Fast Food Boxes

Fast food boxes are food grade cartons and clamshells for burgers, fries, chicken, wraps, and combo meals, built to hold hot food, resist grease, and carry a brand at the counter. We make them with no minimum order quantity, so a single location can order 100 and a chain can order hundreds of thousands, at a per box price we will quote against your current supplier.

Fast food packaging lives or dies on heat and grease handling, so the board and coating matter. We build burger clamshells, fry cartons, chicken boxes, and combo meal boxes in food grade paperboard with a grease resistant coating, and we can add ventilation so fried food does not steam and go soggy. Kraft reads natural and white reads clean, and both take full color print for the branding. We size each box to the item so the food sits right and the box closes, and for hot items we spec a coating that holds up without going limp.

For a fast food brand the box is on every table and in every photo, so a printed, well built box does branding work that a plain container cannot. We help you match the coating and vent to whether the food is fried, hot, or saucy. Send your menu items and sizes and we will spec the boxes and a free proof. If you have a competing quote, send it and we will try to beat it.

What fast food boxes have to handle

Fast food packaging takes more abuse than almost any other box. It holds hot, greasy, or saucy food, it gets handled on the move, and it still has to carry the brand and travel well through delivery. The right box is food safe, grease resistant, and quick to assemble at the counter, so your team can pack fast during a rush.

Grease, heat, and food safe stock

The stock is the first call. For fries, burgers, and fried items we use food grade board with a grease resistant liner that holds up without leaking or going limp. Everything that touches food uses food safe inks and coatings, and we tell you plainly what is safe for direct contact and hot food.

Structures for burgers, fries, and combos

Common builds include clamshell burger boxes, scoop and french fry cartons, snack and combo boxes, and auto bottom boxes that pop open fast for quick service. We size each one to the portion so the food sits right and the box is not bigger than it needs to be. Tell us the item and we recommend the structure.

Print, branding, and delivery

Fast food is a branding game, so we print full color inside and out and can add matte, gloss, or a clean kraft look. For delivery, we can spec a tamper evident closure and a sturdier board so the meal arrives sealed and intact. A printed inside panel is prime space for a promo or a QR code.

Ordering, samples, and price

There is no minimum order, so a single location or a growing chain can start small and scale. Design is free, samples are free, and we price match any comparable written quote. Send the item, the portion, and a quantity, and we come back with a dieline, a 3D mockup, and a price the same day.
