APSIC #1 Kraft Take-Out Box 5"x4.5"x2.5" - Leak Resistant & Food Safe - 450 Count

Small box, serious workhorse — the APSIC #1 Kraft Take-Out Box 5"×4.5"×2.5" (SKU: CY-KTB1). Roughly the footprint of a coffee saucer and deep enough for a generous scoop, the #1 is the box you reach for a hundred times a shift: pot stickers, street tacos, wings, churros, a side of mac. Grease-resistant kraft holds up to butter, sauce, and fryer oil without darkening through to your customer's hands. 450 count per case.

Why Kitchens Keep Reordering It

• Sauce stays in, grease stays out — grease-resistant kraft keeps oily and saucy items from bleeding through the walls
• Straight from freezer to microwave — prep ahead, freeze, then reheat and serve in the same box
• Snaps shut in one motion — the fold-lock top closes with a flick, so line cooks aren't fighting packaging mid-rush
• Warm, earthy kraft finish — the unbleached brown surface reads handmade and eco-conscious, and it makes bright food look brighter
• Ships flat, stacks tight — folds down for storage, so a full case tucks under a prep table instead of eating shelf space
• Right-sized for add-ons — the 5"×4.5" footprint stops small items from sliding around a half-empty container

Best Used For

Dumpling houses portioning six-piece orders. Taquerias boxing street tacos with the lime wedge tucked in beside them. Bakeries sending home two croissants without crushing the layers. Wing shops splitting a party order into shareable portions. Delis pricing sides — potato salad, slaw, mac and cheese — as a paid add-on instead of a paper-cup afterthought. If an item is too small for a full entrée box but too good to disappear into a bag, this is its box.
