Custom Meat Boxes: Grass Fed & Finished Meat Packaging
Gone are the days when people used to go to the butcher’s shop and bring fresh meat in plastic bags. With digitalization, the trend has completely changed. Now, people prefer purchasing meat online just like other things. But there is a challenge for you as a meat or butcher business. WHAT’S THE CHALLENGE! You have to ship the meat to the destination, locking in its freshness and preventing it from spoiling. And you HAVE TO ENSURE THIS, otherwise you will never get a customer again.
If you are a meat provider who provides meat on both platforms: online and grocery stores, you need effective presentation and efficient storage in the refrigerators. Why? Because without proper presentation, your brand will be unknown, as meat is not something different from different brands. You need proper packaging that keeps your meat fresh, does not leak, highlights your brand, and captivates customers to buy the one from your brand. The customized boxes for meat will do all these tasks.
At MyBoxPrinting, you can get customized meat boxes that attract customers towards your brand without compromising on the meat quality. Our boxes are made from food-safe materials that maintain meat freshness, do not contaminate food, and keep it safe from moisture. Contact us to pop your meat products onto the refrigerators.
What Are Meat Boxes?
The meat boxes are the containers that preserve farm meat products, including bone-in, boneless chicken breast, pork chops, grass-fed beef, and ground beef. These boxes ensure the quality and freshness of these products when they are stored in a refrigerator or shipped.
What Kind of Meat Can These Meat Boxes Store?
These boxes are designed with properties: water-resistant, leak-proof, sustainably crafted, and durable. All these properties of boxes make them favorable for all kinds of meat storage:
1. Grass-finished and pastured-finished beef
2. Salmon fish and seafood
3. Responsibly farmed sirloin and spare ribs
4. Pasture-raised strip steaks of bison and ribeye
5. Quality cuts of pork
6. Chicken and turkey breasts and spare parts
Benefits of Meat and Poultry Packaging
Meat packaging is necessary to prevent spoilage and wastage of pastured-raised beef and other beef products. It is a go-to option for the following logistics performance benefits:
Food Safety & Preservation of Perishable Products
The food packaging protects these perishable meat products from bacterial contamination, physical damage, and temperature variations. The meat is safe and tender for 21+ days, so you can easily heat in the oven, microwave, and air fryer.
Extends The Shelf Life of Butchered Products
The butchered products are more prone to spoilage due to environmental factors like heat, sunlight, and moisture. The packaging prevents these elements that are the culprits behind spoilage.
Brand Promotion and Marketing
The beef, pork, and poultry products are packaged for another primary purpose, i.e., brand marketing opportunities. They showcase your brand when refrigerators are already flooded with beef, steak, and other such products.
Provides Labeling Information
The perishable products like steak, bacon, and grass-fed beef need labeling information to ensure the food is best used for how long. The packaging provides the labeling information, including the manufacturing date, expiry date, and the quantity of ingredients (proteins).
Preservation During Meat Delivery
During shipping, the meat can spoil soon due to the absence of a refrigerator and environmental factors. Packaging is paramount to make the meat reach its destination in perfect condition.
Sustainable, Eco-friendly, and Food-Safe Materials
The meat and food box packaging is made from eco-friendly and food-safe materials that maintain the hygiene of food and also keep the environment safe from land waste.
Space Saving Design For Optimized Storage
Our USDA-certified meat packaging boxes are compact and space-efficient, which reduces the storage space up to 85% as compared to styrofoam and plastic boxes.
Meets Both Cold Chain and Retail Demands
Our meat packaging fulfills all the cold-chain and retail needs for keeping the pasture-raised beef fresh and flavorful.
Labor-Saving Design To Speed Up The Stocking Process
The retail-ready design boxes are pre-glued, which does not allow you to manually assemble them. This saves time, cost, and labor for packaging meat.
Types of Meat Packaging Boxes You Must Give A Try
It is not a hard and fast rule to have beef, pork, turkey, or chicken packaged in the same type of packaging always. There are different packaging solutions, some of which are listed below:
Bulk Bins
These are the frozen meat boxes designed in quarter, half, whole, and bulk quantities for stocking a variety of products from the ranch and family farms. They are available in single, double, and triple-wall construction according to your product needs.
Corrugated Boxes
These are the folding cartons made from corrugated materials. They are best for shipping meat from the butcher's shop or grocery store to the destination. These can be white frozen meat boxes, steak and grilled boxes for beef, bison, or venison.
Corrugated Trays
The trays are also used for meat packaging, but with a thin layer or film of food-safe plastic, i.e., the PE lining. This lining material keeps the flesh safe from contamination. The process in trays that extends the shelf life is called "Modified Atmosphere Packaging (MAP)". The air is substituted inside the packaging with a protective gas mix.
Crash Lock Boxes / Auto Lock Boxes
These are the boxes with an interlocking base that eliminates the need for any glue or adhesive. They are also known as auto-lock bottom boxes. They are quick and easy to assemble.
Fish Boxes
The fish are stored in the dry ice to lock in their crust, flavor, and freshness. Moreover, the dry ice keeps them dry, and they do not melt. So the fish boxes are designed keeping these things in account. They are durable enough to withstand the rigors of the cold chain so that the seafood reaches the destination in the best condition possible.
Subscription and Curated Boxes
Subscription boxes are organic meat curated boxes designed to retain the cooperative and potential customers. How? The meat companies offer subscription boxes that contain a variety of beef, pork, chicken products and seafood of their choice every month. This develops a habit in customers for purchasing from the same farms and fisheries companies.
Butcher Paper Packaging
The butcher paper packaging is a traditional type of packaging that keeps the red meat fresh and breathable. It is recommended during BBQ, roasting, broiling, and grilling to develop a crust. Anyhow, we do not recommend this packaging solution if you want to store beef or pork for a long time.
Vacuum Sealed Bags
Another way to store meat is vacuum-sealed bags from which air is removed. It is done so to slow down the bacterial growth and oxidation to prevent spoilage. It extends the shelf life of meat products.
Materials That Ensure Quality and Great Meat Delivered To Your Door
For food items like meat that need a freezer to prevent spoiling, you must choose materials wisely. Besides food spoilage, it is associated with human health, which can not be put at risk. You have to responsibly choose materials that are food-grade, leak-proof, and durable. We recommend the following materials:
Corrugated Cardboard With PE Lining: Triple Layer Cardboard
Corrugated cardboard is a durable material that is made by corrugating a Kraft layer between two cardboard layers. It is the best material for keeping the meat fresh during storage in freezers or during transportation. The PE lining ensures a safe direct contact with food without the fear of leakage.
If you want to deliver the best meat, we recommend corrugated cardboard. It is highly durable, has affordable pricing, and is easy to customize.
Standard Sizes and Dimensions For Grass-Fed Meat Boxes
The standard sizes for meat packaging boxes rely on the quantity and weight of the meat to be stored. We recommend custom sizes that accommodate the exact amounts of beef, chicken, pork, and seafood. Standard sizes are also available if you want. Have a look at the following standard sizes you might be looking for:
1) 7.64” x 7.44” x 2.32”
2) 9” x 4.5” x 4.2”
3) 9.25” x 15.75” x 23.625”
4) 18” x 14” x 10”
