Indian Takeaway Packaging for Tauranga
Curry sauce finds every weak point in a bad container — so use good ones.
Tauranga's hospo scene keeps growing, and Indian food is right in the thick of it. Whether you're running a curry house near the Mount or a dosa spot in the CBD, your containers need to handle hot, saucy, heavy food without going soggy or popping a lid in the delivery bag.
We stock containers in bio, black plastic, and standard formats — sizes from 280ml up to 5 litres. One Tauranga operator is already ordering through us. Orders placed before 4pm on stocked lines go out the same day.
Containers that handle the heavy stuff
Indian mains are dense, wet, and hot. A flimsy container is a liability. The RF0610.1 Bonson Wide Base 700ml Black Container has a broad base that sits stable in a bag and a secure lid that doesn't flex open. Sold in cartons of 500. Good for butter chicken, lamb korma, dhal — anything saucy.
For bigger portions or family packs, the H4208 5ltr DG Plastic Container with Cap takes bulk curries or rice for catering runs. It's not glamorous, but it holds five litres without drama.
Bio options for the eco-conscious crowd
If your customers care about what the packaging is made from, we have bio square and rectangular containers that work for the same applications. The RF4204 Bio Square Container 280ml suits side portions — chutneys, raita, small sides. Pair it with the RF4218 Bio Lid (fits both 280ml and 480ml bio square containers), sold in cartons of 600.
The F1855 Biopak Rectangular Container 500ml handles a standard single serve. 300 per carton. The F4229 BioCane Takeaway Tray 500ml is a good option for drier dishes — think naan-based meals or dry curries where you want presentation without the full container bulk.
Black oval containers for the premium presentation
Some operators want the food to look good, not just travel well. The RF4680 Black Oval Container 500ml and the RF4683 Black Oval Container 750ml both come in cartons of 250. Dark base, clean lines — the kind of container that looks intentional rather than afterthought. Suits restaurant-quality takeaway menus where presentation is part of the offer.

Frequently asked
What size container works best for a standard single curry serve?+
Most single curry portions sit comfortably in a 500ml to 700ml container. The RF0610.1 700ml Bonson Wide Base is a popular choice — wide enough to keep the lid pressure off the food and stable enough for delivery bags.
Do the bio containers hold up with hot, wet curries?+
The Bio Square and Biopak Rectangular containers handle hot food well. For very wet, oily curries over a long delivery window, plastic containers like the Bonson Wide Base are more reliable. The bio options suit drier dishes or shorter runs.
Can I get containers for bulk catering orders — family packs or event trays?+
Yes. The H4208 5ltr DG Plastic Container with Cap is built for bulk. It's a straight-sided container with a secure cap, suited to catering quantities of curry, rice, or dal.
Is custom printing available on these containers?+
Custom print isn't listed on these stocked lines. Contact us directly to discuss what's possible — minimum quantities and lead times vary by product.
What's the cut-off time to get same-day dispatch to Tauranga?+
Orders on stocked lines placed before 4pm on a NZ business day go out the same day. That applies to the products listed on this page.
