Round Kraft Bowls Ireland: 750–1300ml Sizes & Lids Buying Guide

Poke counters in Dublin, noodle lunch spots in Cork, salad bars in Galway — Irish kitchens that sell by the bowl need a round kraft format that stacks, seals and travels. Size is the first decision: too small and toppings spill; too large and food looks sparse. The lid family has to match the bowl code, or Friday delivery bags leak.

This guide covers round kraft bowls in Ireland as plain catering stock — PE kraft bowls in 750ml (KB3), 900ml and 1300ml (KB4), matching PET lids, case packs, and how PrintNPack's Round Kraft Bowls range works with tiered pricing and delivery from Ashbourne.

Why Irish takeaways buy plain kraft bowls by the case

Plain kraft bowls are warehouse stock: order by the case, no print proof, no brand MOQ. That matters when a Cork poke shop burns through 900ml bowls at lunch or an Ashbourne café needs sealed 750ml sides before a weekend rush. Branding can sit on the carrier or napkin — the bowl only has to hold food, take a lid, and survive the bag.

PrintNPack holds PE kraft bowls alongside dedicated PET lids in Round Kraft Bowls. Orders ship nationwide; local buyers can collect from Ashbourne, Co. Meath. For a wider view of bulk catering lines, see our plain packaging wholesale Ireland guide. Hot broth in a lidded cup is a different line — see the soup containers Ireland guide for 8–32oz Spiritpak cups.

Round kraft bowl sizes at a glance

Start with the portion your menu sells most — often 900ml for a full lunch bowl, 750ml for lighter salads or kids, and 1300ml for loaded or sharing portions — then match the lid code. Use the table below, then confirm live case tiers on each product page.

750ml PE kraft bowls (KB3) and matching PET lids

The smaller everyday line is the 750ml Kraft Bowl PE (KB3), packed 6 × 50 per case (300 bowls). It suits lighter poke sides, grain bowls and smaller salads where 900ml would leave empty space. Matching PET lids for 750ml bowls (KB3) pack the same 6 × 50 per case so you can buy lids ahead of bowls when delivery is the leak risk.

Dublin and Galway counters often keep 750ml as standing stock for sides, then step up to KB4 for full meals. Do not put a KB4 lid on a KB3 bowl — the codes are separate lid families. Staff guessing mid-service is how bags stain on the way home.

900ml and 1300ml PE kraft bowls (KB4) — shared lid

The workhorse lunch size is the 900ml Kraft Bowl PE (KB4), also packed 6 × 50 per case. Cork noodle spots and Dublin salad bars typically run this as the default. For loaded or sharing portions, step up to the 1300ml Kraft Bowl PE (KB4) — same case pack, same lid family.

Both KB4 bowls share one PET lid case for 900 & 1300ml bowls (KB4) at 6 × 50 per case. That keeps lid stock simpler than clear portion pots: one KB4 lid SKU covers both larger bowls, while KB3 stays on its own 750ml lid.

GO 750ml (KB1) when you need the rPET lid line

Round Kraft Bowls also lists a 750ml PE kraft bowl GO (KB1) packed 6 × 50 per case, with a matching rPET lid for 750ml (KB1) at the same pack. Use this only when your kitchen is already on the GO lid family — it is not interchangeable with the KB3 PET lid. Most new buyers start on KB3 750ml plus KB4 900/1300ml and keep lid SKUs to two clear PET cases.

Case packs, MOQ and how pricing works

Core PE kraft bowls and their PET lids pack 6 × 50 per case (300 units). All use four-tier volume pricing — more cases lower the price per case. There is no custom-print MOQ on these plain lines.

Always check the live tier table on each product in Round Kraft Bowls. We do not reprint one-off unit rates here because case tiering is how wholesale pricing works. A single-site takeaway often starts on 1–3 cases of 900ml plus the shared KB4 lid; multi-site groups consolidate 750ml, 900ml and lids into higher tiers on one Ashbourne order.

Kraft bowls vs soup cups, salad tubs and bioboxes

Round kraft bowls suit cold or warm bowl meals that need a wide open top for toppings. Hot soup with a sip lid belongs in soup containers. Hinged clear salad packs are covered in the rPET hinged salad containers Ireland guide. Fold-flat kraft takeaway boxes sit in Biobox containers Ireland.

Many Irish kitchens stock kraft bowls for poke and noodles, then keep soup cups and hinged salad tubs for other menu lines — plain stock, mixed on one Ashbourne dispatch.

What to order alongside kraft bowls

• Wooden cutlery — forks and spoons for bowl meals
• Portion pots for dressings and sauces beside the bowl
• Kraft carriers when two bowls leave in one bag
• Cold cups for soft drinks with lunch bowls
• Napkins and SOS grab bags from plain packaging for sealed bowl deliveries

Pairing bowls, lids and cutlery on one dispatch keeps Dublin and nationwide kitchens stocked before weekend peaks.
