Foodtek Moisture Retention Tray 11x5 (540)

The Foodtek 5×11 inch Moisture Retention Tray is designed for long-cut portions that require extra space and clean presentation. The extended length makes it ideal for lamb rib pieces, pork strips, long chicken cuts or slimmer beef portions that don’t sit well on shorter trays.

Inside each tray is a honeycomb-style absorbent base that helps pull moisture down into small pockets beneath the cut. This reduces surface liquid and keeps packs looking clearer when wrapped and placed into chilled displays.

Foodtek’s rolled-edge design provides a smooth rim that helps prevent wrapping film from catching or splitting, which is especially helpful when packing longer cuts that need a firm, even wrap. Lightweight, clear in colour and easy to stack, these trays support tidy displays and are suited to both retail cabinets and chilled storage rooms.
