Custom 600×400 mm 24-Cavity Mini Pizza Baking Pan for Italian Client

A client from Italy — a leader in puff pastry semi-finished products and frozen goods — approached us with a requirement for commercial baking pans. The specification was clear: a 600×400 mm tray with 24 medium-sized cavities, used for baking mini pizzas.

During the initial review, we identified a problem.
With a standard one-piece stamped design, this tray size could only fit 20 cavities, which would directly limit the client’s production capacity.

Throughout the process, our sales manager Aili maintained close and consistent communication with the client, coordinating efficiently between the client and our engineering team to ensure every detail was clearly understood and quickly aligned.

Instead of following the conventional approach, we reworked the design from the client’s perspective.
Our engineers proposed removing the typical rolled rim structure and switching to a folded-flat edge design. This adjustment allowed us to fit all 24 cavities within the same outer dimensions, without compromising usability.

We also suggested increasing the material thickness from 0.8 mm to 1.0 mm, improving durability and reducing the risk of deformation under frequent use.

These changes not only solved the capacity issue, but also simplified the structure, helping reduce tooling costs.

The client was satisfied with the samples, and mass production is now underway.

For us, custom manufacturing is not just about following a drawing — it’s about clear communication, practical thinking, and finding better solutions when it matters.
