Why IKEA metal trays stand out

At IKEA, our mission has always been to create a better everyday life for the many people. That’s why each of our metal trays is designed with a purpose—and a promise: to be affordable, stylish, and functional.

Here’s why our metal trays make a standout choice:

Design rooted in simplicity and function

Our Scandinavian design heritage means that we focus on clean lines, purposeful details, and a timeless aesthetic. A metal tray should serve your needs without fuss—just good design doing its job.

Durable and long-lasting

Crafted from sturdy steel or aluminum, our trays are built to withstand daily use. The materials are chosen for their strength, lightness, and ability to resist wear over time. Whether you're using them indoors or outdoors, they hold up beautifully.

Sustainable materials

We’re always looking for better ways to care for the planet. Many of our trays are made from recyclable metal or feature powder-coated finishes that are more environmentally friendly than traditional alternatives.

Affordable design for all

We believe good design should be accessible. That’s why our metal trays are priced fairly—without cutting corners on quality. Because everyone deserves a beautiful and organized home.

Different ways to use metal trays at home

One of the joys of owning an IKEA metal tray is discovering just how many ways it can work for you. Here are some of our favorite ideas for making the most of this multifunctional accessory:

As a serving tray

Use it to carry drinks, snacks, or a full breakfast to bed. The strong build and raised edges ensure easy, spill-free transport.

As a catch-all tray

Place it on your entryway table to hold keys, wallets, and mail. It instantly tidies up loose items and adds a stylish layer to your decor.

As a desk organizer

At your home office or study area, a tray keeps your supplies—pens, clips, notepads—contained and within reach, making your workspace feel more intentional.

As a decorative base

Layer your favorite candles, small plants, or a stack of books on a tray to create a simple yet eye-catching display.

In the kitchen or bathroom

Use one to organize your spice jars or oils, or to hold hand soaps and skincare products—bringing both order and style to busy areas of the home.

Care tips to keep them looking new

Our trays are designed to be low-maintenance, but with a few simple care habits, you can keep them looking their best for years to come.

• Wipe clean regularly: Use a soft damp cloth and mild detergent to remove spills or dust.
• Avoid harsh abrasives: Scouring pads or harsh chemicals can damage the finish.
• Dry thoroughly: After cleaning, wipe dry to prevent any moisture marks or rust (especially in humid environments).
• Store carefully: Stackable designs make storage easy, but place a cloth between trays if you want to prevent scratches on the surface.

By treating your tray with a little care, it’ll continue to serve—and shine—for a long time.

FAQs for Metal Trays

Are IKEA metal trays food-safe?

Yes, all our metal trays intended for serving or eating meet international safety standards and are food-safe. We recommend checking the product description to confirm suitability for direct food contact, as some trays are designed purely for decorative or organizational use.

Can I use these trays for serving hot items?

Absolutely. Our metal trays are designed to handle typical household use, including hot drinks, meals, or serving dishes. However, if the tray doesn’t have insulated handles or a heat-resistant base, it’s best to use trivets for very hot pots and pans to protect the tray's finish.

Do they come in different finishes or colors?

Yes! At IKEA, we offer metal trays in a range of finishes—from matte black and brushed steel to colorful powder-coated styles. Some designs also feature printed patterns or textured surfaces, so there’s something to suit every taste and setting.

Are the trays stackable for easy storage?

Most of our metal trays have a flat base and low edge design, making them easy to stack and store neatly when not in use. For added protection, you can place a soft cloth between stacked trays to avoid surface scratches.

How should I clean and maintain my metal tray?

We recommend wiping the tray with a damp cloth and mild detergent. Avoid soaking metal trays in water for extended periods or putting them in the dishwasher unless specified. Always dry thoroughly after cleaning to prevent rust or water spots.

Can I use IKEA metal trays outdoors?

Yes, many of our trays are suitable for both indoor and outdoor use. Metal trays with powder-coated finishes are especially good for outdoor settings because they resist corrosion better. Just remember to bring them inside when not in use to prolong their lifespan.

Do IKEA trays work as décor items?

Definitely! Many of our customers use metal trays as a stylish base for candles, flower vases, or personal collections. They’re a simple way to pull together a cohesive look on a coffee table, shelf, or sideboard.
