Product Information
Full details
The Araven 9000ml food storage container is designed for commercial kitchens and busy home chefs who need to maintain ingredient quality while maximizing storage space. This durable, translucent container excels at preserving food freshness, taste, and texture, effectively reducing waste through its tight-fitting, secure lid. While the container is highly efficient for organization, its larger 9-liter footprint means it is best suited for bulk storage rather than small-portion meal prep.

FAQs
Is this container dishwasher safe?
Yes, it is designed for commercial use and can be cleaned in standard commercial dishwashers.
Can I store hot foods in this container?
While the plastic is robust, it is recommended to let food cool to room temperature before sealing with the lid to avoid creating a vacuum effect.
Are these BPA free?
Araven containers are manufactured to professional food-safe standards; please verify the specific markings on the container base for material certifications.
Can this be used in a freezer?
Yes, these containers are designed to be freezer-safe, making them ideal for bulk ingredient storage in cold environments.
Does the lid provide an airtight seal?
The lid is designed to be a tight-fitting, secure seal to keep contents fresh, though it is not classified as a vacuum-sealed or watertight container.
Are there other sizes available?
Yes, there is a larger 14000ml sibling model (MPN 91185) available if you need to store higher volumes.
Troubleshooting
Lid feels loose or does not snap on securely
Ensure the rim of the container is clean and free of food debris, which can prevent the lid from seating properly.
Container is difficult to separate after nesting
Avoid forcing them apart; gently rock the top container side-to-side to break the air seal before pulling upwards.
Stains or lingering food odors
Soak the container in a solution of warm water and baking soda, then scrub lightly with a soft brush to neutralize odors.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure the longevity of your Araven container, follow these guidelines:
- Setup: Before first use, wash the container and lid with warm, soapy water and a non-abrasive cloth to remove any manufacturing residue.
- Storage: When stacking full containers, ensure the lid is fully snapped into place to distribute the weight evenly and prevent slipping.
- Cleaning: While the material is durable, it is recommended to avoid using harsh steel wool or abrasive scouring pads, which can scratch the plastic and harbor bacteria.
- Handling: Always use both handles when carrying a full 9-liter container to ensure stability and reduce the risk of accidental drops.
