Market Advantages Of Paper Egg Tray
PAPER EGG TRAY MANUFACTURING IS A GOOD CHOICE FOR YOU!
- Raw Material
The raw materials of the paper egg trays include waste A4 paper, old books, magazines, cartons, cardboard, newspapers, discarded paper egg trays, various types of plant fiber pulp, and other recycled paper-made products. They are all easy to find and have low prices.
- Performance
Paper egg tray has good anti-static performance, anti-corrosion performance, waterproof performance, and shock absorption performance, which reduces the damage probability of eggs. In addition, it will not pollute the environment and can be recycled. It is called green packaging.
Paper Egg Tray
- It uses low-cost waste paper as raw material.
- The production process has less pollution or no pollution.
- In most cases, water used in the production line can be reused.
- The air permeability and shock absorption performance are good.
- Paper egg trays are biodegradable, recyclable, and harmless to the environment.
Plastic Egg Tray
- It uses high-cost plastic and waste plastic as raw materials.
- Its air permeability and shock absorption performance are poor.
- In most cases, water used in the production line can not be reused.
- Plastic egg trays are difficult to degrade. They are harmful to the environment.
- The pollutants and polluted gases will cause great damage to the environment.
- Production Process
The production process of the paper egg trays is simple and pollution-free, the production speed is fast, and the efficiency is as high as 98% – 99%. A small egg tray making machine can produce more than one ton of egg trays in a day. Besides, it has low technical requirements for personnel.
- Investment Cost & Profits
The capital investment of paper egg trays is relatively small, the profit is high and the cycle is short. Except for equipment costs, the main costs during production include power, water, raw materials, labor, and maintenance. Let’s take a small egg tray machine as an example, which can make 1000 pieces of egg trays per hour.

Detailed Paper Egg Tray Manufacturing Process
PAPER EGG TRAY MANUFACTURING PROCESS INCLUDES FOUR STEPS: PULPING, MOLDING, DRYING, AND PACKAGING.
Paper Pulping Process
Firstly, workers need to manually (or assisted by a belt conveyor) feed waste paper into the hydraulic pulper. The waste paper is stirred, rubbed, and crushed in the pulper with a certain proportion of water (20%-30% water and 70%-80% paper) until the paper pulp is formed. After the paper pulp is prepared, the impurities in the pulp will be filtered out by a screener and then the purified pulp is transported to the pulp pool for temporary storage. Next to the pulp pool are mixing tanks where the paper pulp is homogenized by pulp beaters for a better concentration. In this process, we can add pigments and other additives. The number of mixing tanks can be increased or decreased according to the production scale.
Paper Egg Tray Molding Process
The egg tray molding process follows after the pulping process. The pulp pump sends paper pulp into the slurry hopper under the egg tray making machine. With the help of a vacuum pump system, paper pulp is tightly adsorbed on the rotary mold for shape forming. Meanwhile, a part of moisture in the pulp is taken away by this system. The water sucked out is stored in a water tank prepared for secondary application. After that, the air compressor system assists to separate the formed egg trays from the molds, and then the egg trays are carried away by the belt conveyor to the drying system. After the above processes are complete, the cleaning device will clean the mold.
Paper Egg Tray Drying Process
The Paper egg tray drying process is to completely dehydrates the egg tray for improving the firmness and shockproof performance. It mainly has natural drying, brick drying, and metal drying three modes.
- 1. Natural drying is to dry egg trays under the sun or inside a room with normal temperature.
- 2. Brick drying refers to building a brick kiln with a length of at least 25-65m. Egg trays are dried in the brick kiln by evaporating water at high temperatures. It can adopt natural gas, coal, diesel, wood, and other fuels as a combustion heat source. The egg trays can be placed manually or by belt conveyor. It decides the automatic level.
- 3. Metal drying means drying egg trays by a complete automatic metal-structure system. It can be divided into single layer and multi-layer which is decided by your production scale. It has a built-in conveyor belt, and we can dry egg trays at high temperatures through an intelligent electronic control system. The metal drying system mainly uses LPC, LNG, diesel, and natural gas as heating fuel.
Paper Egg Tray Packaging Process
The paper egg tray packaging process mainly includes three steps: hot pressing, counting, and packaging. Egg trays will be firstly fed into the hot press machine for smoothing surface, unifying thickness, and polishing edges under a high temperature. Then they will be packed in a certain amount by an automatic counter and packer. If adding a label or pattern on the egg tray is necessary, you can equip your egg tray production line with a labeling machine or printing machine.
