With a footprint of 215mm × 195mm and a height of 65mm, it provides a practical single-container solution for burgers, hot meals, and square-format portions.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis format is widely selected where a compact square container is needed for burgers, bao buns, grilled portions, and similar square-footprint food items. The integrated hinged clamshell design closes securely without a separate lid, allowing rapid packing during busy service periods while keeping contents stable during transport. It is suitable for both hot and cold food applications and is microwavable and freezer safe, making it well suited to meal-prep and delivery-led kitchen operations.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe box is manufactured from sugarcane fibre (bagasse), a renewable plant-based material produced as a by-product of sugarcane processing. It contains no PE lining, no PFAS-added coatings, and no BPA, and is suitable for direct food contact under UK market requirements.
