Case Study: Real Business, Real Results
Based in Bristol, 'The Wrap Shack' needed to upgrade their takeaway food trays. Their previous supplier's trays were flimsy and often buckled under the weight of their loaded wraps and salads, leading to occasional customer complaints and a less-than-premium feel.
"We switched to the Huhtamaki Taste large food trays and the difference was instant. They're rock-solid, look professional, and we've had customers comment on how much easier they are to eat from. No more soggy bottoms or complaints, just happy customers."
Michael Davies – Owner, The Wrap Shack
The switch resulted in a noticeable drop in packaging-related issues and helped improve their service speed during the hectic lunch rush by over 15%.

Setting It Up

Keeping It Going

- After use, encourage customers to dispose of them in mixed recycling bins where facilities exist.

Explore more from HuhtamakiWhat Does 'PET Lined' Actually Mean for Your Business?
You see 'PET lined' on lots of packaging, but what does it really do? Think of it as a super-thin, invisible waterproof jacket on the inside of the paperboard. PET (Polyethylene terephthalate) is a type of food-safe plastic that's laminated onto the board. This creates a completely non-porous barrier. For your business, this means that oil from fries, sauce from a curry, or dressing from a salad simply can't soak through. It stops the tray from becoming weak, soggy, or greasy to the touch. This simple feature is what turns a standard paper tray into a reliable container that protects your food, prevents messes, and gives your customers a much cleaner, more pleasant eating experience.
