An egg carton making machine converts waste paper into molded packaging for eggs and other products. It is commonly used by egg farms, packaging suppliers, and recycling businesses. The machine supports pulping, forming, and drying, with capacities from 1500 to 7000 pcs/h. YG provides different models and OEM support for overseas buyers.
What Is an Egg Carton Making Machine?
An egg carton making machine uses recycled paper as its main raw material. Waste paper is mixed with water to make pulp, then molded and dried into finished packaging.
The products are lightweight, stackable, recyclable, and protective. Besides egg trays and cartons, suitable molds can also produce fruit trays, bottle trays, and industrial packaging inserts.
For businesses with reliable waste paper supplies, the machine offers a practical way to produce recyclable packaging.

How an Egg Tray Manufacturing Machine Works
The production process normally includes four main stages.
Pulping
Waste paper and water are processed into pulp. Clean raw materials help maintain stable production.
Pulp Treatment
The pulp is adjusted to a suitable consistency before molding. This affects forming quality and product strength.
Forming
The pulp enters the molding system and takes the shape of the selected mold. Different molds can produce different packaging products.
Drying
Fresh trays contain moisture and must be dried before packaging and transportation. Drying capacity should be considered when planning the complete production line.

Egg Tray Maker Machine Applications
An egg tray maker machine is mainly used for egg packaging. It can also support other molded paper products.
Typical applications include:
• Egg trays and cartons
• Fruit trays
• Bottle protection
• Industrial inserts
• Custom paper packaging
For example, a small packaging business may start with a 1500 pcs/h model and expand to a higher-capacity machine as orders grow.
How to Select an Egg Carton Making Machine
Start with your required daily output. A larger machine is not always the better choice.
Then check your local supply of waste paper, factory space, electricity, and water.
YG models use 38–120 kW, while paper consumption ranges from 120–480 kg/h. These operating requirements should be considered before ordering.
Also consider future production growth and available drying capacity.
