Product Detail
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 |
Application Scenarios
| Scenario | Description | Recommended Size |
|---|---|---|
| Condiment and dipping sauce service | Fast food restaurants, burger chains, and fried food operators providing individual boats of ketchup, ranch, BBQ sauce, garlic aioli, and specialty dipping sauces alongside main orders | #4 (individual dip), #3 (generous sauce portion) |
| Food tasting and sampling events | Grocery stores, food exhibitions, trade shows, and product launch events distributing bite-size tasting samples of new food products, recipe demonstrations, and promotional food items to event visitors | #4 (single-bite sample) |
| Children’s menu and kids’ meal portions | Family restaurants, casual dining chains, and theme park food courts serving age-appropriate smaller portions for children’s menus in dedicated child-friendly tray sizes | #3 (children’s snack portion), #4 (children’s side) |
| Cocktail party and reception appetizers | Catering companies and event venues serving individual canapé, finger food, and appetizer portions at cocktail receptions, gallery openings, product launches, and networking events | #4 (single canapé/appetizer), #3 (small plate) |
| Side dish and add-on portions | Restaurants offering paid add-on sides — coleslaw, pickles, jalapeños, corn salad, baked beans — in dedicated small boats that justify individual pricing and prevent over-portioning | #3 (standard side portion), #4 (small add-on) |

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.
