FAQs

Is this container truly airtight?

This TATAY food storage container is designed for general food storage and offers a good seal, but it is not hermetically airtight. It's ideal for fridge and freezer storage but may not be suitable for transporting liquids without risk of minor leaks.

Can I use this container in the freezer?

Yes, the container is freezer-safe and designed to withstand temperatures down to -40°C. Ensure the lid is securely fastened, but be aware that liquids expand when frozen, so do not overfill.

How do I clean the container?

You can clean the container by hand with warm, soapy water or place it in the top rack of your dishwasher. Avoid abrasive cleaners.

What are the exact dimensions of the 500ml container?

The dimensions of this 500ml container are 12 cm in length, 12 cm in width, and 6.6 cm in height.

Is the red color fade-resistant?

While designed for durability, prolonged exposure to strong sunlight or harsh dishwashing cycles could potentially affect the vibrancy of the color over time. Storing it away from direct light when not in use is recommended.

Can I reheat food in this container?

Yes, the container is microwave-safe. However, always remove the lid or leave it slightly ajar to allow steam to escape. Avoid using it for extended high-heat cooking cycles.

What other colors or sizes are available?

TATAY offers this food storage container in various colors, including White and Blue, and in different capacities such as 1000ml.

Troubleshooting

Container lid doesn't seal tightly.

Ensure the rim of the container and the lid are clean and dry. Press down firmly around the edges to create a seal. This model's lid is designed for general storage and is not typically airtight.

Plastic has become discolored after microwave use.

Microwave use with certain foods, especially tomato-based or brightly colored sauces, can cause staining. This is cosmetic and does not affect the safety or functionality of the container. Try cleaning with a paste of baking soda and water, or soak briefly in a mild bleach solution (if manufacturer allows) for stubborn stains.

Container warped after dishwasher use.

Ensure the container is placed on the top rack of the dishwasher, away from heating elements. High heat can cause warping. For best results, hand washing is recommended for extending the life of the container.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup: This container requires no assembly. Simply remove any packaging and wash before first use.

Compatibility: The TATAY 500ml container is compatible with:

  • Dishwashers (top rack recommended for longevity)
  • Refrigerators
  • Freezers (ensure lid is secure but allow for expansion if freezing liquids)
  • Microwaves (use without lid or with lid loosely placed to vent steam)

Care: Hand wash with mild soap and water or place in the dishwasher. Avoid abrasive cleaning materials that could scratch the plastic. Ensure the container is dry before storing to prevent moisture build-up. For microwave use, always ensure the lid is not sealed tightly to allow steam to escape, preventing pressure build-up.
