Disposable egg trays are usually made up of paper pulp which is used to store eggs from poultry farms and are disposed of after use. Being made up of paper pulp, they are environmental-friendly which sustainable. Beyond being sustainable, they also have enhanced durability with the smooth finish, owing to the thick multi-layers of paper pulp which is used as the packaging material for safeguarding & protecting eggs.
Disposable egg trays are not only useful in storing eggs but also preferred by the manufacturers during the transportation of the eggs, due to its significant physical and barrier properties. The disposable egg trays are lightweight and easy to handle due to the cavities that are created by the disposable egg tray forming machine. They have excellent external shock resistance for the protection of the eggs during transportation.
Nowadays, the majority of disposable egg tray manufacturing companies are using a large amount of recycled paper as compared to cardboard and other materials which were used traditionally.
Using recycled paper in egg trays not only adds benefit to the environment but also for the consumers, as it is less expensive than virgin paper egg trays. The reusability of recycled paper enhances its extensive use in the manufacturing of disposable egg trays instead of wasting and polluting the environment.

Disposable egg trays are mostly made up of moulded fiber, cardboard, and other paper-related materials. Moulded fiber provides a strong integrated framework to the egg trays along with the suitable stiffness and rigidity, which makes the disposable egg tray shock-resistant during the transportation of the eggs and thereby is preferred by many of the farmers and poultry businesses.
Compared to the plastic trays, the moulded fiber provides good air permeability and hygroscopic ability, which plays a vital role during the storage of eggs.
The disposable egg trays made up of moulded fiber have a high price compared to plastic trays because they are more eco-friendly. Also, the moulded fiber disposable egg trays are susceptible to the growth of fungus in the humid environment which can result in the damage of eggs and could also lead to the making of a foul odour.
