Product Information
Full details
The Notpla Deep Trays are designed for eco-conscious food service operators and event organizers who need a reliable, sustainable packaging solution for diverse menu offerings. These trays excel by utilizing an innovative, 100% natural seaweed lining that provides superior leak resistance for hot, cold, wet, or dry meals, effectively eliminating the need for synthetic plastic or PFAS-coated alternatives. While these trays offer excellent durability for standard transport, users should be aware that the natural composition means they are designed for immediate food service rather than long-term storage of highly acidic or extremely oily dishes.

FAQs
Are these trays plastic-free?
Yes, they are 100% plastic-free and utilize a natural seaweed-based lining instead of synthetic coatings.
Can these be put in the microwave?
While the material is heat-resistant, we recommend testing with your specific food items to ensure the structural integrity remains sufficient for your needs.
How long do they take to compost?
The seaweed lining breaks down rapidly, typically within 4-6 weeks in a home composting environment, similar to fruit peels.
Do these contain PFAS?
No, Notpla trays are free from PFAS and other "forever chemicals" often found in traditional grease-resistant packaging.
Are they suitable for greasy foods?
Yes, the seaweed lining is specifically engineered to be grease and leak-resistant, making them ideal for fried or oily takeaway items.
Troubleshooting
Tray feels soft after prolonged contact with liquid
These trays are designed for immediate consumption. For meals with very high liquid content, minimize the time between plating and customer service.
Lid fitting issues
Ensure you are using lids specifically compatible with the 10"x6" dimension to ensure a secure seal and optimal thermal retention.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setting up the Notpla Deep Trays is straightforward as they arrive pre-formed for immediate use. No assembly is required. To maintain quality, store the trays in a cool, dry place, keeping them away from direct humidity to ensure the natural seaweed coating remains intact until the moment of service.
When disposing of the product, encourage customers to place these in a home compost bin or food waste collection where applicable. Because the lining is derived from seaweed, it does not require industrial facilities to break down, though local composting regulations should always be verified. Avoid stacking excessively heavy items on top of the trays during transport to maintain their shape.
