Food Tray Liners: Clean, Practical, and Professional
Food tray liners are a simple yet essential addition to any food service setting, providing a clean and hygienic surface for serving meals. They act as a protective barrier, keeping trays free from spills, grease, and stains, which makes cleaning easier and helps maintain a professional appearance. Whether used in restaurants, cafés, takeaways, or catering events, tray liners offer both practicality and convenience for staff and customers alike.
Beyond their functional benefits, food tray liners are also a powerful branding tool. Custom-printed liners can feature a company’s logo, colors, or promotional messages, turning every meal served into a marketing opportunity. This not only enhances brand recognition but also creates a more memorable dining experience for customers. By combining design with functionality, businesses can elevate their presentation and stand out in a competitive food service market.
Sustainability is also a key factor in today’s packaging industry, and eco-friendly food tray liners are becoming increasingly popular. Options made from recyclable or biodegradable paper materials allow businesses to maintain high hygiene standards while reducing their environmental footprint. By choosing sustainable tray liners, companies can meet customer expectations for greener solutions while continuing to deliver practical, durable, and stylish food presentation.

We’ve been using these Polythene Side Gusseted Food Safe Bread Bags for a while now, and they’re exactly what we needed. The quality is excellent — nice and clear so our bread looks great on display, and the gusset gives plenty of room for larger loaves without squashing them.
They seal easily, keep the bread fresh, and are strong enough that we never worry about tearing when we’re packing in a hurry. Being food safe gives us total peace of mind for our customers.
Honestly, they’ve made our packaging so much easier. Great product, great value — we’ll definitely keep ordering.

We’ve been using these Polythene Blue Tinted Tray Liners in our food production area, and they’ve proven to be a fantastic choice. The blue tint makes them easily identifiable — ideal for food safety protocols — while the polythene material offers excellent strength and durability.
They fit perfectly into our trays, helping to maintain hygiene and reduce the need for deep cleaning between batches. The liners seem to be leak resistant and reliable, even when handling moist or greasy products.
