Choosing a container

Material, stacking and temperature

Start with the material that suits your contents, then check the stacking requirement and the temperature tolerance printed in each product description. Rigid plastic suits most chilled and ambient food storage, while paperboard fits dry goods and light takeaway. Aluminium is the choice where closure security and heat tolerance matter most.

Before ordering, confirm the volume capacity and lid fit for your container size. Match lids to the exact container listed, and check stacking ratings if you plan to store full units on top of one another.
