What moves the price
For corrugated tray base, the drivers are diameter, material, compatibility, seal type, venting, color, voltage, seal diameter — the same item can land at either end of the band depending on how those are specified.
Published wholesale tray pricing shows corrugated trays and custom corrugated boxes moving down from about the $1-$2 range at low hundreds of units to well under $1 at higher volumes, with price primarily driven by board grade/thickness, tray dimensions, print coverage, and whether the tray is stock or custom-made. For a mid-range custom-printed tray base, the most realistic supplier routes are US wholesale corrugated converters and packaging brokers using factory-direct production; commodity stock trays from distributors are usually faster but less representative of custom B2B pricing. Higher-volume pricing is typically landed-equivalent from converter quotes rather than public catalog prices, so the upper tiers are best treated as market-anchored estimates from the same supplier type rather than fixed list prices.
