Is the material BPA free?

Troubleshooting

Lid feels difficult to snap on

Ensure the container rim is completely clean of any food debris; even small particles can prevent an airtight seal.

Clip is loose or falls out

Check that the clip is oriented correctly and pushed fully into the locking channel until it clicks into place.

Persistent stains on the container walls

Soak the container in a solution of warm water and a small amount of baking soda to lift stubborn food pigments.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Durable construction suitable for high-frequency professional use
  • Color-coded clips facilitate organized kitchen inventory management
  • Extremely versatile temperature resistance for both blast freezing and hot holding
  • Permanent label system eliminates the need for messy tape or stickers

Cons

  • Height of 150mm requires specific clearance in standard domestic refrigerators
  • Rigid design does not collapse for storage when not in use
  • Requires proper clip management to ensure the airtight seal remains effective

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To set up the container, ensure the airtight lid is pressed firmly onto the container body until you feel the seal engage. Insert the chosen colored clip into the designated slot on the lid to identify the contents or date.

Compatibility: This container fits standard Gastronorm rack systems.

Care Instructions: The unit is dishwasher safe. Use a mild detergent and avoid abrasive scouring pads, which could scratch the plastic surface and harbor bacteria. Ensure the integrated label is wiped clean immediately after use to prevent staining from high-pigment ingredients like tomato sauce or turmeric.
