Airline Meal Trays

Application

Oven-Ready Food-Grade Freezer-Safe Microwave-Safe Custom Printed OEM / ODM
Why It Matters

Why inflight meal trays have to do more than hold food

An airline meal moves from kitchen to oven to cold-chain cart to aircraft galley. The tray has to control portions, survive reheating and chilling, resist leaks in motion, and stay consistent across thousands of meals a day.

01

Portion Control

Single, three and four-compartment layouts separate mains, sides and desserts so every meal is consistent and presentable.

02

Heat & Cold Performance

Aluminum and coated structures are selected for oven reheating, chilled storage and onboard service.

03

Leak Resistance

Rolled-rim edges and lidding structures keep sauces and liquids contained during transport and turbulence.

04

High-Volume Consistency

Stable dimensions and repeatable forming across every production batch, carton after carton.

Meal Tray Types

From economy to business class, each structure is matched to the meal, the reheating method and the galley workflow.
