What moves the price
For prep tray, the drivers are rack standard compatibility, length, width, material, perforation, edge profile, loaf count, pan length — the spec them differently and the same item lands at either end of the band.
For mid-range custom-printed plastic prep trays, price is driven mainly by resin choice (PP/PET/PS), wall thickness, and whether the tray is thermoformed, injection-molded, or disposable nested stock with print. Published wholesale and factory quotes show lower unit prices at 1,000+ units and a sharper drop at 5,000–100,000+ for simpler disposable trays, while US-facing wholesale distributors typically sit much higher for stocked serving trays. The most realistic supplier routes are Chinese factory/import listings for landed-equivalent bulk pricing and US wholesale distributors for comparison on higher-priced finished goods
