About this mold

The crate lid completes the fruit packaging: it protects the fruit from dust and knocks, lets full crates be stacked without pressing on the fruit, and gives export shipments and long-distance loads a professional look.

The key point in a lid mold is an exact fit with the crate rim: the lid must snap on easily, stay firmly in place and not come off in transport. That is why we measure and design the lid mold from your own crate (or the crate mold we built for you). The test video of a crate lid mold made in our workshop is further down the page.

The lid can be designed with vent holes, a label area or a raised logo. If you also need the crate mold, see the fruit crate molds and the kiwi crate mold.

Key features

Measured from your crate

The lid edge is matched exactly to the crate rim, so it is neither loose nor hard to put on.

Safe stacking

The lid transfers the load of the crate above to the rim of the crate below, not to the fruit.

Ventilation

Vent holes or slots for fruit kept in cold storage.

Your brand on the lid

Your logo or brand name is engraved on the lid surface — ideal for export packaging.

Frequently asked questions

Can you make a lid for a crate I bought elsewhere?
Yes. Bring or send a sample crate; its rim is measured and the lid is designed to fit it exactly.
What is a crate lid for?
It protects the fruit from knocks and dirt, makes stacking full crates safe, and gives export packaging a more professional look.
How much does a crate lid mold cost?
It depends on the lid’s dimensions and design; it is usually simpler than the crate mold itself. Contact us for an estimate.
