Choosing packaging by food type: a HoReCa guide

Hot, cold, greasy or liquid food — the right material for restaurants and catering.
Restaurants, cafés and caterers pack many types of food every day. The right packaging protects food, brand and margins.
By temperature
• Hot food — aluminium, PP or paper containers with lids.
• Cold food and salads — PET/rPET or paper with clear lids.
• Hot drinks — double-wall paper cups; cold drinks — PET cups.
By food type
Greasy food needs grease-resistant materials; acidic food and sauces are best in PP or aluminium; liquids need tight lids.
Cost vs experience
The cheapest option isn't always the best value — leaks mean unhappy customers. Combine basic containers with better packaging for best-sellers.
Sustainability
Paper, board and aluminium recycle easily. The full HoReCa range is in the Пакувај.МК online shop.
