Specifications
Material
Even when heated to high temperatures, aluminum foil does not melt, change shape, or release unpleasant odours into the food it contains. Thus, it can be used for grilling or cooking over an open fire.
Our trays are made of non-toxic aluminum to ensure your food will stay undamaged. Many different kinds of containers utilize aluminum foil, including food storage containers, bins, bottle caps, and soft packaging for liquids or bulk foods. Our aluminum trays are also recyclable. According to a report from EPA (Environmental Protection Agency), 35% of aluminum packaging and foil were recycled in 2018.
Paper-based food packaging is growing in primary and secondary forms. In 2017, the Athens Journal of Business and Economics reported that paper and paperboards made up 31% of the global packaging market and were mostly used in food packaging.
So, Patek Packaging offers paper lids that can be used with the trays. These paper lids are carefully crafted to fit our trays, ensuring a tight seal that will keep your food products fresh and flavourful. We use high-quality, food-grade paper to make our lids.

Frequently Asked Questions
Is it safe to store acidic foods in aluminum containers?
Aluminum can store most foods, but highly acidic foods like tomato sauce or citrus-based dishes may discolour or taste metallic if left in contact with aluminum. For long-term storage of acidic foods in aluminum containers, use parchment paper or plastic wrap.
Can you wash aluminum trays using vinegar?
Yes, you can wash aluminum trays using vinegar. To clean aluminum easily:
- Use vinegar or vinegar essence, like you would with acidic fruit.
- For aluminum pans, boil water with a bit of vinegar, or soak smaller utensils in a vinegar-water mixture.
- Make a paste of vinegar, salt, and flour, and apply it to aluminum trays or containers. Let it sit for 15 minutes, then wipe off to reveal shiny aluminum.
- Dribble vinegar onto a soft cloth, rub the surface, and then use a soft brush for a quick clean. Finish with a damp cloth, rinse, and dry.
Can I freeze trays and containers made of aluminum?
You can store leftovers or pre-made meals in the freezer with ease using aluminum trays and containers because they are freezer-safe. Make sure the containers are tightly sealed to avoid freezer burn.
