Poultry farms and egg distributors across France face rising costs for molded pulp packaging. Buying ready-made cartons from suppliers cuts into profit margins and creates dependence on external logistics. Many farms want to produce their own egg trays on-site but worry about machine complexity and paper waste. YG Machinery’s egg carton machine solves these problems with automated pulp molding systems that turn waste paper into finished trays. The YG-1500 to YG-7000 models offer capacities from 1,500 to 7,000 pieces per hour. These egg tray manufacturing machines have gained strong interest across France’s agricultural sector. 【WhatsApp/WeChat/Skype/Phone】+86 159 3715 2330

Case Study One: France – Poultry Farm On-Site Tray Production
Client Background
A family-run poultry farm in France supplies 80,000 eggs per week to local markets and restaurants. The farm previously purchased molded pulp trays from a distributor at €0.12 per tray.
Client Challenge
Rising tray prices cut into the farm’s profit margin. Delivery delays sometimes forced the farm to use plastic alternatives that customers disliked. The owner wanted to produce trays on-site using waste paper from office and packaging.
YG Solution
YG supplied the YG-2500 egg carton machine with 2,500pcs/h capacity and 55kw power. The system turns 200kg of waste paper into 2,500 trays per hour. The 400kg/h water consumption suits the farm’s well supply. The compact footprint fits in an existing storage building. YG provided training on pulp preparation and mold changing.
Client Feedback and Results
“We now produce 20,000 trays per day using paper we used to throw away. The trays cost us €0.04 each instead of €0.12. The machine paid for itself in 7 months.” The farm owner confirmed the trays meet French food contact standards. The farm stopped buying from distributors entirely.


Case Study Two: Bolivia – Egg Distributor Tray Production Expansion
Client Background
An egg distributor in Bolivia supplies 500,000 eggs weekly to supermarkets across three regions. The company imported trays from Brazil but faced 30% price increases over two years.
Client Challenge
Import costs and customs delays disrupted the distributor’s supply chain. The company needed a reliable egg crate making machine that could handle local recycled paper quality. Local electricity supply fluctuated, requiring stable motor performance.
YG Solution
YG recommended the YG-4000 egg carton machine with 4,000pcs/h capacity and 95kw power. The 320kg/h paper consumption matches the distributor’s available recycled cardboard. The 4X8 mold configuration produces standard 30-egg trays. YG provided a voltage stabilizer to handle power fluctuations. The machine’s 640kg/h water consumption works with the company’s existing supply.
Client Feedback and Results
“The YG-4000 produces 32,000 trays daily using local cardboard waste. We eliminated import costs and customs delays completely. The machine runs 16 hours daily without issues.” The distributor now supplies trays to other regional egg producers, creating an additional revenue stream.
