The fiber molding tray combines maximum sustainability with technical precision: biodegradable, compostable, and engineered for superior dimensional stability with our dry-fiber technology.
The fiber molding tray — also known internationally as a molded fiber tray — represents the highest level of packaging sustainability: biodegradable and compostable. Where even recycled paper still requires an industrial processing infrastructure, the fiber molding tray goes one step further: it can be disposed of in organic waste or compost after use.
Scafa Thermoforming manufactures fiber molding trays using the dry-fiber process from pure cellulose fibers and plant-based binders — free from synthetic additives, plastics, or heavy metals. The result is a tray with surprising dimensional stability, suitable for both direct food packaging and technical products as well as consumer goods.
For food manufacturers, the fiber molding tray is particularly interesting: it is food-safe, dispenses with PE coatings, and its natural fiber structure provides protection against impacts, vibrations, and compressive loads. The surface absorbs moisture vapor, which can even improve shelf life for certain fresh products.
From egg packaging to fruit and vegetable trays, electronic inlays, and cosmetic trays: the fiber molding tray is a true all-round performer among sustainable packaging formats. We manufacture your fiber molding tray to exact specifications — Made in Germany, direct from the manufacturer.
Fully decomposes in nature without harmful residues — the most consistent form of sustainable packaging.
Waterless forming process for precise dimensional accuracy, smooth surfaces, and reproducible quality.
Suitable for direct food contact without PE coating — compliant with EU food contact regulations.
Fiber molding tray: the tray with the smallest ecological footprint.
Degradable in home compost or industrial composting — no special waste, natural cycle closed.
