtamaki Taste food to go boxes have a micro-thin, food-safe plastic film (Polyethylene Terephthalate) bonded to the inside. Think of it as a built-in, invisible raincoat for your food. This clever layer creates a complete barrier against grease, oil, and moisture. It means your sauces stay in, the box stays rigid and strong, and the food's heat is locked inside for longer, ensuring a far better experience for your customer.
