Frequently Asked Questions
What are Zeropac takeaway containers made of?+

They are made from renewable kraft paper and corrugated board with water-based aqueous or PLA linings instead of conventional plastic. This keeps the containers sturdy and grease-resistant while remaining compostable at end of life.

Are the containers suitable for hot food?+

Yes. The lined paper containers, boxes and bowls are designed for hot meals and hold their structure with curries, fried food and saucy dishes. For very oily food, choose the PLA-lined containers for the best grease resistance.

Are the takeaway containers leak-proof?+

The PLA-lined paper containers and kraft bowls resist leaks from sauces and moisture for normal takeaway and delivery use. Pair them with the matching PLA or PET lids for a secure seal during transport.

Are these containers compostable?+

Yes. The paper and board containers are home and industrial compostable where accepted, and the plant-based linings break down with them. Check your local composting facility for acceptance.

Which pizza box size do I need?+

Pizza boxes run from 7 inch (180 x 180mm) up to 15 inch (383 x 383mm). Match the box to your pizza diameter - a 13 inch box suits a large pizza, while 7 to 9 inch suits personal and regular sizes.

Can the containers go in the microwave?+

The paper containers handle short reheating, but always test with your specific food and avoid prolonged high heat. Remove PET lids before microwaving.

How are the containers recycled or disposed of?+

Clean paper containers can be recycled through paper streams, and the compostable lined items break down in composting where accepted. Food-soiled packaging is best composted rather than recycled.
