Wooden Serving Trays & Platters: The Perfect Addition to Your Home and Business

1. Why Choose Our Wholesale Wooden Serving Trays?

In the world of home decor and hospitality, plastic is out, and nature is in. Wooden Serving Trays are no longer just functional items for carrying drinks; they are essential decor elements for coffee tables, ottomans, and kitchen islands. For retailers and F&B brands, stocking high-quality wooden platters offers a high-margin product that appeals to eco-conscious consumers.

As a premier Wooden Serving Tray Manufacturer in China, Xiamen Chic Homeware helps you capitalize on this trend. We don’t just cut wood; we engineer durable, food-safe, and aesthetically stunning serving solutions tailored for the global market.

2. Material Guide: Acacia vs. Bamboo vs. Walnut

Choosing the right wood is crucial for your target market. Here is a breakdown of the materials we offer:

• Acacia Wood (Best Seller): Known for its high density and distinctive grain patterns. It ranges from rich dark browns to golden honey tones. It is naturally water-resistant and antimicrobial, making it the top choice for Cheese Boards and Charcuterie Platters.

• Bamboo (Eco-Friendly): Technically a grass, bamboo is harder than maple and incredibly sustainable. It offers a uniform, clean blonde look. Our Bamboo Serving Trays are lightweight, affordable, and perfect for high-volume retail or promotional gift sets.

• Rubberwood & Pine: Excellent budget-friendly options. While softer, they are perfect for painted finishes or rustic “farmhouse” style trays where a distressed look is desired.

3. Factory Insights: How We Ensure Quality

Importing wooden products can be risky if the manufacturer doesn’t understand wood science. Here is how we prevent common issues like warping and cracking:

• Moisture Content Control: We strictly dry our lumber to 8-12% moisture content before production. This ensures the tray stays flat even when shipped from humid China to dry climates like Arizona or Northern Europe.

• Food-Safe Finishes: Safety is non-negotiable. All our serving trays are finished with FDA and LFGB-compliant oils, waxes, or varnishes. Whether it’s a matte oil finish for a natural feel or a high-gloss lacquer for easy cleaning, we ensure it’s safe for direct food contact.

• Precision Sanding: A rough tray feels cheap. We employ a multi-step sanding process, finishing with fine-grit sandpaper to ensure every handle, corner, and surface is silky smooth to the touch.

4. Versatile Designs for Every Occasion

Our catalog features diverse structures to meet different buyer needs:

• The Ottoman Tray: Large, rectangular trays with high sides and sturdy cutout handles. Built to hold heavy coffee pots or serve breakfast in bed.

• The Party Platter: Featuring our innovative Divided Bamboo Trays with Clear Lids. These are game-changers for outdoor catering, picnics, or keeping snacks fresh and pest-free.

• Seasonal Shapes: From Christmas tree-shaped dishes to heart-shaped Valentine’s platters, we have the molds ready to boost your Q4 sales.
