Frequently Asked Questions About Angle Type Trays

The EKMAŞ Angle Type Tray, also known as a sloped-side tray, is a professional aluminium bakery tray designed for both oven baking and product display. Its angled side structure provides compatibility with 40x60 cm and 60x80 cm pan trolleys while also supporting easy stacking and practical handling.
Why is it called an Angle Type Tray?
Unlike trays with vertical sides, an Angle Type Tray has edges that slope outwards. This angled construction allows the trays to be stacked more easily, removed conveniently from a pan trolley and stored more efficiently on bakery racks. In the Turkish bakery industry, this model is also widely known as an Italian tray.
What is the difference between an Angle Type Tray and a standard flat tray?
Standard flat trays generally have straighter, more vertical sides. An Angle Type Tray is distinguished by its tapered, outward-sloping edge profile. This construction provides advantages in ergonomics, compatibility with pan trolleys, stackability and product presentation. The angled sides also allow the trays to sit more neatly when stacked.
Which businesses use Angle Type Trays?
Angle Type Trays can be used in bread bakeries, pastry shops, bakery production facilities, hotels, restaurants and catering companies. Their ability to serve both as baking trays and product display trays makes them particularly practical for businesses with customer-facing sales areas.
What material are Angle Type Trays made from?
Angle Type Trays are generally manufactured from aluminium because of its lightweight structure, effective heat conductivity and suitability for professional bakery use. Coated and uncoated options can be selected according to production requirements. Coated models help reduce sticking and make cleaning easier.
What are the main features of an Angle Type Tray?
The most distinctive feature of an Angle Type Tray is its outward-sloping side structure. This design supports easy stacking, compatibility with pan trolleys and attractive product presentation. Its aluminium body provides lightweight handling, while coated models help baked products release more easily from the tray surface.
Can products stick to an Angle Type Tray?
The risk of sticking depends on the dough recipe, tray coating, baking temperature and preparation method. Coated Angle Type Trays help reduce adhesion between the dough and the tray surface. With uncoated models, correct greasing, suitable baking conditions and regular maintenance are important.
Can Angle Type Trays be manufactured in custom sizes?
Yes. Angle Type Trays can be manufactured in standard dimensions compatible with professional ovens and pan trolleys, as well as in custom sizes for specific production lines. The oven dimensions, pan trolley type, product form and daily production capacity should all be considered when selecting the correct size.
Can aluminium Angle Type Trays rust?
Aluminium Angle Type Trays do not develop conventional rust. However, correct cleaning and maintenance are important for preserving the surface quality and extending service life. The trays should be cleaned and dried after use, and abrasive cleaning products should be avoided.
