FAQ
Q: Is the window film food-safe for direct contact with baked goods?
A: Yes. Our standard PET window film is food-grade and meets FDA 21 CFR and EU 10/2011 migration limits for direct food contact. For customers requiring compostable packaging, we offer PLA (polylactic acid) window film certified to EN 13432 industrial composting standards. Both films are supplied with full compliance documentation.
Q: Will the window fog up when warm pastries are placed inside?
A: For warm products, we recommend our anti-fog PET film treatment, which reduces condensation by 90% compared to standard PET. This is a common upgrade for bakeries packing fresh-from-the-oven items. Alternatively, we can add micro-ventilation holes (die-cut perforations) to allow moisture to escape while maintaining product visibility.
Q: Can the box hold heavier items like cakes or multiple cupcakes?
A: Yes. For heavier products, we upgrade from 350gsm to 450gsm SBS board and add an auto-lock bottom construction that can support up to 2 kg. For full-size cakes, we recommend our two-piece sleeve-and-tray design with a corrugated base for additional rigidity.
Q: What is the minimum order quantity for a fully custom window shape?
A: For fully custom die-cut window shapes, MOQ starts at 2,000 units (to amortize the custom die cost). For standard window shapes (rectangle, oval, arch) with custom printing only, MOQ can be as low as 1,000 units. New die creation takes 3–5 working days.
