Choose Clamshell Boxes That Make Food Packaging Easier

A good takeaway box should keep the food together, give customers easy access, and still leave enough space for your branding. Our clamshell food boxes are built with practical reasons that make them an ideal choice for restaurants, food trucks, and takeaway settings. The hinged lid and attached base from one single package ease the unboxing experience. Close the top over the food, secure the built-in tab or locking flaps, and the package is ready for takeaway, delivery, or display. From burgers and sandwiches to pastries, desserts, snacks, and prepared meals, the size and dimensions can all be adjusted around what you want to sell.

Kraft & Cardboard Clamshell Boxes for Different Foods

Not every food can be packaged in the same way. A shallow construction can work for cookies, brownies, sandwiches, and other confectionery products. A deeper base can accommodate burgers, loaded meals, and other fried items with toppings that need additional space. For example, cake boxes are built with the same mechanism and attention to detail. The hinged design works similarly and offers the same level of protection. When packaging solutions are built with such precision, they don’t just preserve your food but also present your brand in a good way. Our kraft and cardboard clamshell boxes are made for the real world. Whether your food is on its way to the customer or is displayed on the store shelf, they will perform their best to create a pleasant experience.

Hot Food Needs a Way to Breathe

A closed box does not automatically mean a better box. Hot food releases steam. If that steam has nowhere to go, condensation can build inside the package and affect foods that are meant to stay crisp. This is why ventilation can be an important part of certain clamshell packaging designs. Vent placement, size, and number can be adjusted according to the food and how it is packed. Fried foods, for example, may require a different approach from dry bakery products. The goal is to balance containment with the amount of airflow the food needs.

Design Your Clamshell Containers Workable For Food

The lid is often the first part of the package your customer sees, making it one of the most useful areas for branding. Instead of choosing clamshell boxes with logo, you can play around with the creativity. You can add your brand name, product ingredients, QR codes to scan, promotional messages, short brand statements, heating or serving information, and whatnot. Choose from advanced printing techniques like
  • Digital printing
  • Rotogravure printing
  • Flexography printing
  • Lithographic printing
Each of them gives off crisp results. Finish your packaging with labels and stickers, custom wax papers, embossing, debossing, spot UV, and foil stamping. Every detail will enhance your clamshell packages.

Customize Your Food Clamshell Boxes Beyond Printing

A custom box does not have to mean a stock box with a logo added. You can customize every inch of your clamshell packages. We offer you customization options such as
  • Dimensions
  • opening and closing design
  • board type and thickness
  • interior and exterior printing
  • Inserts
  • Ventilation
  • Die-cut details
  • Custom shapes
  • Window cutouts

Cardboard or Plastic Clamshell Boxes?

We can simply answer this question with sustainability in mind. Cardboard clamshell boxes can be disposed of and recycled easily, while plastic is not eco-friendly at all. Cardboard or even kraft clamshell boxes have a printable surface that also gives food businesses more room for branding. While plastic material is not suitable for direct contact with the food. If your goals are aligned with sustainability, then a paper-based format proves ideal to work with.
