Which container for…? Pizza...
Pizza is a classic that needs no introduction. The Italians have their Neapolitan Margherita – simple yet brilliant. Looking around the world, though, you might be surprised. In Japan, pizza is topped with mayonnaise and seafood, in Sweden with banana and curry, and in Brazil with corn and peas. But one thing is certain – even the best pizza can lose all its magic if it reaches the customer cold or smashed in a poor-quality box. That’s exactly why the topic of pizza packaging is so important.
Materials used to produce pizza boxes
Around the world, you can find various types of packaging – even plastic, round containers that look like lunchboxes. In Poland, however, the most common choice is cardboard pizza boxes, and increasingly also sugarcane boxes, for example.
Let’s not beat around the bush – the king of them all is the corrugated cardboard pizza box. It’s the standard in the food industry – from neighborhood pizzerias to large chains.
- Sizes: from 22×22 cm up to maxi 60×60 cm.
- Colors: white–brown or brown–brown.
- Shapes: straight or cut corners. Straight ones are stiffer and more stable, while cut ones look lighter – it’s mostly a matter of preference.

Which pizza box to choose? What to pay attention to
Most cardboard boxes do not have certification for direct contact with food. There are also certified food packaging options, but they are noticeably more expensive. That’s why, in practice, pizza makers more often go for standard cardboard boxes and add a barrier:
Key details to consider
- Ventilation: holes release steam to prevent the crust from becoming soggy (the downside is that the pizza may cool faster during longer deliveries).
- Box height: about 3.5 cm for a thin Margherita; 4–5 cm for thicker pizzas with lots of toppings.
- Stack stability: the box should support the weight of several others stacked on top without collapsing.
- Corner type: straight = more rigidity; cut = lighter appearance.
Printed pizza boxes – branding that works
A pizza box isn’t just cardboard. It’s a huge advertising surface – and it would be a shame not to use it. When a customer orders a pizza, they look at the box for a few moments before opening it. Those few seconds are enough for your logo, slogan, or design to make an impression and build brand awareness.
- Recognition: the box works like a mini billboard.
- Professionalism: a plain box looks “generic,” while a printed one says “real pizzeria.”
- Consistency: repeated exposure to the logo builds familiarity and customer loyalty.
- Advertising you pay for once: every box delivered is free brand exposure.
- Stand out: a custom slogan, color, or design makes you different from the competition.

Pizza transport – how to deliver it hot
Baking a pizza is one thing, but delivering it hot is the real challenge. A cold pizza is a sure way to lose a customer.
