Material Handling Tray: wholesale price
A typical US business buyer pays a median of $18.00 per unit at small order quantities, falling to $5.00 at volume, on a typical 30-day lead time. These medians come from published supplier pricing. Treat them as a starting point, not a binding quote. Your spec and quantity set the final price.

What moves the price
For material handling tray, the drivers are material, load capacity, ESD rating, stackable design, size, surface texture, tote footprint, material type — the spec them differently and the same item lands at either end of the band.
Quoted US-facing tray pricing is highly configuration-dependent: ESD-safe thermoformed trays from MFG Tray show published USD prices in the roughly $40-$70 range for small case-pack quantities, while custom tray makers such as Great River Plastics and Wetop Acrylic state that pricing varies by size, material, printing, and features rather than posting fixed rates. For a mid-range custom-printed production tray, the biggest cost drivers are material choice, ESD requirement, load capacity, and tooling/print setup; bulk import or offshore OEM sourcing is the realistic route for the lower tiers, while US thermoformers are more plausible for faster lead times and tighter quality control. The ladder above is an extrapolated wholesale band anchored to the published tray price points and to supplier statements about bulk/custom pricing rather than to a single fully published OEM quote
