A large pad under a small pack of food looks wrong, and it wastes material you don’t need. Small trays and single-portion packs need a pad sized to match, not a leftover cut from something bigger.
The Socker Pad 65 × 135 is built for exactly that. Dubai Dry Ice supplies this size for small trays, single portions, and compact retail packs, where a full-size pad would be too much.

Not every pack needs a large pad. A single steak, a small fillet, or a compact sushi or deli tray only releases a small amount of liquid, and a pad built for a bigger tray just adds bulk and cost without doing anything extra.
Using the right size from the start keeps packaging looking neat, keeps costs in check, and still does the job of keeping the pack dry underneath.
A socker pad at this size sits under single-portion meat, small seafood cuts, or compact deli items, pulling liquid away so the pack looks clean right up until it’s opened. It works the same way as a larger pad, just scaled to fit trays that don’t need the extra size.
It’s worth being clear on what this product does and doesn’t do. An instant cold pack or a disposable ice pack works by actively cooling a package, usually through a chemical reaction or frozen gel. A socker pad doesn’t cool anything. It absorbs liquid that’s already there, keeping the tray dry and presentable. Businesses that need both cooling and dryness often use a cold pack and a socker pad together, since they solve two different problems.
At 65 × 135, this pad matches the base of most small retail trays without hanging over the edges or leaving gaps. It’s sized for single portions and small multi-packs specifically, not a scaled-down version of a bigger pad that happens to be smaller.
Butchers and delis packing single-portion cuts for retail shelves. Sushi and seafood counters using small trays for individual servings. Convenience stores and small grocers stocking pre-packed items in compact trays. Any food business where the standard 280 × 385 pad is simply too big for what’s being packed.
This pad is made the same way as our larger sizes, just cut down for smaller packaging. Ordering the 65 × 135 size doesn’t mean a lower grade product, just a size that actually fits what you’re packing.
Yes, for how much liquid a single portion or small pack normally gives off. It's made to match that amount, not cut smaller than it should be.
Yes. A lot of businesses do this — the small size for single packs, the larger one for bigger trays.
No. It soaks up liquid, it doesn't cool anything. If you need cooling too, ask our team about adding a cold pack alongside it.
No. It works under any small tray or pack that gives off liquid, deli and prepared foods included.
