Clear Rectangular ToteJennyPerfect for items that need to be placed together for frequently used events.5
Good sizeMegumiWe use it to deliver small stuff for our business. It is good size. There were little bigger size before. If it is back again, we would like to purchase. 5
Good valueNinaI am in the midst of creating a sewing room and needed storage for different sizes of fabric and for sewing accessories. These fit the bill - reasonably priced, clear enough to see the contents, and available in an assortment of sizes. The only issue is that the top doesn't snap into place - it sits on top, instead. Now all I need is the Ivar shelf unit to store them all - and that is still out of stock.4
Overall great productJamieOverall these bins are fabulous. However two of them came broken in half from shipping and I've had to reorder more.4

Good size but cover doesn't stay in placeMichaelGood plastic container but the cover doesn't click and stay in place, so if it falls it will open and the contents will come out.3
Lasts longer than most marriagesSusanI've been buying the Samla containers/lids in various sizes for years! They have outlasted my marriage and my sanity. While these storage containers do not have clasp/locking lids do not fret nor be swayed from incorporating them into your storage arsenal! As sturdy as an 1800's coal miner and as reliable as Nonna's Sunday sauce. Lightweight, stackable within and on top of each other, the clearness helps to easily identify what your lack of object permance cannot! I'm talking to you, my fellow ADHD brethren. These Samla lids are designed to keep your items pest free (especially in you the five boroughs)!! Sleep well, my friends, knowing that your valuables (such as my vinyl collection, beauty products and legal docs) are safe from the sly infiltration of roach/ant/gross things and all that goes bump in the night. You're welcome. I'll be here all week.5

Perfect sizeAmyWe use the largest size for a perfect litter box for our big fussy cats. We cut a doorway on one of the long sides for easy access. Happy kitties, happy kitty parents.5
Nice practical and visible storage optionLailaI already have a couple of sizes of these boxes and I love them. Love that they are clear so I can see what is in them without taking of the top. Love the variety in sizes, I just bought the largest one for storage if and art pieces of mine and needed one box that could accommodate all sizes from tiny to large, and this fits the bill. Over time, I can see myself converting a lot of my daily storage needs to these. 5

Our take on plastic

Plastic is a key material for IKEA, and remains so going forward. It is strong, durable, lightweight and versatile. It is a main component in a large amount of our products and has a wide variety of applications from surface materials such as paint and foil, to screws and shelf pegs. There is a lot of valid concern regarding how plastic impacts the environment and at IKEA we take this very seriously. As part of our larger circular journey and transition from virgin fossil based material, we are working hard to change all plastic in our home furnishing products to plastic made from recycled and/or renewable raw materials.

Only recycled or renewable plastics

Plastic is most commonly derived from oil and gas, which are non-renewable fossil sources. These sources do not renew themselves and will eventually be depleted. Our ambition is that by 2030, all plastic used in our products will be based on renewable or recycled materials. Renewable plastic is made from materials such as vegetable oil, corn, wheat grain and sugar cane. Recycled plastic allows us to give a second life to non-biodegradable products such as PET bottles that would otherwise end up in landfill. Using recyclable sources also lessens our dependency on oil as a raw material. Currently more than 40% of our plastic products are based on recycled and renewable materials and our aim is to reach 100%. As we add products made from recycled and renewable materials to our offer, we hope to inspire other companies to do the same.

Phasing out single-use plastics

Single-use plastic items pollute ecosystems if not disposed of responsibly. As part of our commitment to people and the planet, all single-use plastic products from the global home furnishing range were phased out in 2020. This includes items such as plates, cups, and plastic straws offered in our restaurants, bistros, and cafes. These were replaced by disposables made from 100% renewable sources.

PET and PP our most commonly used plastics

Polythylene terephthalate (PET) and Polypropylene (PP) are durable, hygienic and shatter-resistant plastics. They absorb very little water and have good chemical resistance. Both PET and PP can be reused and recycled, which reduces waste and gives the product several lives through use and reuse. PET is the most recycled plastic in the world and can be used for many different purposes such as plastic bottles and containers for packaging food and beverages as well as for personal care products, pharmaceuticals and many other consumer products. At IKEA we mainly use recycled PET in boxes, filling material for textiles and kitchen front foil. PET is approved by health-agencies as safe to use for food and beverage. IKEA uses recycled PET that is post-consumer based, which means it is based on collected and sorted PET bottles.

Clean and safe

IKEA takes product safety very seriously and all products are tested and comply with the strictest possible laws and safety standards on all IKEA markets. Customers should always feel confident that products bought at IKEA are safe and healthy to use. IKEA wants to minimize or totally refrain from the use of chemicals and substances that can be harmful to people and the environment.

Together, we can do more

Our journey towards only using recycled or renewable plastic will take some time and require new ways of doing things, but we are determined to take responsibility and find new solutions. We want to give our customers the possibility to choose products made from more sustainable materials that can be recycled again one day. Together, we can make a big difference!

Function solution

Hard to get apart?

When SAMLA boxes are stacked on top of one another a vacuum of air forms, which can make it hard to separate them. Just push or pull the long sides of the box lightly as illustrated above. This lets in a little air and makes it easy to separate the boxes.
