Custom Open-Ended Tray Boxes by Industry

Tray Boxes are open-ended boxes suited to industry needs. This design allows them to be beneficial for a variety of products.

Bakery Tray Boxes

Bakery tray boxes are perfect for holding baked goods such as cupcakes, pastries, and cookies. Typically made from firm cardboard or paper, they secure treats while keeping them fresh. Bakery staff can easily refill these trays, making them ideal for busy periods.

Several of Healey Packaging’s bakery trays have transparent windows, allowing customers to peer inside to see the delights, enhancing the display factor. Branded bakery tray boxes give a professional look that makes your bakery stand out.

Cosmetic Tray Boxes

Cosmetic tray boxes are a stylish way to showcase beauty products. Items like lipstick, perfume, and skincare products belong in these trays. Cosmetic packaging is often designed with attractive colours to match brand themes, making them stand out in retail displays.

The open format allows customers to browse products without much handling. Custom Tray Boxes for cosmetics are available at Healey Packaging with options for branding and special finishes, making them ideal for beauty brands.

Gift Tray Boxes

Commonly used for candles, soaps, or small gifts, gift tray boxes are constructed from high-quality materials like cardboard, making them durable and presentable. Healey Packaging can customise these boxes with patterns, ribbon handles, or printed messages.

The open-ended style lets recipients catch a glimpse of the gifts inside, building anticipation. Gift tray boxes are ideal for holiday items and can be used seasonally in shops.

Retail Display Tray Boxes

Retail Display Tray Boxes are an effective way to showcase products like gadgets, toys, and accessories. These boxes allow customers easy access to items in stores. Retailers often personalise them with logos for a unique presentation.

The open design allows natural lighting to display products and helps store employees quickly restock. These retail tray boxes are perfect for showcasing new arrivals or promotional items.

Food Tray Boxes

Food tray boxes work well for snacks, fresh produce, and even takeout orders. Typically made of food-safe materials like biodegradable cardboard or paper, these trays are ideal for self-serve setups.

Many food trays include removable lids, allowing open and closed display options. Food tray boxes are often seen at events, farmers markets, or cafés and are practical for food trucks where customers can grab and go.

Pharmaceutical Tray Boxes

Pharmaceutical tray boxes are incorporated for storing vitamins, supplements, and medicines. They offer both protection and convenience. Some boxes are divided to hold multiple items, making them useful in pharmacies or medical settings. The open-ended design enables staff to quickly stock shelves and access products as needed.

Common Uses of Custom Open-Ended Tray Boxes

Custom Open-Ended Tray Boxes are not limited to industry use; they are versatile and can be used in various settings for practical purposes.

Bakery Display and Takeaway

In bakeries, open-ended tray boxes are essential for both display and takeaway. Items like muffins or cookies can be displayed freshly each day for customers. Healey Packaging manufactures food-safe, easy-to-use bakery tray boxes, available with or without lids. Staff can pack items quickly, enhancing service speed and the customer experience. Bakery boxes with a window let customers see the treats, making them even more tempting.

Retail and Market Displays

Open-ended tray boxes are commonly used by retailers and markets to display smaller items, such as accessories or seasonal products. They play a major role in self-serve areas, holding fruits, vegetables, or snacks in farmers markets or grocery outlets.

These boxes protect products while allowing convenient access in busy shops. Healey Packaging offers these trays wholesale, making it easy to stock up for large displays.

Special Occasion Gift Wrapping

Open-ended tray boxes are an excellent choice for gift packaging, especially for holidays or special events. These trays can hold favours, keepsakes, or treats for guests at occasions like weddings.

Tray boxes from Healey Packaging help create a cohesive brand look, allowing products to be accessible and appealing, which helps make a positive impression on customers.

Customers find trays easy to carry, making them convenient for enjoying fresh food on the go.
