Egg Carton Varieties
1. Paper Pulp Cartons
Paper pulp cartons are biodegradable and made of recycled material and are affordable by small as well as large poultry farms. They are favored by eco-friendly brands.
2. Foam Egg Cartons
These cartons provide good shock absorption, insulation, and eggs remain fresher longer. They are however not biodegradable and are becoming unpopular as environmental issues are taken into consideration.
3. Plastic Egg Cartons
Plastic cartons (made of PET or polystyrene) are highly visible, which enables customers to examine eggs prior to buying. They are strong and waterproof.
