Disposable food containers: The practical solution for your business

Disposable food containers

Disposable food containers are designed to transport meals safely, conveniently and with an attractive presentation.

They are the ideal choice for restaurants, catering services, food trucks, supermarkets and delivery, as they help maintain hygiene, simplify operations and protect food during storage or home delivery. These disposable containers are perfect for both hot and cold dishes, from soups and stews to salads, sushi or desserts.

Some models are specifically designed to be reheated in the oven or microwave, allowing consumers to heat and eat the food without transferring it to another container.

Types of disposable food containers

At Monouso, you’ll find a wide variety of disposable food containers suited to any type of dish:

  • Cardboard disposable containers: sturdy and with a natural look, ideal for hot food in services committed to a rustic or eco-friendly image.
  • Sugarcane (bagasse) disposable containers: compostable, sustainable and elegant for both cold and hot dishes, perfect for more sophisticated preparations.
  • Recyclable plastic containers made from PP and PET: specially designed for packing cold or chilled foods with high moisture content.
  • Aluminium disposable containers: ideal for food exposed to high temperatures and excellent at retaining heat.
  • PLA corn starch disposable containers: transparent and high-gloss, ideal for presenting salads and other cold preparations.
  • FOAM and XPP disposable containers: insulating materials designed to maintain temperature for longer periods.

Beyond the material, the type of container can also be defined by its format, including size or distinctive features such as attached or separate lids. There are also containers with internal compartments, leak-proof closures or special designs for burgers, pasta, rice or desserts.

Features of disposable food containers

  • Easy to stack, store and transport – they are lightweight and take up little space.
  • Various sizes and formats, from small containers for sauces and desserts to large containers for pies and pastries.
  • Secure closure to prevent spills or leaks during transport.

Additionally, depending on the model, they are resistant to heat, humidity or cold, maintaining their shape until the moment of consumption. Some are suitable for microwave, oven or freezer use, depending on the material.

Advantages of disposable takeaway food containers

  • Guaranteed hygiene: single-use design prevents cross-contamination.
  • Convenience: ready to use with no cleaning required.
  • Attractive presentation: enhances the customer’s perception.
  • Versatility: suitable for all types of food.
  • Sustainability: biodegradable and recyclable materials available.

At Monouso, you can choose from hundreds of options to meet your needs, whether it’s for a one-off event or wholesale quantities for growing businesses.

How to choose the right disposable food containers

When selecting your disposable takeaway food containers, consider the following:

  • Type of food: choose different materials for hot, cold, dry, or liquid food.
  • Transport: whether the customer collects the food or it is delivered, both safety and presentation are important.
  • Sustainability: if you prefer biodegradable or compostable options, choose materials that align with your brand’s environmental commitment.
  • Brand image: a well-designed, functional container communicates professionalism.
  • Size and shape: select sizes and shapes that suit your portion formats or types of dishes.

At Monouso, all containers are organised by material, use and type of food, so you can quickly and easily find exactly what you need.

If you want to provide a complete experience for your customers and take care of every detail of your service, disposable food containers are an essential element.
