SNI Certification Guide for Partitioned Food Containers

In the modern era, the use of compartmentalized food containers has become increasingly popular, especially for work lunches, school meals, and culinary businesses. However, to ensure these products are safe and meet standards, manufacturers must understand the Indonesian National Standard (SNI) as the primary guideline before marketing them. This is regulated in accordance with SNI 9369:2025, “Stainless Steel Food Trays for Food,” which is a new standard developed and established by the Indonesian National Standards Agency (BSN) in 2025.

This standard was developed for the following purposes:

To keep pace with technological advancements;
To ensure safety, health, safety, and environmental protection for consumers regarding food tray products;
To serve as an industry reference for producing food trays so that the products produced comply with the standard.

This SNI was developed by Technical Committee 77-02, Downstream Metal Products. This standard was discussed at technical meetings and finally agreed upon at a consensus meeting in Jakarta and online on April 11, 2025, attended by relevant stakeholders, including representatives from manufacturers, consumers, the government, associations, universities, experts, testing laboratories, and other relevant government agencies. This standard underwent a public consultation period from May 5, 2025, to May 19, 2025, with the final result approved as an SNI.
