Large clear hinged containers for salads, deli meals and chilled display takeaway
In stock. Pack and present chilled food with confidence using the Somoplast 969 rectangular container, made from recycled PET (rPET). The flat, snap-fit hinged lid closes securely to help reduce leaks. The clear walls keep your food fully visible for retail displays, takeaway counters, and delivery orders.
This container sits within our takeaway hot and cold food packaging range and works especially well for cold desserts and bakery items alongside our bakery packaging.
