When exporting aluminum foil containers to global markets, proper packaging is just as important as product quality. Strong and standardized export packaging ensures that aluminum trays arrive safely, without deformation or damage during long-distance transportation.

As a professional manufacturer of aluminum foil containers, we design our export packaging solutions based on container size, weight, shipping method, and customer requirements.

1. Outer Carton Specifications

The outer carton plays a critical role in protecting aluminum foil trays during transportation. Since aluminum containers are lightweight yet pressure-sensitive, cartons must provide both structural strength and stacking resistance.

Carton Material

• 5-layer or 7-layer corrugated cartons

• High burst strength and compression resistance

• Moisture-resistant surface treatment (for sea freight)

Carton Size Design

Carton dimensions are carefully calculated based on:

• Product size (such as 750ml trays, 3-compartment containers, large catering trays)

• Quantity per pack

• Weight control for easy handling

We optimize carton size to:

• Reduce empty space inside the carton

• Prevent internal movement

• Improve container loading efficiency

Standard export carton weight is normally controlled to ensure safe manual handling and pallet stacking.

2. Inner Packaging Protection

Before placing products into export cartons, aluminum food containers are packed with protective methods such as:

• Heat-sealed plastic bags

• Shrink wrapping

• Divider sheets (for multi-compartment trays)

This prevents dust contamination and edge deformation during shipping.

For customized orders, we also support:

• Printed inner bags

• Retail-ready shrink packaging

• Barcode labeling

3. Pallet Packing Method

For international shipments, palletization is essential to improve safety and loading efficiency.

Standard Pallet Packing

• Wooden pallets or fumigation-free export pallets

• Stretch film wrapping for full stability

• Corner protectors to prevent carton damage

Pallet Advantages

• Better stacking stability

• Reduced compression damage

• Faster loading and unloading

• Safer sea freight and long-distance transport

For large orders of disposable aluminum trays and aluminum takeaway containers, pallet packing significantly reduces transportation risk.

4. Container Loading Optimization

We carefully plan container loading based on:

• 20GP / 40GP / 40HQ container capacity

• Carton dimensions

• Pallet size compatibility

Our goal is to:

• Maximize loading quantity

• Reduce freight cost per unit

• Maintain product safety

For high-volume items such as aluminum foil food containers and catering trays, optimized loading design helps buyers reduce overall logistics expenses.

5. Custom Export Packaging Solutions

Different markets may require specific packaging standards. We provide customized export packaging services for:

• European markets

• Middle East markets

• Southeast Asia distributors

• Airline catering suppliers

We can adjust carton thickness, pallet standards, labeling, and marking according to customer requirements.

Conclusion

Reliable export packaging ensures that aluminum foil containers maintain their shape, hygiene, and structural integrity throughout the shipping process.

From outer carton specifications to pallet packing methods, we implement strict export packaging standards to guarantee safe delivery worldwide.

If you are sourcing aluminum foil trays, aluminum food containers, or disposable aluminum packaging, we can provide professional export-ready packaging solutions tailored to your market.
