A sort of microwave packaging called a microwave tray is used to microwave-cook food. Ceramic, glass, metal, paper, and polymer are all materials used to make microwave trays. It offers the greatest compatibility for customers who want to reheat food in its packaging due to heat resistant properties. Food may be heated at high temperatures in microwave trays without sacrificing its quality.
By transferring heat between the food and the oven in a secure manner, microwave trays enhance the heating effectiveness of the device. For outdoor use, microwave trays can retain heat for a very long period. Direct food contact with the oven is provided by microwave trays, which shorten the time it takes to heat food. Excellent insulation and heat retention qualities are offered by microwave trays. It also safeguards against food being heated in an oven.
The global microwave trays market accounted for $XX Billion in 2023 and is anticipated to reach $XX Billion by 2030, registering a CAGR of XX% from 2024 to 2030.
Trayforma is a new wood fiber-based material composition from Stora Enso that is intended for packaging microwaveable food trays. The renewable material has less of a carbon footprint than conventional meal trays and is devoid of PET and polypropylene.
The material is widely recyclable in the majority of the current carton packaging recycling programs because it includes up to 95% wood fibres. Because PET is safe for heating, microwaveable meals are frequently packaged in these trays. The carbon impact of each tray is reduced thanks to Stora Enso's Trayforma material, which swaps out fossil-based plastics for renewable, lightweight paperboard. Brand owners and retailers selling microwave-ready meals can follow through on their promises to the circular economy by switching to recyclable, low-carbon trays.
Fine fish is served in microwave-safe trays. The product line features raw, uncooked seafood in dishes such shrimp with penne pasta, shrimp and scallop scampi, giant filled shrimp, lemon dill tilapia, and salmon fillet. The molded Microrite trays are aluminum and polyester, laminated to a paperboard base, and specially designed to achieve quick, even, through-and-through microwave heating while keeping the products wet and soft.
They use a patterned 7-micron foil laydown to encourage the best possible heating and shielding. The 400-g tray is roughly 6"Lx 5"Wx 1"D in size. The 900-g trays have dimensions of roughly 8"Lx 6"Wx 1"D.
