What Is Rectangular Aluminum Foil Container?

Rectangular foil container is a rectangular food packaging tray or pan made from aluminum foil. Rectangular foil pans are commonly used for cooking, baking, and storing food. Their rectangular shape allows them to fit easily in the oven, refrigerator, or freezer. They have upright sides and come with a matching foil lid, cardboard lid, or clear plastic lid.

Rectangular Foil Container Features

Thermal Conductivity
Aluminum foil conducts heat well, so these containers are great for baking or reheating food evenly.

Durability
Oblong foil containers are strong and durable, and can hold heavier or denser foods without bending or cracking. They can also withstand high temperatures without bending or leaking.

Convenience
Rectangular aluminum foil pans are usually disposable, which makes cleanup easier. Some are designed to be oven-safe, freezer-safe, or microwave-safe.

Preservation
Rectangular foil containers help preserve food by preventing moisture loss and are often used for dishes that need to be kept warm or stored for later use.

Versatility
Oblong foil pans come in a variety of sizes and depths, making them suitable for baking, roasting, and storing a variety of dishes, including lasagna, casseroles, and desserts. Rectangular aluminum foil containers are available with foil lids, white plate lids, heat-seal lids, and clear lids.

Recycling
Aluminum foil is recyclable, so these foil containers can be recycled where facilities are available.

Rectangular Aluminum Foil Container Production Process

Foil unwinding
Place the container foil in the unwinder, which unwinds it and feeds it directly into the unwinder for unwinding. Container foil is usually made in giant rolls because we are a manufacturer of mass-produced aluminum containers. Then the giant roll of aluminum foil is straightened to avoid misalignment during the stamping process, which requires manual inspection at all times.

Lubricating rolls
The oiler is inside the machine and contains lubricating oil. Avoid damaging the aluminum foil during friction.

Fastening foil rolls
The machine also has a tension device inside to prevent the foil from sagging or loosening during the entire process, preventing the production of defective containers.

Stamping device
The stamping device presses the foil into the shape of the container through a die, and at the same time separates the residual aluminum foil from the newly made container. The stamping device has a single-cavity or multi-cavity mold, which can produce one or more aluminum foil containers in one press. The mold determines the shape and specifications of your container.

Container collection
Collecting the aluminum foil containers is the last step in the production process. This step can be collected manually by humans or automatically stacked by an automated production machine. Fully automatic machines can not only automatically stack, but also count.

Waste Collection Device
The waste collection device can compress the waste foil during the production process. Generally, the waste is compressed into blocks and sent for recycling.

Small Rectangular Foil Container

Small size pans are mini, lightweight and colorful, making them suitable for the baking industry. They are commonly used for cupcakes, brownies, muffins and snacks. The catering industry uses them for meal preparation, which can be stored in the refrigerator or freezer and heated when needed.

How To Use Rectangular Foil Containers

How to choose a rectangular foil container

Food Types

Rectangle foil containers can be used to package both liquid and dry foods. Liquid foods (such as soups, stews) require deep aluminum foil containers, while dry foods (such as pastries, roasts) can choose shallow foil pans.

Cooking Method

If you are baking, choose a deep dish that can withstand high temperatures; if you are stewing, use an aluminum foil pot with a lid; if you are grilling, choose a shallow, wide-mouthed container that is easy to place on the grill; when refrigerating, choose a container with a good seal.

Food Serving Size

Choose based on the amount of food you need. For example, a family meal requires a larger container, while a small container for individual portions is more appropriate. Consider whether the amount of food and the size of the container are sufficient.

Additional Features

Consider whether you need a foil container with a lid for easy storage and transport. If you need to take out, choose a lightweight container with a lid to keep the food fresh.

Price & Quality

If you use it frequently, consider choosing a durable and economical rectangular aluminum foil container. Buy directly from the aluminum foil container factory for the best value, meeting your bulk purchase and custom sizes.

Application Scenario

Make sure your container is oven-safe or microwave-safe. It should fit snugly in the refrigerator or freezer. Choose thicker foil containers for added durability, especially when baking or heating heavy foods.

How To Maintain Rectangular Aluminum Foil Containers

Avoid sharp objects
Do not use corrosive substances and sharp knives to scrape the surface of the foil lunch box, which may cause the aluminum to be incorporated into the food. Cutting food directly in the foil pan may cause scratches or even tear the pan.

Avoid sudden temperature changes
Transferring the foil pan directly from the oven to the refrigerator or vice versa may cause deformation. Let the food reach room temperature before transferring.

Oven use
When using the foil container, it should be placed in the center of the oven and avoid direct contact with the heat source to avoid deformation or breakage. If it needs to be heated for a long time, it is best to cover the top of the foil lunch box with a layer of tin foil to protect the food from excessive burning.

Proper storage
Store the containers in a dry place away from direct sunlight and moisture. You can store them in a cabinet or on a shelf, but make sure they are not exposed to extreme temperatures.
