Custom Hot Dog Trays Built for Your Brand
Whether you run a ballpark concession, a food truck, or a growing restaurant chain, the right tray does more than hold food. It reinforces your brand with every serving. Custom hot dog trays from Teal Packaging let you print your logo, colors, and messaging directly on food-grade paperboard so every customer interaction doubles as a marketing moment.
These trays are designed for practicality and presentation. A sturdy, open-top structure keeps food accessible while preventing grease from reaching hands and counters. Available in standard and oversized formats, they accommodate everything from classic franks to loaded Chicago-style dogs piled with toppings.
Full Customization From Shape to Finish
Every tray is printed using full-color CMYK on food-safe paperboard, giving you sharp, vibrant artwork that holds up under warm, greasy conditions. You choose the dimensions, so whether you need a narrow boat for a single dog or a wider format for combo servings with fries, the tray fits your menu.
- Custom sizes tailored to your specific food items
- Full-color printing on exterior surfaces
- Matte or gloss lamination for added durability and a premium feel
- Spot UV coating to highlight logos or design elements
- Foil stamping for metallic accents on limited edition or event trays
There are low minimum order quantities, so you can start with a small batch to test your design before scaling up for a full season or franchise rollout.
Food-Safe Materials With an Eco-Friendly Focus
All trays are manufactured from SBS (solid bleached sulfate) or kraft paperboard that meets FDA food contact standards. These materials provide the rigidity needed to hold hot, heavy items without buckling or leaking grease through to the customer's hands.
Teal Packaging prioritizes sustainable production. The paperboard stock is recyclable and sourced from responsibly managed forests. Soy-based inks and water-based coatings are available for brands that want to minimize their environmental footprint without sacrificing print quality. If your business promotes green practices, your packaging can reflect that commitment.
Where These Trays Make an Impact
Branded food trays work across a wide range of settings and business types:
- Food trucks and street vendors looking for portable, mess-free serving
- Stadium and arena concessions handling high-volume, fast-paced service
- Catering companies serving at outdoor events, festivals, and corporate functions
- Quick-service restaurants upgrading from plain white trays to branded packaging
- Ghost kitchens and delivery brands reinforcing identity in takeout orders
- Seasonal pop-ups at fairs, carnivals, and holiday markets
A printed tray turns every serving into a subtle advertisement. Customers photograph their food constantly for social media, and your branding travels with every post.
