Three portion sizes for salad bar and grab-and-go programs: 8oz side portion, 16oz single-serve entree and 24oz shareable bowl. Each is separately tooled but built to the same hinged, leak-proof design — solid walls and a full-perimeter snap-lock rim that holds dressing through delivery. The 8oz and 16oz share a 146×127mm footprint differing only in depth, giving retailers a stackable two-tier shelf block.

QUNLU presents the Clear PET/rPET Hinged Pizza Slice Clamshell for Deli Counters & Grab-and-Go Displays | 216 × 210 × 35 mm | Pizza Slice Series — a purpose-engineered packaging solution that balances visibility and food protection. Designed for demanding retail environments and fast-paced foodservice operations, this pizza slice clamshell redefines how single-portion pizza is merchandised, transported, and consumed
Product Overview and Key Features
The QUNLU pizza slice clamshell is a clear PET deli packaging product crafted to showcase and safeguard single slices of pizza in deli counters and grab-and-go displays. Measuring 216 × 210 × 35 mm, this rPET hinged container is optimized for standard slice sizes while allowing ample room for crust, toppings, and any dressings or condiments
Key features include:
- Crystal-clear clarity: The clear PET deli packaging lens offers superb product visibility, letting consumers evaluate freshness and topping quality instantly. Enhanced clarity drives impulse purchases and supports brand trust.
- Secure hinged closure: The rPET hinged container incorporates a robust hinge mechanism and snap-fit lip to ensure the container remains closed during display, transit, and handling.
- Food-safe materials: Manufactured from FDA-compliant PET and rPET materials, the pizza slice clamshell meets stringent food contact requirements, assuring operators and consumers of hygienic performance and grab-and-go food safety.
- Stackable footprint: The pizza slice clamshell stacks neatly for efficient backroom storage and for gravity-fed merchandising on deli counters. The design reduces counter clutter while maximizing display density for higher sales per square foot.
Applications and Use Cases
- Deli counters: Perfect for fresh-sliced pizza sold by the slice at deli counters, allowing staff to prepare and display slices quickly while protecting against airborne contaminants to uphold grab-and-go food safety.
- Grab-and-go displays: Designed for pre-packaged single slices placed in refrigerated or ambient grab-and-go fixtures, the rPET hinged container reduces handling and speeds checkout times.
- Food delivery and takeout: For counter pickup or short-distance delivery, the pizza slice clamshell prevents toppings from shifting and preserves presentation integrity.
- Event catering and concessions: Operators at events, stadiums, and concession stands can use these pizza slice clamshells to portion and distribute slices efficiently while maintaining grab-and-go food safety.
Innovation and Design Advantages
- Optimized geometry: The 216 × 210 × 35 mm dimensions are the result of iterative design to accommodate standard slice angles and thicknesses, preventing tip breakage and preserving toppings alignment.
- Hinge engineering: QUNLU’s precision thermoforming lines produce a hinge that withstands repeated opening and closing while maintaining the structural integrity of the clear PET deli packaging.
- Visibility-driven merchandising: The transparency of the pizza slice clamshell enhances visual merchandising strategies, enabling retailers to showcase product quality and freshness without relying on secondary packaging.
Food Safety and Regulatory Compliance
Food safety is paramount for any packaging that directly contacts prepared foods. QUNLU manufactures this pizza slice clamshell using FDA-compliant PET and rPET materials and adheres to BRC and ISO certified processes. The rPET hinged container is produced on German and Japanese thermoforming lines, ensuring consistent wall thickness, accurate forming, and tight tolerances that prevent micro-gaps and potential contamination pathways
① Leak-Proof Dressing Containment — solid non-vented walls with a snap-lock rim engaging the full perimeter, so vinaigrette and creamy dressings stay in the box through delivery-bag tilt.
② Three Portions, One Design Language — 8oz side, 16oz entree, 24oz shareable; separately tooled yet visually matched for a coherent salad-bar lineup across price points.
③ 8oz & 16oz Share a 146×127mm Footprint — same shelf slot, two depths (32mm and 60mm); the shallow 8oz nests tightly for high-density cold-case merchandising.
④ Hinged One-Piece Build — live hinge removes lid inventory and line mismatch; textured corner tabs give a positive grip for one-handed opening at the counter.
⑤ rPET Ready — GRS-certified 30 / 50 / 100% recycled PET on all three models, produced on shared lines from the same resin batches. Samples in 3–7 business days.

Dressing retention is the design priority. The snap-lock rim engages around the entire perimeter rather than at discrete tabs, so a dressed salad tilted in a delivery bag holds its liquid. Solid non-vented walls complete the seal — this range is built for dressed and wet products, not for respiring whole produce.
Textured corner tabs sit proud of the rim for a positive one-handed grip at the salad bar counter, where staff open and close packs continuously. Ribbed sidewalls stiffen lightweight 16-29.5 g parts so filled units stack in cold cases without deforming.
Thermoformed in a Class 100,000 clean room on KIEFEL (Germany) and ASANO (Japan) lines. Custom services: GRS-certified rPET (30/50/100%), custom tints, adhesive paper or PET labels with no tooling cost, and adjusted carton counts.
