#13 Kraft Clamshell Hot Dog Box | 200 Boxes/Pack | Compostable Ireland

#13 Kraft Clamshell Hot Dog Box | 200 Boxes/Pack | Compostable Ireland

The #13 is the only specialist elongated format in the range — the compostable hot dog box trusted by Dublin food vans, Cork festival caterers and Galway street food operators for any food that doesn’t fit cleanly in a square clamshell. Hot dogs, sausages in a bun, baguettes, wraps, long sausage rolls — the elongated format that the HP2, HP3 and HP4 can’t cover. Integrated hinged lid, 100% compostable corrugated kraft board. 200 per pack at €38.80. No PE lining, no plastic. EU Directive 2019/904 compliant.

🔹 Burger or loaded fries? → 244mm Fold Out Kraft Burger Box.   🔹 Standard portion? → HP3 1,000ml.

The #13 solves a specific problem: a hot dog in a bun, a baguette or a long wrap doesn’t sit flat in a square box. Put it in an HP2 or HP3 and it either sits at an angle or the lid won’t close cleanly. The elongated #13 is shaped for the food — the lid closes securely without compressing the bun, the E-flute corrugated construction keeps the food warm during outdoor service, and the plain kraft finish takes a logo stamp or sticker for branded presentation. At ~€0.19 per box it’s the same price point as the HP2.

📏 Visual Size Guide: The #13 elongated format fits a standard gourmet hot dog in a brioche bun with toppings, a full-length baguette half, or a 25cm wrap rolled lengthways — with the lid closing flat.

Best For

Ideal fit: Any food that’s longer than it is wide — hot dogs, sausages in a bun, baguettes, wraps, long sausage rolls — where a standard square or rectangular clamshell would leave the food at an angle or require the lid to be forced closed.

• Hot dogs and sausages in a bun — the primary use case; the elongated format is shaped for a hot dog in a bun, the lid closes cleanly without compressing the food, and the E-flute corrugated construction keeps the sausage warm during outdoor service
• Baguettes and sub rolls — a standard baguette or filled sub roll fits the elongated format cleanly; the right box for cafés and delis that serve baguettes for takeaway or delivery
• Wraps served lengthways — a wrap that’s rolled rather than folded fits the elongated format without being compressed; the hinged lid keeps the wrap contained during transit
• Long sausage rolls and pastries — bakery and deli items that are too long for a square box; the #13 is the correct format for a full-length sausage roll
• Festival and outdoor event service — where compostable packaging is required by the event organiser or local authority; EU Directive 2019/904 compliant, plastic-free and polystyrene-free

Key Features

• Elongated clamshell format — the only specialist hot dog box in the range — designed for food that’s longer than it is wide; the shape the HP2, HP3 and HP4 formats can’t cover
• E-Flute corrugated board — superior heat retention — the fluted layers trap air to provide insulation compared to single-wall card; hot dogs, sausages and baguettes stay warm during collection and delivery; the construction that matters most for outdoor and festival service where food travels from the grill to the customer
• 200 per pack — consistent pack count with the HP2, HP3 and #56 formats; practical for food vans and festival caterers running multiple box formats simultaneously
• Integrated hinged clamshell lid — closes securely over the elongated format without compressing the food; no separate lid required
• 100% compostable — no PE lining, no plastic — genuinely compostable in commercial and home composting facilities; EU single-use plastics regulations compliant; plastic-free and polystyrene-free
• Grease-resistant kraft board — handles sauced hot dogs, buttered baguettes and filled wraps without the base softening or losing structural integrity during service
• Plain kraft finish — unprinted natural kraft surface; apply your logo stamp, sticker or label for branded presentation at the point of service
