SAYREVILLE, NJ., April 9, 2024—Sabert Corporation, a leading global manufacturer of innovative food packaging solutions, today announced the launch of its new line of Pulp Protein and Produce Trays. This certified commercially compostable packaging solution provides food service operators with a sustainable alternative to traditional foam trays without compromising on quality and performance.

The Pulp 2S Produce Tray caters to the growing consumer trend of hybrid cooking, blending meal planning, meal kits and ready-to-eat items. This tray is ideal for full or cut vegetables and fruits and fresh meal ingredients. Engineered with Sabert's Pulp Plus™ molded fiber blend, the Pulp Produce Tray is refrigerator safe for up to seven days.

The Pulp 3P Protein Tray is suitable for a wide range of proteins, including chicken, beef, steak, seafood, and plant-based alternatives. Crafted with Sabert's new proprietary Pulp Ultra™ coated formulation, this tray offers unparalleled moisture protection, ensuring oil-heavy food items remain fresh. The Pulp Protein Tray is designed to be refrigerator-safe for up to 30 days, surpassing the average supermarket shelf life.

“Our new Pulp Produce and Protein Trays are the perfect example of Sabert’s mission-driven purpose of reinventing food packaging to nourish and protect our world,” said Stephny Halstead, Vice President, Marketing and New Product Development at Sabert. “The trays combine sustainability, versatility and durability, helping retailers and operators meet the growing demand for environmentally responsible solutions that still deliver food protection, preservation and presentation.”

Sabert’s Pulp 2S Produce and 3P Protein Trays offer significant advantages:

• Sustainability: The compostable PFAS-Free pulp trays are an eco-friendly alternative to traditional foam, bio-based and derived from renewable resources and supporting a circular solution with sustainable end-of-life disposal.
• Superior Performance: The Pulp 3P Protein Tray with the Pulp Ultra™ formulation delivers ultimate grease and moisture resistance, maintaining its integrity against natural fats and oils often found in proteins. The Pulp 2S Produce Tray is formulated to accommodate both whole and sliced fruits and vegetables.
