Item # WR2216-1040 is a 1040ml rectangular wrinkle-wall aluminum foil container in the classic takeaway size, built for restaurant to-go meals, delivery orders, and meal-prep distribution. The crimped wall profile gives the container its load strength, and the IVC rim accepts crimp-on foil-laminated board lids for a closed, transport-ready pack.

Ask a takeaway restaurant what container runs the most volume and the answer is usually this footprint: roughly 220×160mm, about one liter, one lid. Item # WR2216-1040 is that container in wrinkle-wall construction—rice bowls, noodle dishes, curries, pasta, and sauced entrees all pack into it, and the crimped wall gives it the rigidity that delivery work demands. For restaurants, cloud kitchens, and meal-prep operators, it is the base SKU of a to-go program.
The crimped folds pressed into the sidewall are structural ribs. A hot, freshly filled container of curry or pasta weighs close to a kilogram and travels stacked in a bag on a scooter; the wrinkle profile keeps the walls from bowing under that load and keeps the rim plane flat so the lid stays crimped. Smooth-wall containers at the same gauge would not survive the same delivery run.
The interrupted vertical curl rim is formed to take crimp-on foil-laminated board lids: the lid edge folds under the rim flange by hand or with a simple press, closing the container without heat-sealing equipment. The foil side of the lid faces the food as a grease and moisture barrier, and the board side can carry printed branding or order labels. Closed containers stack for the delivery bag and hold their seal through the ride.
Part of this container's value shows up after the sale: the customer can put it straight into a conventional oven to reheat, without transferring to a plate. Food-grade aluminum handles oven temperatures and freezer storage equally well, so restaurants can also sell chilled or frozen take-home meals in the same SKU they use for hot delivery.
A busy takeaway line consumes hundreds of containers a day, which makes packing density and unit cost the deciding factors. These containers ship nested in bulk cartons engineered for export container loading, and the wrinkle-wall family covers adjacent sizes from 445ml snack portions to multi-liter sharing formats, so one supplier relationship covers the whole menu.
