Custom wire mesh trays are made from stainless steel 304, 316, or 316L. Sizes, hole size, wire diameter, and loading weight are available to your specifications for baking and drying materials.
Product Description
The custom metal mesh tray is specifically designed for high-temperature and high-humidity applications, such as baking, food drying, and medicinal material drying. It is manufactured using food-safe materials and processes, and offers high-temperature resistance, corrosion resistance, strong air permeability, and easy cleaning. The tray can replace traditional trays or wire grid racks to improve drying efficiency and enhance finished product quality. It supports personalized customization and is suitable for ovens, drying rooms, air dryers, and other equipment. It is an ideal solution for industries including food processing, medicinal material production, and agricultural and sideline product drying.
-
1. Food-grade safety, aligned with hygiene standards
Material specification:
304/316 stainless steel: complies with FDA (U.S.) food-contact material standards; high-temperature resistance (-50°C~800°C); acid and alkali corrosion resistance; no heavy metal precipitation.
Aluminum alloy + anodizing: lightweight design; the surface oxide film is rust-proof and stain-resistant, suitable for high-frequency baking applications.
Surface treatment: edge polishing without burrs; optional electrolytic polishing or food-grade spraying (white/silver) to ensure no sanitary dead corners and easy cleaning.
-
3. High-temperature and corrosion resistance for long-term durability
Stainless steel can withstand high-temperature and high-humidity environments such as ovens and steam drying, and will not deform or oxidize after long-term use.
The weight of the aluminum alloy mesh plate is reduced by 30% (reference value), making it suitable for manual handling and offering a service life of more than 5 years.
-
2. Efficient ventilation and uniform heating
Grid design:
The aperture density can be customized (recommended aperture size: 2–5 mm), balancing airflow performance and load-bearing requirements to help prevent food adhesion.
Multi-layer stacking structure (optional layer height: 10–30 cm), improving drying capacity and promoting even heat circulation.
Anti-stick treatment: optional Teflon (PTFE) non-stick coating or silicone anti-stick pad to reduce product release losses during baking.
-
4. Multi-functional adaptation and flexible expansion
Foldable frame design to save storage space.
Add handles, slides, and hooks to suit different equipment (such as oven shelves and drying-line conveyor belts).
Size customization: supports round, square, and rectangular configurations to match commercial ovens (e.g., 60×40 cm standard baking trays) or industrial dryer sizes.
Food baking
Baking and cooling of bread, biscuits, and pizza require ventilation and moisture-proof performance.
Fruit and vegetable drying
Dehydration of fruit slices and dried vegetables, with corrosion resistance and rust prevention.
Medicinal material drying
Low-temperature air drying of Chinese medicinal materials and herbal tea to help avoid metal contamination.
Meat air drying
Drying of sausages and jerky, with strong load-bearing capacity.

Custom Wire Mesh Tray for Baking and Drying FAQ
What is a custom wire mesh tray for baking and drying?
A custom wire mesh tray is a heat-resistant metal tray made from woven or welded wire mesh. It is designed for applications such as food baking, product drying, and material cooling. It provides excellent airflow and helps achieve even heat distribution.
What materials are used to manufacture the trays?
We commonly use stainless steel 304 or 316 for their high-temperature resistance, corrosion protection, and food safety. Other materials, such as galvanized steel or chrome-plated steel, may also be available depending on application requirements.
What sizes and mesh designs can be customized?
Tray size, wire diameter, mesh opening, frame thickness, tray depth, and corner shape can all be customized. We also offer options such as reinforced edges, stackable designs, or folding handles for easy use and storage.
Which industries use wire mesh trays for baking and drying?
These trays are widely used in food processing, commercial baking, pharmaceuticals, electronics drying, and laboratories, as well as heat treatment operations. They are a good choice where consistent ventilation and hygienic surfaces are required.
Are these trays reusable and easy to clean?
Yes. Stainless steel wire mesh trays are durable, reusable, and easy to clean—suitable for dishwasher use, autoclaves, or industrial sterilization. Non-stick coatings or electropolished surfaces are also available to simplify maintenance.
