Introduction

Aluminum food trays are increasingly becoming the packaging material of choice in the food industry. Their lightweight nature, excellent heat conductivity, and recyclability make them a superior option compared to other materials. This article delves into the various benefits of using aluminum food trays and presents specific solutions offered by ABLPACK, a leading aluminum packaging provider.

Benefits of Using Aluminum Food Trays

1. Lightweight and Durable

Aluminum trays are known for their lightweight nature, making transportation more efficient and cost-effective. Despite their low weight, these trays offer significant durability, able to withstand pressures of up to 150 MPa.

2. Excellent Heat Conductivity

With a thermal conductivity value of approximately 235 W/m·K, aluminum trays provide even and efficient heating. This is crucial in food packaging, where consistent heat distribution can enhance the quality and safety of food products.

3. Recyclability and Environmental Impact

Aluminum is 100% recyclable without loss of properties. Recycling aluminum requires only 5% of the energy used to produce primary aluminum, significantly reducing environmental impact. This factor is crucial for companies aiming to improve their sustainability credentials.

4. Barrier Properties

Aluminum trays offer an excellent barrier against moisture, oxygen, and light, thus extending the shelf life of food products. Studies have shown that aluminum can decrease oxygen transmission to less than 0.1 cm³/m²·day.
