The 1lb is the side portion format. Not the snack — that’s the 1/2lb. Not the main — that’s the 2lb. The 1lb is the tray for chips, sides, lunch portions and single-serve hot dishes where the 1/2lb is too small and the 2lb is more tray than the portion requires. At 4.6c per tray it sits precisely in the middle of the 1000-per-case group — 0.7c more than the 1/2lb, 0.8c less than the 2lb. Corrugated kraft paperboard, water-based grease-resistant coating, no plastic lining, compostable. 1000 per case.

Technical Specifications

The Side Portion Decision

A 1/2lb tray that’s overloaded with chips looks wrong and performs wrong — food piled above the rim, no clean way to cover it, portion shifting when the customer picks it up. A 2lb tray with a side portion of chips looks wrong in the other direction — too much tray for the food, portion rattling around, presentation that undersells what’s in it. The 1lb gives a side portion of chips, a hot lunch dish, or a single-serve hot food portion the space to sit properly — food fills the tray without overflowing, the tray handles the weight without buckling, and the portion looks like it was packed deliberately.

Dublin and Cork chippers and fish and chip shops use the 1lb as their standard side tray — the format for chips, onion rings and battered sides served alongside a 2lb main. Galway and Limerick delis, cafés and food counters use it for hot lunch portions and single-serve hot dishes for counter service and grab-and-go. Takeaways and fast food operations in Belfast and Derry use it for side orders and kids’ meals where the portion is more than a snack but less than a main. Food trucks and street food vendors across Sligo, Donegal and Cavan use it for medium hot food portions at markets and events where a compostable format is required.

At 4.6c per tray — 0.7c more than the 1/2lb — the 1lb is the right format for any side portion that consistently overloads the smaller size. The cost of the right tray is less than the cost of the wrong one.
