Which Format Do You Need?
💡 Not sure where to start? For most Irish takeaways, cafés and food vans, the HP3 1,000ml clamshell is the go-to format — the right size for curry, pasta, noodles and a generous main course portion. Start there and move up or down based on your portion size.

Why Corrugated Kraft?
- Genuinely compostable — no PE lining, no plastic — the entire box goes in the composting stream; suitable for commercial and home composting
- EU Directive 2019/904 compliant — plastic-free and polystyrene-free; the correct format for operations with a sustainability or procurement requirement
- Superior heat retention — the fluted corrugated layer traps air and keeps food warmer than single-ply board; matters for delivery and outdoor festival service
- Grease-resistant — handles chips, curry, burgers and battered food without the base softening during service
- Direct polystyrene replacement — same practical formats, fully compostable; no change to service workflow
Corrugated Kraft vs Bagasse vs Polystyrene
| Format | Corrugated Kraft | Bagasse | Polystyrene |
|---|---|---|---|
| Compostable | ✅ Commercial & home | ✅ Commercial | ❌ No |
| EU 2019/904 | ✅ Compliant | ✅ Compliant | ❌ Banned |
| Heat insulation | ✅ Strong — fluted layer | ⚠️ Moderate | ✅ Strong |
| Grease resistance | ✅ Yes | ✅ Yes | ✅ Yes |
| Vented / fold-out formats | ✅ Yes — burger box | ❌ No | ✅ Yes |
| Best for | Dry hot food, delivery, festivals | Wet dishes, sauced mains | N/A — banned in EU |
For very wet, sauced dishes where liquid pooling is a concern, bagasse may be a better fit. For chips, burgers, battered food and most Irish takeaway formats — corrugated kraft is the practical choice.
