This is the tray everyone pictures: a rigid paperboard boat with folded corners that holds its shape in one hand. The board is heavy enough that it does not flex when someone walks with it, which is the whole job — a tray that bends drops its contents.

It is the cheapest per unit of anything we make and the highest volume, so it is where a logo earns the most impressions per dollar. Printing is food-safe ink applied to the outside of the board, never on the surface the food touches.

Who this style suits

High-volume concession

Lowest cost per tray, so the branding cost per customer is tiny.

One-handed service

Rigid board does not flex when a customer walks away with it.

Fast counters

Stacks tight and separates cleanly under pressure.

Questions about paperboard hot dog trays

Is the printing food safe?

Yes. We use food-safe inks printed on the outside of the board, never on the surface that touches the food.

Will the tray bend when carried?

No. The board is specified heavy enough to hold its shape one-handed, which is exactly where thin trays fail.

What is the minimum order?

Our minimum order is just 12 trays, with bulk pricing tiers as quantities grow.

How long does production take?

2 weeks (faster turnaround available with express shipping), starting once you approve your free mockup.
