FAQs

Are these containers BPA-free?

Yes, these containers are designed to be safe for food storage applications.

Can I put these in the dishwasher?

While often durable, hand washing is recommended to prolong the life of the plastic and prevent deformation.

Is the lid airtight?

The lids provide a secure fit suitable for food storage, but they are not 100% leak-proof for liquid transport.

Can these be used in a conventional oven?

No, these containers are specifically designed for microwave use only and should never be placed in a conventional oven.

What is the exact capacity of these containers?

These containers have a volume capacity of 650ml.

Can I stack them when full?

Yes, the rectangular, flat-topped design makes them excellent for stable, space-saving stacking.

Troubleshooting

Lid is difficult to snap on

Ensure the container rim is clean and free of food debris; verify the lid is correctly aligned before applying firm, even pressure.

Container warped in the microwave

Reduce the microwave power setting or shorten the heating time; ensure the lid is not creating a vacuum seal during heating.

Staining from tomato or oil-based sauces

Rinse the container with cold water immediately after use to prevent pigments from setting into the plastic.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To ensure the longevity of your containers, follow these usage guidelines:

  1. Microwave Use: Always place the container on a microwave-safe plate and ensure the lid is not sealed tight; either place it loosely on top or remove it entirely to allow steam to escape.
  2. Freezing: Allow hot food to cool to room temperature before placing the container in the freezer to prevent thermal shock and potential cracking.
  3. Cleaning: While the containers are generally robust, hand washing with mild detergent is recommended to prevent warping or micro-scratches that can occur in high-heat commercial dishwashers.
  4. Storage: Store containers in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight when not in use.
