Can disposable paper bakeware be used in ovens?
The simple answer is YES! SOLUT! specializes in manufacturing dual-ovenable paper bakeware products, both custom and standard paper pans. In fact, disposable paper bakeware is ideal for use in both conventional and microwave ovens. Paper has long been used for baking products, and SOLUT! commercial disposable bakeware and baking pans are made with renewable corrugated paperboard materials designed specifically for use from freezer to oven to table service. Conditions can vary, but typically, disposable paper pans can safely withstand temperatures of up to 400°F for up to one hour of cooking (and often longer).
Paper Bakeware is a Competitive Solution
Most of our SOLUT! disposable bakeware products were custom designed to satisfy the demand of our customers who were primarily seeking cost-competitive alternatives to foil, metal, CPET, plastic bakeware and even standard corrugated assembled bakeware. While we specialize in developing custom applications, we also stock a complete line of paper bakeware, including our Natural Kraft and Black Elegance disposable cookware. Today, our paper bakeware is used by numerous commercial bakeries, food packer-processors and quick-serve restaurants for baking sheet cakes, cinnamon rolls, quiche, frozen microwavable entrees, bread, pies and egg soufflés, and many others.
Our Kraft line of paper bakeware was created with renewable unbleached corrugated paperboard to vividly communicate environmental benefits. We utilize FDA-compliant, aqueous coatings specially designed to deliver excellent release of baked food from the paper food surface of our disposable bakeware. Our Black Elegance line of disposable cookware provides the same outstanding baking performance while utilizing a thin layer of laminated PET film for a superior liquid barrier and a premium black appearance.
Another important characteristic that differentiates SOLUT! paper baking pans and trays is that our patented corrugated forming technologies provide exceptional insulative properties. Utilizing the wavy flutes inherent in corrugated paper, our thermoformed disposable bakeware enables food to stay hotter longer – and disposable paper pans are cool to the touch after baking.
In addition to our line of corrugated paper bakeware, SOLUT! also manufactures paper baking molds, cups and sustainable food packaging that is formed from single-ply, solid paperboard. Our solid paperboard trays are also designed for conventional or microwave baking - perfect for individual servings particularly when exceptional corrugated strength is not required, Again, numerous FDA-compliant food surface coatings are available to solve your requirements for product release or holdout from liquids and grease.

Paper Bakeware Usage Guidelines
SOLUT!’s line of dual ovenable paper bakeware trays are intended for use in residential and commercial conventional ovens using gas and electric, as well as in microwave ovens.
Our disposable bakeware can be used in the following acceptable range of times and temperatures from – 40 degrees Fahrenheit indefinitely to 400 degrees Fahrenheit for up to 60 minutes depending upon the type of food product and the food load contained in the tray. SOLUT! disposable cookware should not be subjected to use in compact, portable or “toaster” ovens. SOLUT! paper bakeware should never be placed under a broiler or on the lower rack position of any oven nor should they ever be positioned to touch the walls of the oven. SOLUT! disposable commercial bakeware should never be reused for any purpose in a gas or electric oven.
For best results, SOLUT! paper bakeware, although based upon years of experience and testing, should be tested using the actual tray materials, food ingredients and conditions as intended to be used by the customer. Actual temperatures and times using paper bakeware trays may be significantly less than the maximum indicated above based upon the food ingredients and food loads. Only testing by the customer will determine actual limitations of use appropriate for each product.
