Thermoformed containers are rigid packaging solutions made from thermoplastic materials that are shaped using heat and pressure. The process involves heating a plastic sheet until it becomes pliable, then forming it into a specific shape using molds. These containers are commonly used in the food industry for packaging a variety of products, including fresh produce, ready-to-eat meals, and deli items.
