Foil Containers & Lids

Plastic melts in an oven, aluminium doesn't. Our foil containers cover round and rectangular trays across a numbered sizing system (No1, No2, No12 and more), pie plates and Danish trays, most paired with a matching foil or board lid, giving kitchens an ovenable, freezable option for food that needs to be baked, reheated or grilled.

About Our Foil Containers & Lids

Foil containers exist for one job plastic can't do: going straight into an oven or under a grill. Our range runs from small No1 and No2 containers for single portions up to larger 9-inch round containers and rectangular trays, with pie plates and Danish trays covering specific bakery and dessert shapes. Sizing follows a numbered system alongside dimensions, so matching a container to the right lid stays manageable across 40-plus products.

Lids come in two types worth knowing apart: a foil lid crimps directly onto the container for a tighter seal, while a board lid, cardboard with a foil-effect or plain finish, sits on top for a lower-cost, non-sealed option better suited to display or short-term holding rather than transport. Custom printing is available on selected board lid products for businesses wanting branding on the visible top surface. Browse the full range here.

FAQs

What customer ask for!

1. Can foil containers go in the oven?

Yes, aluminium foil containers are ovenable, which is their main advantage over plastic alternatives, food can go from prep straight into the oven or under a grill in the same container.

2. What's the difference between a foil lid and a board lid?

A foil lid, like the No1 Foil Board Lid, typically crimps onto the container for a tighter seal, while a board lid sits on top without sealing, suiting display or short-term use rather than transport or freezing.

3. What does the numbering system (No1, No2, No12) mean?

These are standard container size codes used across the catering trade, with each number corresponding to a specific set of dimensions, check the product title, such as the No2 Foil Container 140x115x40mm, for exact measurements.

4. Are foil containers freezable as well as ovenable?
