Extended Product Information

FAQs

Are these containers truly leak-proof?

The containers feature a PE inner coating designed to be grease and leak-resistant, making them highly effective for most liquid and semi-liquid foods. However, extreme conditions or rough handling could potentially lead to leaks.

Can I reuse these containers?

These containers are designed for single use. While they are sturdy, repeated washing and use may compromise their integrity and lining.

Are the lids included with the containers?

Yes, the disposable paper soup cups come with matching vented lids.

What is the capacity of these containers?

Each container has a capacity of 12 fluid ounces.

Are these containers safe for packing very hot liquids like boiling soup?

Yes, they are designed for hot foods. However, avoid overfilling and handle with care, as the exterior may become hot. The vented lid helps manage steam.

Can I put these in the dishwasher?

No, these containers are disposable and not intended for dishwashers. They are safe for microwave and freezer use.

What are the environmental benefits of these cups?

They are made from environmentally friendly food-grade kraft paper, offering a more sustainable option compared to plastic containers. They are intended for single use and should be disposed of properly after use.

Troubleshooting

Container feels weak or soggy

Ensure the container is not overfilled with extremely hot or liquid-heavy foods for extended periods. Check that the PE coating is intact.

Lid is difficult to secure

Ensure the rim of the container is clean and free of food debris. Press down evenly around the entire circumference of the lid.

Leaking from the sides

Verify that the container was not compromised during filling or transport. Check for any punctures or tears in the kraft paper. Ensure the food is not exceeding the maximum fill line.

Food is too cold after microwaving

Ensure the microwave wattage is appropriate and cooking times are sufficient. Stir food midway through reheating. Be aware that paper containers may not retain heat as effectively as ceramic bowls.
