What are menu trays?
What are menu trays?
Menu trays are special containers for transporting and storing food. They are made of various materials such as plastic, aluminum or environmentally friendly alternatives such as sugar cane or cardboard.

Which bowls can be put in the microwave?
Which bowls can be put in the microwave?
Not all meal trays are microwave-safe. Plastic trays made of polypropylene (PP) or biodegradable trays made of sugar cane are generally microwave-safe. Aluminum trays or plastic containers made of polystyrene (PS), on the other hand, should not be put in the microwave as they can melt or cause sparks. Always pay close attention to the product properties!
Can an aluminum tray go in the oven?
Can an aluminum tray go in the oven?
Yes, aluminum trays are heat-resistant and can be put in the oven without any problem. They are particularly suitable for heating or gratinating food. However, it is important that they are not placed in the microwave, as aluminum can create sparks and thus become a hazard.
Are aluminum trays harmful?
Are aluminum trays harmful?
Under certain conditions, aluminum can dissolve and migrate into food, especially in very salty or acidic foods. So you shouldn't eat from aluminum bowls every day! In moderation, however, aluminum bowls are generally harmless. If you have concerns, you can switch to coated or alternative materials such as sugar cane or PP bowls.
Which garbage can do aluminum trays go in?
Which garbage can do aluminum trays go in?
Aluminum trays should be disposed of in the yellow bag or yellow bin because they are recyclable. However, they should be as clean as possible before disposal to make recycling easier. Heavily soiled trays with a lot of grease and food residue still sticking to them should be put in the general waste.
