Key Features & Benefits
- Food-Grade Stainless Steel: Made from 304 stainless steel (or optional 316 for high-corrosion environments), our trays are non-toxic, rust-resistant, and safe for direct contact with food.
- Optimized Airflow Design: The open mesh structure allows hot air to circulate freely around the food, speeding up drying time and reducing energy consumption by up to 30% compared to solid trays.
- High Load Capacity: With a wire diameter ranging from 0.8mm to 2.0mm, each tray can hold up to 15 kg of product without deformation, perfect for heavy fruits like apples or mangoes.
- Easy to Clean: Smooth surface and welded joints prevent food residue from sticking; simply rinse with water or place in a dishwasher.
- Stackable & Space-Saving: Designed with reinforced edges or optional stacking legs, you can stack multiple trays vertically to maximize drying capacity in your dehydrator or oven.
- Customizable Dimensions: Available in standard sizes (e.g., 400x600mm, 500x800mm) or made-to-order dimensions to fit your specific equipment.
- Long Service Life: High-quality stainless steel resists corrosion and wear, ensuring years of reliable performance even with daily use.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
-
Is this tray food-grade and safe for direct contact with food?
Yes, our trays are made from 304 stainless steel, which is a food-grade material widely used in the food industry. It is non-toxic, rust-resistant, and does not leach harmful chemicals. -
What mesh size should I choose for drying fruits vs. meat?
For fruits and vegetables, a mesh opening of 4-6mm is recommended to allow airflow while preventing small pieces from falling through. For meat strips, 6-8mm works well. Custom sizes are available for specialized needs. -
Can I use this tray in a microwave or oven?
Yes, the tray can withstand temperatures up to 400°C, making it suitable for conventional ovens and dehydrators. However, avoid sudden temperature changes to prevent warping. -
How do I clean the tray after use?
Rinse with warm water and mild detergent, then scrub gently with a non-abrasive sponge. For stubborn residue, soak in hot water for 10 minutes. It is also dishwasher safe. -
Do you offer custom sizes or shapes?
Absolutely. We can customize the tray dimensions, mesh opening, wire diameter, and edge type to fit your specific equipment. Please provide your requirements for a quote. -
What is the maximum weight the tray can hold?
Depending on the wire diameter and mesh size, the load capacity ranges from 5 kg to 15 kg. For heavy loads, we recommend using a thicker wire (e.g., 2.0mm) and smaller mesh openings. -
Will the tray rust or corrode over time?
No, 304 stainless steel offers excellent corrosion resistance under normal drying conditions. For high-salt or acidic foods (e.g., salted fish, citrus), we recommend upgrading to 316 stainless steel for enhanced durability. -
What is the lead time for bulk orders?
Standard sizes have a lead time of 15-20 days. Custom orders typically require 20-30 days, depending on complexity. We can expedite for urgent orders – please contact us.
