Food storage & organising

Organisation is the key to a pleasant and efficient kitchen. Stackable containers with lids, drawer inserts, and worktop organisers help you utilize every inch efficiently. With a strategic arrangement of different food items, you’ll always find what you need while keeping your work surface clutter free.

What you see is what you get

Since we often eat what we see, transparent food containers make us more likely to eat our leftovers before they go bad. The IKEA 365+ containers are also light, tight, and ready to bring your homemade lunch to work, which means you can save money and waste less food.

Prepare the perfect picnic with practical food containers

Now’s the time to enjoy tasty meals in the great outdoors – even if it’s just your local park! Lightweight and stackable food containers and durable plastic drink bottles are essential for a pleasant picnic experience. A cooling bag with compartments keeps the food fresh and organised until it’s time to eat.

 What are the best containers for keeping food fresh longer?

Airtight food containers made from BPA-free plastic or glass help lock in freshness. Look for leak-proof lids and vacuum-seal options. Clear containers also let you easily monitor contents.

Can I use food storage containers in the microwave and freezer?

Yes, many plastic and glass containers are both microwave- and freezer-safe. Check product labels for temperature tolerance. Always remove or loosen lids before reheating.

 How do I organize a small kitchen using food storage solutions?

Stackable containers, drawer organizers, and shelf baskets save space. Use labeled jars for dry goods and rotating trays for pantry items. Transparent storage helps reduce food waste.

Are glass food containers better than plastic ones?

Glass containers are durable, stain-resistant, and don’t retain odors. They’re ideal for reheating and storing oily or acidic foods. Plastic containers are lightweight and great for travel.

 What’s the safest way to store leftovers?

Cool food to room temperature before sealing in an airtight container. Store in the fridge within 2 hours of cooking. Label containers with the date to track freshness.
