How Long is the Typical Lifespan of a Bread Crate?

Under normal operations, a bread crate lasts between 5 and 8 years. At Rotaform, we're committed to creating durable products optimised for longevity. Our high-quality bread crates and pastry trays can last up to 25 years, reducing the need for frequent replacement. This incredible durability helps your business increase long-term returns on your assets while reducing your carbon footprint. 

What Are the Benefits of Using Plastic Pastry Trays and Crates? 

Our plastic bread crates and pastry trays are reusable, making them a more sustainable choice than single-use materials like cardboard or paperboard. Ideal for a comprehensive system, our crates can be combined with plastic pallets to efficiently move, store, ship, and display various bakery items from production to retail. 

They feature an open front and back for easy product access and are fully recyclable at the end of their service life. These trays and crates can also be stacked and nested, enhancing storage efficiency and transportation, saving space, and simplifying handling. 

Are Rotaform's Crates and Trays Food Safe? 

Yes, Rotaform Plastics' bread crates and pastry trays are durable, food-safe, and made for direct contact with food products. Since they're plastic, our crates are easy to clean and sanitise, reducing the risk of cross-contamination and ensuring a high level of food safety.
