Shallow tray for portioned hot service

The No.6A is a shallow rectangular format measuring 105 x 197 x 49 mm, sized for individual portions of lasagne, sticky-toffee pudding, sheet-pastry slices, or as a quarter-pan insert in a hot-hold counter. The 49 mm depth keeps sauces level and reheats evenly, distinct from the deeper round standard No.6 foil container used for curry and rice cups. The 500-pack suits caterers, dark kitchens and event-pack operations running steady volume across a service day. For higher-rotation kitchens ordering by the pallet, the Purewrap No.6a 1000-pack container is the bulk-case sibling — different supplier and slightly different footprint (Purewrap 182 x 93 x 47 mm at 650 ml), same trade role.

Frequently asked questions

How is the No.6A different from the standard No.6 foil container?

The No.6A is the shallow rectangular tray format (105 x 197 x 49 mm, 600 ml), sized for lasagne portions, pastry slices and quarter-pan hot-hold inserts. The standard No.6 is a deeper round container used for curry-with-rice cups and Chinese takeaway mains — different footprint, different depth, different service.

Are matching lids available?

Yes. Two options both fit the No.6A rim: the No.6a foil-lined lid (Purewrap, oven-safe by laminate for oven-to-table service) or the plain No.6 paperboard lid (MyP, non-oven-safe, remove before oven use). Both seat on the same 105 x 197 mm rim.

Can the trays be used in a conventional oven?

Yes — the food-grade aluminium is suitable for oven use and reheating. Do not microwave — aluminium is not microwave-safe.
