Product Overview

About Corrugated Trays

Custom corrugated trays are low-wall, open-top handling and merchandising bases manufactured from 32 ECT to 48 ECT B-flute, C-flute, and EB double-wall board. Available as hand-erected Roll-End Lock-Corner trays or high-speed machine-glued shrink-wrap pads with rounded anti-puncture corners, they stabilize 12- and 24-packs of aluminum beverage cans, glass sauce jars, produce punnets, and club-store multipacks through heat tunnels and palletized freight. Wholesale orders start at 100 units from $0.55/unit with 10–14 business day turnaround and Always Free DDP Shipping.

Custom corrugated trays serve as the structural backbone of modern beverage co-packing, wholesale bakery distribution, and Costco/Sam's Club pallet merchandising. By combining a rigid low-profile perimeter wall (typically 1.5" to 4" high) with high-ECT vertical fluting, corrugated trays unify loose primary containers—cans, bottles, pouches, and cartons—into a single unitized load that glides smoothly across roller conveyors and heat-shrink bundling tunnels without tearing film on sharp corners.

Tray Architectures, Wet-Strength Liners & Club-Store Graphics

Our packaging engineers tailor sidewall height, corner locking geometry, and liner moisture resistance to your co-packer's line speed and cold-chain conditions:

  • Shrink-Tunnel Beverage & Jar Trays: Precision radiused corners and 1.75"–2.5" sidewalls engineered for automated Tray-Packers running 12-pack and 24-pack craft beer, energy drinks, RTD cocktails, and pasta sauce jars.
  • Roll-End Lock-Corner & Stackable Bakery/Produce Trays: Interlocking corner tabs and optional die-cut hand holes + stacking lugs allow airflow and multi-tier crate stacking without crushing pastries or fresh berries.
  • High-Graphic Litho & Digital Club-Store Trays: Full-color CMYK perimeter skirts keep brand logos, flavor callouts, and UPC barcodes visible beneath clear shrink film on warehouse club pallets.

Wholesale Co-Packer Supply & Always Free DDP Delivery

We supply flat-packed, pallet-strapped corrugated trays directly to your brewery, co-packer, or distribution center. Wholesale orders start at 100 units from $0.55/unit with free CAD dielines, 10–14 business day standard production, Always Free DDP Shipping, and our 30-Day Free Reprint & Return Guarantee.

Key Features

  • Radiused anti-snag corners prevent polyethylene film tears inside high-speed heat-shrink tunnels
  • 32 ECT to 48 ECT B, C & EB-flute grades support heavy 24-can cases and glass jar multipacks
  • Moisture-resistant wet-strength kraft and aqueous coatings survive cold-chain condensation
  • Available in hand-erect Roll-End Lock-Corner or automated hot-melt machine-erect blanks
  • Full-color perimeter wall printing turns palletized cases into instant club-store shelf displays
