The invention relates to a packaging tray (1), produced from a thermoformed plastics sheet, with a base (10), sidewalls (11, 12) and a sealing edge (13) which is formed peripherally on the upper side of the sidewalls (11, 12) and onto which a sealing film (2) can be placed and can be bonded to the sealing edge (13), in which the sealing edge (13) is formed with a contact surface, which is provided for supporting the sealing film, with a profiling in the form of projections (133) in each case forming part of the contact surface and with depressions (134) which run between adjacent projections (133) and interrupt the contact surface, wherein the depressions (134) in each case define a receiving volume.

Separate food cups joined by seal sheet hinge

A food containment assembly includes a first cup with a first sealing flange and a second cup with a second sealing flange. The second cup is separate from and disposed adjacent to the first cup. A seal sheet is adhered to the first sealing flange and the second sealing flange, and the seal sheet forms a hinge to allow rotation of the second cup with respect to the first cup. The seal sheet includes a first slit disposed proximate the hinge and a second slit proximate the hinge, wherein tearing the seal sheet along the first slit allows access to contents of the first cup and tearing the seal sheet along the second slit allows access to contents of the second cup and the hinge remains intact.
