What the product is certified for, and what happens to it after use.
Food contact
Inner liner is virgin food-grade fibre, manufactured to EU 1935/2004. Migration certificates are issued per batch.
Grease resistance
The optional dispersion barrier holds oil and moisture without PE lamination, so the box stays in the paper recycling stream.
Chain of custody
FSC Mix liners available on request, with chain-of-custody documentation on every order.

Applications
Who this pizza box is for
Three buyers, three different reasons the same product works.
-
Pizza chains
A box that folds flat, erects in seconds and holds shape when stacked five high on a delivery scooter.
-
Pide and lahmacun houses
Long, narrow formats that no stock pizza box fits, cut to the length of your oven's pide.
-
Frozen pizza retail
Litho-laminated faces for shelf appeal, on a board that survives the freezer cabinet without softening.

09Procurement FAQ
Questions buyers ask
-
How long does pizza box delivery to Germany take?
Production takes 14 to 21 days from proof approval, plus 4 to 7 days road freight from İstanbul — around four weeks door to door.
-
Can you print the inside of the lid?
Yes. A one-colour inside print is available from 10,000 units and adds two days to the lead time.
-
How does the pizza box keep pizza warm?
The corrugated flutes trap an insulating layer of air, and the four corner vents release steam so the base stays crisp rather than soggy.
-
What is the minimum order for a printed pizza box?
5,000 boxes in a standard size, flexo-printed in up to two colours. Custom sizes, including long pide boxes, start at 10,000 units.
