About Paper Bowls
Did you know that paper bowls have existed for more than 100 years? They were invented in the early 1900s, but during that time, they were primarily used to serve ice cream. Over time, paper bowls gained popularity and were even used to serve other food items. Due to a material shortage, these bowls were also an alternative to ceramic bowls during World War II.
Today, these bowls have evolved, with many eco-friendly options for storing, serving, and delivering food with varying styles and designs. Due to their demand in food businesses and home use, Patek Packaging now provides more paper bowl options that cater to every need.

Frequently Asked Questions
How is Kraft paper made?
Kraft paper stands out thanks to its unique production process. A special solution combining hot water, sodium hydroxide, and sodium sulphide breaks down wood components during pulping, resulting in strong paper. To enhance its flexibility and absorbency, the paper undergoes microcreping, which lengthens the fibres. Two main types are commonly used in packaging:
-
Normal kraft paper: Strong and affordable, ideal for general packaging needs.
-
Sack kraft paper: Extra strong and tear-resistant, perfect for heavy-duty packaging.
Can you use paper for hot soup?
These microwave-safe paper bowls are ideal for reheating leftovers, takeout, or holding hot soups and meals. Whether you're stocking your office pantry, school cafeteria, food truck, or home kitchen, the generous pack of 500 offers ample supply for any occasion.
How are paper bowls manufactured?
The manufacturing of a paper bowl begins with a simple roll of paper. Here's the usual process in these steps:
-
Lamination: A thin film layer is applied to the paper, giving it water resistance and strength.
-
Die-cutting: Precise shapes for the bowl walls and bottom are punched from the printed paper.
-
Moulding: The cutouts are shaped and pressed into the final paper bowl form.
