FAQs
Are these containers safe to put in the dishwasher?
Yes, they are dishwasher safe, though we recommend using the top rack to avoid extreme heat exposure.
Can I use these in the oven?
No, these containers are not oven-safe and may melt if exposed to direct heat or high oven temperatures.
Are the lids interchangeable with other sizes?
These lids are specifically designed for the 946ml containers and may not provide a secure fit for other volume sizes.
What is the material composition?
They are made of food-grade, BPA-free plastic designed for repetitive food service use.
Can I freeze soups or liquids in these?
Yes, but leave about an inch of space at the top to allow for liquid expansion as it freezes.
Are these containers transparent?
The bases are black, while the lids are clear, allowing you to see the contents without removing the cover.
Troubleshooting
Lid is difficult to snap onto the base
Ensure both the rim of the container and the lid seal are free of food debris, as even small particles can interfere with the seal.
Lid does not feel airtight
Check for any warping of the lid edges. If the lid has been exposed to extreme heat, it may lose its shape; allow it to return to room temperature and try pressing again.
Container stained after storing tomato-based sauces
Soak the container in a solution of warm water and mild dish soap immediately after use to lift stains.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To begin, ensure the container and lid are clean before the first use. When closing the containers, press firmly around the edges of the lid until you feel it snap into place to ensure an airtight seal. For care, these containers are top-rack dishwasher safe, though hand-washing in warm, soapy water is recommended to extend the life of the sealing edges. Avoid using abrasive sponges that may scratch the surface. If microwaving, ensure the lid is slightly loosened to allow steam to vent, preventing pressure buildup inside the container.
