What is an XPP
foam food container?

An XPP foam food container is a lightweight food package made from foamed polypropylene. In food packaging, XPP commonly refers to extruded polypropylene foam formed into trays, hinged boxes and compartment containers. Its cellular structure helps reduce heat transfer while keeping the package light.

HSQY’s range is designed for takeaway meals, food delivery, fast food and catering. Choose a format around the food you pack, then confirm its performance under your actual filling, transport and reheating conditions.

Material advantages

Insulation where it matters.
Options for the way you serve.

A polypropylene-based option for buyers evaluating an alternative to traditional polystyrene foam takeaway packaging.

Thermal insulation

A cellular foam structure helps slow heat transfer during meal delivery. Validate temperature retention with your food and delivery time.

Lightweight handling

Foaming reduces material density while providing useful wall thickness, rigidity and cushioning for everyday foodservice handling.

Grease & moisture resistance

Suitable applications include burgers, rice, noodles and prepared meals. Check oily recipes, sauces and closure fit in real transport conditions.

Flexible meal layouts

Use a common meal-box footprint with one, two or three compartments, or choose dedicated burger boxes and open trays.

From menu to packaging

Choose the format around your menu.

Match the container to the food, portion and serving method. Then check the fit with a filled sample.

For distributors: use these three product families to build a range around your customers' menus, then compare carton volume and loading quantities for each selected model.

Material selection

Is XPP the right starting point?

Start with your food, temperature and closure requirements. Then compare the packaging system.

Answers for purchasing teams

XPP food container FAQs

Product formats, material differences and the details to confirm before a commercial order.

What does XPP mean in food packaging?

XPP commonly means extruded polypropylene foam: a lightweight, cellular PP material formed into takeaway boxes and trays. HSQY’s range on this page is polypropylene foam food packaging.

Is XPP the same as EPP?

They are different foam technologies. XPP generally refers to extruded PP foam sheet that is formed into packaging. EPP generally refers to expanded PP beads molded into items such as thicker insulated transport boxes. Confirm the manufacturing process in the product specification.

What XPP food containers does HSQY supply?

The current range has seven formats: three meal boxes with different compartment layouts, two hinged burger boxes and two open food trays. All seven are shown in the product selector above.

What size XPP meal boxes does HSQY offer?

The single-, 2- and 3-compartment meal boxes all have external dimensions of 240 × 205 × 70 mm. Confirm usable capacity, internal dimensions and portion fit against a sample.

What size XPP burger boxes are available?

The two hinged burger box sizes are 135 × 135 × 70 mm and 150 × 150 × 70 mm. These are external dimensions; allow room for the bun, fillings and toppings when choosing a size.

What size XPP food trays are available?

The open trays measure 235 × 182 × 40 mm and 240 × 155 × 40 mm externally. Specify any separate lid, wrapping or serving system with the tray request.

What color are HSQY XPP containers?

The listed standard color is beige. Other color requirements can be reviewed, subject to material, production and order confirmation.

Are XPP food containers microwave safe?

The current HSQY product listings describe microwave reheating suitability. Confirm the instructions for the exact model, including microwave power, duration, food type and load. Validate those conditions before making a microwave-use claim on your finished food package.

Can an XPP food container go in the oven?

Standard XPP takeaway containers should not be selected for conventional ovens without specific approval. For oven-cooked or oven-reheated meals, discuss a suitable CPET tray and its validated temperature and time limits.

Are XPP containers suitable for hot food?

The current range is intended for hot takeaway and catering meals. Confirm the filling temperature, food weight, oil or sauce content and holding time for the selected container.

Can XPP containers be used for cold food?

XPP can also be evaluated for chilled and cold foods. Check storage temperature, condensation, closure, stacking and the intended shelf life with the actual food.

Do XPP foam containers keep food warm?

The cellular foam structure helps slow heat transfer. There is no single guaranteed holding time for every meal: food mass, starting temperature, closure, weather and delivery conditions all matter. Test the complete meal pack over your delivery route.

Are XPP containers suitable for burgers?

Yes. HSQY’s hinged burger boxes are designed for this application. Compare the two sizes with your actual burger diameter, height, toppings and stacking requirements.

Are XPP containers suitable for rice and curry?

The meal boxes can be evaluated for rice, curry, vegetables and similar prepared meals. Include the hottest and oiliest recipes in testing, and check closure performance with sauces during transport.

Why use a 2-compartment XPP meal box?

Two compartments help keep a main dish separate from a side such as rice or vegetables. This is useful when a meal needs separation without adding a second container.

Why use a 3-compartment XPP meal box?

Three compartments allow a main dish and two sides to be portioned separately. This layout can suit school lunches, workplace meals and other institutional catering menus.

Is XPP better than XPS for takeaway food?

For HSQY’s current range, XPP is the relevant starting point for insulated hot takeaway and suitable microwave reheating. XPS trays are primarily offered for chilled fresh-food overwrap. Choose against your actual temperature, closure and food requirements.

Is XPP made from polystyrene?

No. XPP is polypropylene foam. XPS and EPS are polystyrene foams. Ask for the exact material specification when comparing suppliers rather than relying on the word “foam” alone.

Is XPP recyclable?

Polypropylene foam can be recycled through suitable collection and processing systems. Local acceptance, sorting, food residue and container format determine whether recycling is practical in your market.

Can XPP food containers be reused?

Do not assume a disposable container is suitable for repeated use. A reuse project needs separate validation of cleaning, sanitation, hinge durability and food-contact performance over the intended number of cycles.

Is XPP suitable for airline catering?

It can be evaluated for airline, rail and other transport catering. Specify available space, meal weight, stacking, heating method and any sector-specific requirements before selecting the container.

Can HSQY make custom XPP food containers?

Custom dimensions, compartment layouts, color and other specifications can be discussed. Final options depend on tooling, production feasibility and purchasing quantity. Send a drawing or reference sample with your request.

What information should I provide for an XPP quotation?

Include the selected format, external size, compartments, portion weight, food type, filling temperature, delivery time and any microwave cycle. Add trial and regular order quantities, required documents and the destination country and port.

What is the minimum order quantity?

The seven current HSQY product listings each state a minimum order quantity of 30,000 pieces. Confirm the MOQ for your selected model, color and any custom specification in the quotation.

How are containers packed, and what is the lead time?

Request pieces per bag and carton, carton dimensions, gross weight and loading quantities for the selected model. Production and shipping lead times depend on the order and destination; confirm them in the quotation. No fixed lead time or case quantity is stated here.

What food-contact documents can I request?

Tell HSQY the destination market, food type, contact temperature and heating conditions. Ask which declarations and test reports are available for the exact finished container. General material descriptions or company certifications do not establish approval for every application.
