Hi everyone,

I’ve recently started preparing and sharing plant based meal prep boxes with friends and family and I’m looking for eco friendly food boxes to package them. Sustainability is really important to me, so I’m looking for something that’s recyclable or biodegradable but also sturdy enough to handle sauces and wet dishes.

While researching, I came across these food boxes that seem like they could be a good fit: Eco-Friendly Food Boxes. They offer a variety of options, which might work well for small scale meal prep projects like mine.

I’d love to hear from anyone who’s found great packaging solutions for their meal prep or similar projects. Any advice or recommendations would be greatly appreciated!

Thanks in advance for sharing your experiences!

    Hi there!

    Great to hear that you’re prioritizing sustainability in your meal prep packaging that’s something more people are starting to care about, especially with the rise of eco-conscious consumers.

    For eco-friendly food boxes, I’ve found that kraft paper boxes with plant-based or water-based coatings are excellent for handling sauces and wet dishes while still being biodegradable. You might also want to consider compostable sugarcane (bagasse) containers they’re surprisingly sturdy, microwave-safe, and break down naturally without leaving harmful residue.

    If you’re looking for something customizable (which could be great if you expand your meal prep brand), I highly recommend checking out CBDBoxesUS.com. Although they specialize in custom CBD packaging, they also offer eco-friendly food-grade packaging solutions made from recyclable and biodegradable materials. They allow you to choose designs, coatings, and finishes that still remain environmentally friendly.

    A few tips when choosing eco-friendly boxes:

    Test with liquid-heavy meals (sauces/soups) to ensure there’s no leakage.
    Look for boxes labeled as BPA-free and compostable.
    Go for packaging that’s stackable if you’re delivering or storing meal prep boxes.
    Other popular options I’ve seen include PLA-coated containers (corn-based bioplastic) and foldable kraft take-out boxes.
