Key Features of the 15-Count Molded Pulp Egg Carton
Fifteen Individual Egg Cells
The carton contains fifteen molded egg cells arranged in three rows of five. The individual cells and raised dividers help separate adjacent eggs and maintain an organized layout during ordinary packing, handling, storage, distribution, and retail display.
Actual protection depends on egg fit, carton specification, closure performance, stacking, handling, and transportation conditions. Sample testing is recommended before bulk production.
Connected Lidded Carton Design
The connected molded pulp lid encloses the egg cells and provides a practical format for farm packing, wholesale distribution, retail presentation, and customer handling. This product is a complete lidded carton rather than an open 15-cell egg tray.
The product images show a front closure structure. Final closure details and operating performance should be confirmed for the selected carton model.
Natural Molded Pulp Fiber
The carton is made from molded pulp fiber and has a natural pulp appearance. The available product information does not identify a specific plant-fiber source, so material descriptions should remain limited to molded pulp fiber unless the final formulation is confirmed.
Supportive 3 × 5 Cell Layout
The three-row-by-five-cell arrangement creates a clearly defined fifteen-egg pack. Molded dividers help organize individual eggs and reduce direct contact between neighboring eggs under normal packing and handling conditions.
Food-Contact Documentation
Applicable food-contact documentation can be confirmed according to the selected specification, purchase order, customer requirements, and destination market. Any claim printed on customer packaging should correspond to documentation supplied for the actual order.
Recyclability and Compostability Considerations
The molded pulp carton may be recyclable where local collection and recycling systems accept this type of fiber packaging. Compostability depends on the final product specification, applicable standards, available facilities, and local disposal conditions.
Buyers should verify destination-market requirements before using environmental claims on labels, sleeves, websites, or retail packaging.
Molded Pulp Carton Body
The carton body is made from molded pulp fiber without foam or rigid plastic as the carton material. Thickened PE bags are used separately to group and protect nested cartons during storage, handling, and shipment.
Nestable Structure for Bulk Handling
Empty cartons can be nested in stacks while their lids remain connected to their bases. This arrangement supports organized warehouse storage, pallet planning, loading, and handling for wholesale and export orders.
Suitable for Fifteen-Egg Programs
The 15-count format is intended for markets and product programs requiring fifteen eggs in one lidded package. It can support farm packing, distributor programs, grocery retail, supermarket sales, private-label products, and export supply.
Common Applications
- Commercial egg farms
- Egg grading and packing stations
- Egg wholesalers and distributors
- Supermarkets and grocery retailers
- Farm shops and local food markets

- Fifteen-egg retail programs
- OEM and ODM egg-packaging projects
- Domestic wholesale and export supply
Why Choose a 15-Count Egg Carton?
A 15-count carton provides a practical format for markets where fifteen-egg retail or distribution packs are required. Its 3 × 5 arrangement combines a clearly defined pack quantity with an individual molded cell for every egg.
The rectangular three-row format can support farm packing, wholesale distribution, retail shelf presentation, and private-label product programs. Buyers should evaluate egg fit, lid clearance, closure alignment, stacking conditions, and handling before confirming an order.
For Global Wholesale and Export Buyers
KGP supplies the 15-count molded pulp egg carton for farms, packing stations, packaging distributors, wholesalers, retailers, importers, and private-label brands. Available support includes product selection, sample evaluation, specification confirmation, packing coordination, and repeat bulk production.
Final dimensions, egg-size compatibility, closure details, ventilation design, packing quantity, branding options, and commercial terms should be confirmed for the selected model and order.
Buyer Decision Guide
Test the Carton with Actual Eggs
Egg dimensions and grading standards vary between farms and markets. Samples should be tested with the actual eggs that will be packed to evaluate cell fit, divider contact, lid clearance, closure alignment, and general handling performance.
Review the Packing Workflow
Confirm that the carton is compatible with the intended manual or automated process. Buyers should evaluate how cartons are separated from their nested stacks, filled, closed, moved through the facility, stored, palletized, and prepared for shipment.
Check Lid and Closure Performance
Test whether the connected lid aligns with the base and whether the front closure operates correctly with the intended egg size. Closure performance should be evaluated under representative packing, stacking, and transportation conditions.
Confirm Retail and Branding Requirements
Private-label and retail projects may require labels, barcodes, paper sleeves, product information, or date coding. Confirm the available branding area and packing method before artwork approval.
Review Destination-Market Documentation
Food-contact and environmental documentation should be reviewed against the selected specification and destination-market requirements. Marketing claims should match the documents supplied for the order.
Thickened PE Bag Packing and Export Handling
Empty cartons are nested in stacks and packed in thickened transparent PE bags. This method keeps each stack grouped and provides additional protection from dust and ordinary warehouse handling.
The standard packing reference is 50 cartons per thickened PE bag. The final quantity per bag, stack height, PE bag specification, pallet arrangement, and loading method remain subject to order confirmation.
Standard packing does not normally require an outer paper carton. If an outer carton, pallet, label, or other export-packing arrangement is required, it should be confirmed before production.
Before ordering, buyers should confirm:
- The selected 15-count carton model
- Required quantity per thickened PE bag
- PE bag thickness and sealing requirements
- Stack height and warehouse handling method
- Palletizing and container-loading requirements
- External labels or private-label requirements
- Destination market and required documentation

Common Mistakes When Buying Molded Pulp Egg Cartons
- Ordering without egg-fit testing: Egg sizes vary, so samples should be tested with the actual eggs.
- Confusing a lidded carton with an open tray: This product has a connected lid and should not be specified as an open 15-cell tray.
- Assuming every 15-count carton is identical: Cell depth, lid shape, closure, ventilation, and overall dimensions may differ between models.
- Ignoring lid clearance: Confirm that the selected egg size allows the lid to close correctly.
- Comparing unit price alone: Egg fit, nesting efficiency, handling, packing, storage, and transport performance also affect purchasing results.
- Using unsupported environmental claims: Recycling and compostability wording should reflect the final specification and local systems.
- Assuming the carton body and transport packing use the same material: The carton is molded pulp, while separate PE bags are used for bulk packing.
- Not confirming packing quantity: Treat 50 pieces per bag as a standard reference and confirm the final order specification.
