1. Pain Points of Summer Lunch Box Use: "Packaging Crisis" Caused by Thermal Expansion and Contraction
In the summer, when high and low temperatures are frequently used, the disadvantages of traditional lunch boxes are becoming more and more obvious.
High-Temperature Food Can Easily Cause Ordinary Lunch Boxes to Deform and Burst
When some takeaway merchants use traditional PP or PS clamshell takeout containers to pack hot soup or fried foods, they often encounter situations where the lunch boxes soften or crack because the lunch boxes cannot withstand too high temperatures. Especially for PS materials, the stability at high temperatures is very poor, and the temperature resistance of PP may still be unstable when it exceeds 100°C.
Easy to Crack in Cold Storage, Repeated Temperature Difference Causes Material Fatigue
When delivering cold drinks and cold meals, traditional lunch boxes are prone to cracking and poor sealing if they use materials with poor low-temperature resistance. This is very unfavorable for food safety lunch boxes that require secondary sealing. Especially when cold drinks and hot food are delivered at the same time, food leakage is prone to occur.
High Temperature + Cold Storage Scenarios Have Become a Daily Routine in Catering
Traditional clamshell take-out containers can no longer meet daily needs in summer, so more and more brands are looking for materials that can resist both heat and cold.
3. How Does the MFPP Lunch Box Improve the User Experience and Food Safety?
The safety of catering packaging is not only the safety of the food itself, but also the safety of the packaging needs special attention.
Strong Structure: Not Easy to Break During Transportation
MFPP material has excellent pressure resistance, so clamshell take-out containers are not easy to collapse and deform during transportation. Many customers reported that they rarely encountered hot or soft collapse during use. Even large-capacity best take-out containers can withstand pressure stably when stacked in multiple layers for delivery, which is a very good choice.
High Sealing Design, Anti-Oil Leakage, And Anti-Soup Spillage
Sealing is an important indicator of food packaging. MFPP lunch boxes are usually equipped with a snap-on design, which can effectively reduce soup leakage. These designs can reduce losses during transportation and reduce customer complaints, so they are widely used in high-end food safety lunch boxes.
Food Contact Safe Material, No BPA, No Odor
MFPP generally meets food safety standards such as FDA and LFGB, does not contain BPA, has no harmful additives, and has no odor residue when heated at high temperatures. By ensuring the food safety of the best take-out containers, brands will be more competitive if they can adopt lunch boxes made of MFPP, and it is also an opportunity to enhance their brand image.

2. What Is MFPP Material? A New Material with Both Heat Resistance and Structural Strength
On the way to finding alternative solutions, MFPP was discovered, and its unique performance is particularly eye-catching in the hot summer.
Analysis of the Material Structure Of MFPP
MFPP is a traditional PP with a certain proportion of mineral fillers, such as talcum powder, calcium carbonate, etc., which can enhance the rigidity and heat resistance of the material. MFPP has a stronger impact resistance, deformation resistance, and stability than ordinary PP. Therefore, MFPP has become an ideal choice for making the best take-out containers.
High Temperature Resistance: Can Be Microwaved to 121°c Without Bursting
One of the more obvious advantages of MFPP is its good stability. Experiments show that clamshell take-out containers made of MFPP can still maintain stability and not burst when microwaved at 121°C for 10 minutes. These experiments show that it is very suitable for packaging hot soup meals and fried meals.
Anti-Freezing: It Will Not Become Brittle or Deformed at Minus 20°c
In addition to high temperature resistance, MFPP also has excellent low temperature resistance. Many manufacturers have tested that food safety lunch boxes made of MFPP can be stored for a long time in a -20°C environment without becoming brittle or cracking. It is very suitable for packaging cold drinks, cold meals, desserts, and other categories.
