12 Inch Pizza Boxes

The size that moves the most units — stocked, priced for volume, and ready to go.

Our 12 inch pizza boxes are one of our highest-turnover lines. Solid construction, a secure tuck-front closure, and a vented lid that actually lets steam escape without turning the base to mush.

Available in kraft and white. Order by the case or talk to us about pallet pricing if you're running high volume.

Specs That Matter

These boxes are built for a standard 12-inch pizza — the most common size across NZ pizzerias, takeaways, and food trucks. Here's what you're getting:

  • Internal dimensions: 12" x 12" x 1.75"
  • Material: Single-wall corrugated board
  • Finish: Kraft (natural brown) or white clay-coated exterior
  • Closure: Auto-bottom with tuck-front lid
  • Vent holes: Yes — standard perforated venting on lid
  • Food-safe lining: Yes, suitable for direct food contact

They stack flat, store tight, and assemble fast during a rush — which is the point.

Kraft or White: Which One to Pick

Both options use the same corrugated board and construction. The difference is cosmetic and branding-driven.

Kraft: The natural brown look. Works well for operators going for a straightforward, no-fuss aesthetic. Cheaper per unit at most volume tiers. Hides grease marks better in transit.

White: Clay-coated exterior prints better if you're adding a custom stamp or sticker. Looks cleaner under bright lighting — good for dine-in or premium positioning. Slightly higher cost per case.

If you're undecided, most operators start with kraft and switch to white when they're ready to add branding. Either way, the box does the same job.

Who These Boxes Are For

If you're running a pizzeria, this is your main box. But 12-inch boxes move across a wider range of operations than you'd think:

  • Pizza-by-the-slice counters that upsize orders
  • Food trucks doing whole pies on location
  • Pubs and bars with a pizza menu on the side
  • Ghost kitchens running multiple pizza SKUs
  • Catering operations doing event-format pizza service

The 12-inch is also a useful overflow box if you occasionally do larger calzones or flatbreads that need a square footprint.
