FAQs

Are the LocknLock Eco Ovenglass containers truly airtight?

Yes, the four-sided locking mechanism is designed to create a secure, airtight, and water-tight seal to prevent spills and maintain food freshness.

Can I cook in these containers?

Yes, the borosilicate glass dish is oven-safe up to 400°C. However, the lids should not be placed in the oven.

How should I clean the lids?

It is recommended to wash the lids by hand or on the top rack of your dishwasher to help maintain their integrity, as they are made from recycled plastic.

Are these containers safe for children's meals?

Yes, the containers are made from BPA-free borosilicate glass and recycled plastic lids, making them a safe option for storing and reheating meals.

What does 'Eco' in Eco Ovenglass refer to?

The 'Eco' designation refers to the use of recycled materials, specifically the lids made from leftover production plastic, contributing to waste reduction.

Can I use the lid in the microwave?

While the glass is microwave-safe, it's best to use the lid loosely or vent it, or remove it entirely during microwave reheating to allow steam to escape safely. Check specific lid instructions if available.

What is borosilicate glass?

Borosilicate glass is a type of glass known for its exceptional durability and resistance to thermal shock, making it shatterproof and ideal for use in ovens and freezers.

Troubleshooting

Lid is difficult to close

Ensure there is no food residue around the rim or seal. Align the lid squarely on the container before pressing down the locking tabs.

Container has a faint odor after storing food

Wash thoroughly with warm, soapy water. For stubborn odors, try soaking the glass container with a baking soda and water paste for a few hours before washing.

Condensation inside the container

This is normal when storing warm food that cools down. For maximum freshness, allow food to cool slightly before sealing and refrigerating.

Lid color does not match other containers

This is expected. The lids are made from recycled production plastic, and colors vary as no two pieces are the same.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Durable and shatterproof borosilicate glass construction.
  • Environmentally friendly with recycled plastic lids.
  • Versatile for oven, microwave, freezer, and dishwasher use.
  • Secure airtight and watertight seal prevents leaks.
  • High oven temperature resistance for convenient cooking.

Cons

  • Lid colors are variable due to recycled materials.
  • Glass containers can be heavy.
  • Only the glass dish is oven-safe; lids should not be placed in the oven.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup: The containers are ready to use immediately. Ensure the lid's silicone seal is properly seated for optimal airtightness.

Compatibility:

  • Oven: The glass dish is safe up to 400°C. Do not place the lid in the oven.
  • Microwave: Safe for reheating food. Do not microwave with the lid on unless specifically designed for venting (check lid markings).
  • Freezer: Safe for storing food.
  • Dishwasher: Top-rack recommended for lids to preserve material integrity; glass dishes are dishwasher safe.

Care:

  • Wash lids by hand or on the top rack of the dishwasher. Prolonged high heat on lower racks may affect the recycled plastic over time.
  • Glass dishes can be washed in any part of the dishwasher or by hand.
  • Avoid abrasive cleaners or scouring pads on both glass and lids to prevent scratching.
  • Ensure the container and lid are completely dry before storing to prevent mold or mildew.
