What Types of Flip-Top Packages Can You Produce?

DABA clamshell thermoforming machines are engineered to handle the complete range of hinged-lid packaging products across fresh produce, bakery, deli, food service, and retail markets:

• Berry & Fresh Produce Clamshells — Clear PET clamshells with ventilation holes for strawberries, blueberries, raspberries, cherries, and grape tomatoes. Precision-scored hinges that withstand cold-chain handling, and interlocking tabs for secure transport without taped seals.

• Salad & Grab-and-Go Containers — Large-format clear PET clamshells for supermarket-packaged salads, pasta meals, cut fruit, and ready-to-eat lunch products. Deep-draw base combined with shallow lid for product showcase and efficient shelf space utilization.

• Bakery & Pastry Packaging — Clear PET clamshells for cupcakes, cookies, pastries, macarons, and artisan bread. Premium transparency showcases decorated products — critical for impulse purchase appeal in bakery cases.

• Deli & Prepared Food Containers — Rigid PP or CPET clamshells for sandwiches, wraps, sushi, pre-packaged meals, and hot deli items. CPET clamshells are oven-safe up to 220°C for ready-to-heat applications.
