OEM small kraft snack trays #3 and #4 — PE-lined, grease-proof, compact. Perfect for samples, sides & condiments. FDA & EU certified. Order samples!
Overview
Our #3 (11.5g) and #4 (8.5g) compact kraft boat trays fill a precision role that larger trays cannot — delivering perfectly proportioned, cost-efficient packaging for the small-format servings that drive incremental revenue across food service operations: side portions, condiment boats, tasting samples, snack add-ons, party appetizers, and children’s menu items. Produced in our ISO 9001:2015-certified Shandong facility using the same 250g imported kraft paper and 18g PE interior coating as our full-size line, these compact trays deliver identical grease-proof and waterproof performance in a smaller footprint at a lower per-unit material cost — enabling operators to offer add-on items, sample portions, and side servings profitably without absorbing the packaging cost of oversized trays. Our production team developed these sizes in direct response to procurement feedback from fast food chains, tasting event organizers, and children’s menu specialists who needed genuinely small, properly coated trays rather than improvised solutions using the smallest available standard tray.

Key Features & Benefits
Feature
Benefit for B2B Buyers
Right-sized format eliminates packaging waste on small servings
Prevents the profit-eroding practice of using oversized trays for small portions — right-sizing to #3 and #4 reduces per-unit packaging cost by 40–60% compared to serving condiments and samples in #1 or #2 trays
Full 18g PE grease-proof coating on compact trays
Delivers identical grease and moisture barrier performance as the large trays — not a reduced-spec economy version — ensuring dipping sauces, oily condiments, and small fried snacks remain fully contained
250g kraft rigidity maintained at small scale
Compact trays retain the same structural rigidity and pick-up stability as larger sizes, preventing the flimsy, bendable feel that low-quality small trays create when customers pick up loaded condiment or sample portions
High-volume per-carton density
Compact #3 and #4 trays pack in significantly higher unit counts per shipping carton, reducing per-unit freight cost and maximizing container load efficiency for international bulk shipments
Versatile cross-menu deployment
Serves multiple revenue-driving roles from a single SKU — condiment boats, tasting samples, children’s portions, party appetizers, add-on sides — simplifying inventory management while enabling menu flexibility
Enhances professional presentation of small items
Elevates condiments, samples, and small servings from afterthought into professionally presented menu components, supporting premium pricing and improved customer perception of food quality and care

Fude Packaging applies the same 15+ years of manufacturing expertise and ISO 9001:2015-certified quality standards to our compact #3 and #4 boat trays as we do to our full-size line — an important distinction from manufacturers that treat small trays as afterthought products with reduced coating weight, thinner paper, or inconsistent quality control. Our production facility maintains dedicated die-cutting and PE-coating lines calibrated for the precision tolerances that compact tray formats require, ensuring that every #3 and #4 tray receives the full 18g PE grease-proof coating coverage and clean die-cut edge finish that procurement managers expect. All compact trays carry identical SGS-verified food-contact certification — EU EC 1935/2004, US FDA 21 CFR, Japan Food Sanitation Act, and Korea MFDS — as our larger sizes, enabling food service operators and event companies to source their complete tray range from one qualified supplier with one set of compliance documentation. With 500+ million-piece annual capacity, our minimum order quantities for compact trays remain accessible for both large QSR chain programs and smaller specialty orders, with 24/7 multilingual account support ensuring responsive communication for buyers across all time zones.
