Product Information

Full details

The Mepal Cirqula Rectangular Food Container 3-piece set is an ideal solution for home cooks and meal-preppers looking to maximize their kitchen organization. By offering three versatile capacities (500ml, 1000ml, and 2000ml), these containers provide a seamless way to store, freeze, and reheat meals while saving valuable shelf space through their stackable, nesting design. While these containers are incredibly durable and BPA-free, users should be mindful that they are intended for reheating rather than extended cooking inside a microwave.

FAQs

Are these containers safe for the dishwasher?

Yes, the containers and lids are dishwasher safe. For best results, place them on the top rack.

Can I use these in the oven?

No, these containers are not suitable for use in conventional or convection ovens.

What does BPA-free mean?

It means the plastic used in these containers does not contain Bisphenol A, a chemical often found in some plastics that may leach into food.

Do the lids seal tightly enough for liquids?

The lids are designed to be airtight, making them suitable for storing soups and sauces, provided the container is kept upright.

Can I nest different size containers?

Yes, the Cirqula series is designed to nest perfectly within each other when not in use to maximize cupboard space.

Are replacement lids available?

For information on spare parts or specific replacements, please contact Mepal customer support directly.

Troubleshooting

Lid feels difficult to secure

Ensure the container rim is clean and free of food debris, then press down firmly on the center of the lid.

Staining from tomato-based sauces

Clean promptly with warm soapy water. For stubborn stains, a paste of baking soda and water can be applied before rinsing.

Lid is stuck after microwave use

Allow the container to cool completely before attempting to open; never force the lid while hot to avoid distortion.

Pros and Cons

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Getting started with your Mepal Cirqula containers is straightforward. Before first use, wash all components with warm, soapy water to remove any manufacturing residue. When stacking the containers for storage, ensure they are completely dry to prevent moisture buildup inside the nested bowls. To maintain the longevity of the lid seals, avoid using abrasive sponges or scouring pads when cleaning. When moving containers from the freezer to the microwave, allow for a brief thawing period if possible, though the material is designed to handle thermal transitions efficiently.
