Kraft Food Boxes are custom-printed natural kraft cartons for cafes, food trucks, and meal-prep brands that want recyclable takeout packaging with an honest, earthy feel. Made from kraft paperboard and printed to your brand, they handle everything from pastries to packed lunches.
Recyclable kraft signals a low-waste kitchen to customers, and printed branding turns a simple takeout box into repeat recognition. A quick-fold tuck-end keeps the line moving at peak hours. Put them to work for bakery items, salad and grain bowls boxed for pickup, deli portions, or a market vendor's prepared foods.
