Stand Out with Customised Kraft Takeaway Boxes
Personalised kraft takeaway boxes provide a welcome to the food: natural, strong, and shape-retaining throughout the delivery. We make these boxes with real kraft paper to keep your food hot, clean and beautiful all the way from the kitchen to your doorstep.
Each batch is customised to your menu. Choose your size and customise your logo and of course, we do the rest, fast.
- Sturdy build: The paper holds its shape under weight so it doesn't crush in a delivery bag.
- Grease resistance: Most come with a coating that stops oily food soaking through
- Breathable material: Unlike sealed plastic, kraft paper lets a little steam escape, so fried or crisp food doesn't go soggy.
- Fold-lock design: They snap together without tape or glue
- Easy to dispose of responsibly after use: Recyclable and biodegradable.
They can be used for a variety of different foods, such as burgers, wraps, rice bowls, sides, bakery goods and much more, and businesses frequently get them designed with their trademark so that the branding accompanies each and every order.
The Box Behind The Brown Paper
Bespoke kraft takeaway packaging boxes are made from kraft paper, which is a strong paper manufactured by pressing wood pulp fibres. They are widely used in the UK for packing meals for food businesses for delivery and collection. The paper will not buckle or rip from the weight of the paper and is oil and grease-resistant, so your food will look as crisp as the moment it came out of the oven.
Steam is trapped in plastic tubs and makes crisp food soggy. Kraft paper breathes; textures remain intact. Customers feel it, and they will remember that the brand is the one that got it. We use FSC-certified packaging materials.
What Makes These Boxes Tick
Our kraft takeaway food boxes come loaded with practical perks:
- Grease-resistant lining: Stops oily meals soaking through.
- Fold-lock construction: No tape, no glue, no wasted time.
- Full custom print: Colour, single tone, or foil finish.
- Food-grade paper stock: Safe for direct contact with hot or cold dishes.
- Stackable build: Saves room in the kitchen and delivery bags alike.
Shapes for Every Dish on Your Menu
The Custom Boxes UK stocks kraft packaging in shapes built around real menus, not guesswork:
- Rectangle boxes: Suited to burgers, wraps, and mains.
- Square boxes: Ideal for salads, rice bowls, and sides.
- Fold-out boxes: Open flat for easy plating at the table.
- Compartment boxes: Keep sauces separate from the main dish.
- Snack-size boxes: Built for chips, nuggets, and street food.
Every box ships flat and folds together within seconds. Your team will notice the time saved during a busy rush.
The Paper That Does The Heavy Lifting
We source premium kraft stock with sustainability at the front of mind. Choose from:
- Standard kraft: Natural brown finish with visible fibre texture.
- White-lined kraft: Kraft outside, bright white print surface inside.
- Double-wall kraft: Extra thickness for hot, heavy, or saucy meals.
Every material option meets food safety standards, with no chemical leaching into your dishes. Health inspectors approve. Customers never think twice.

Why Kitchens Are Making the Switch
Kraft takeaway boxes solve real headaches for food businesses:
- Sharper presentation: Natural texture reads premium, not plastic

- Lighter shipping loads: Kraft weighs less than rigid tubs.
- Free brand exposure: Your logo travels with every order
- Effortless disposal: Customers recycle without a second thought
Restaurants that switch report fewer complaints about squashed or damp food. Fewer complaints mean fewer refunds and better reviews.
