What are the advantages of storage containers?
Storage containers are designed to preserve your food and ingredients for longer. This is because airtight containers ensure longer freshness and protect the contents from moisture, insects and dust. What's more, the containers and fresh food boxes allow you to organise your supplies clearly. As the storage containers also free up space, you can utilise your kitchen cabinets more efficiently. Compared to disposable packaging such as aluminium foil or plastic bags, the boxes are more environmentally friendly as you save a lot of waste.

What material is recommended for storage containers?
Storage containers are usually made of transparent glass or plastic. This allows you to see what's inside them straight away. Some lids are made from bamboo, a sustainable natural product. Metal tea caddies are odourless and ensure that the flavours are preserved. Each material has its own advantages: glass containers can be heated and cleaned in the dishwasher. Plastic containers are a cheaper alternative and are also suitable for the dishwasher. Always take a look at our care tips as a precaution: Some lids and containers are better washed by hand.
