SILICONE LUNCHWARE
What are the lunch boxes made from?
Our lunchware is made from BPA-free, food-safe silicone. Soft, durable and made for everyday use.
Are they oven or air fryer safe?
Yes. Our silicone is heat safe up to 220°C, so you can use it in the oven or air fryer.
Can I put them in the freezer?
Yes! They’re great for freezing lunches, leftovers or prepped meals. If you’re freezing liquids, leave a bit of room at the top as liquids expand when frozen.
Can I clean them in the dishwasher?
Absolutely. They’re dishwasher safe - we like the top rack best! You can also wash them with warm soapy water. After washing, let everything air dry completely before putting away.
Are the compartments leakproof?
Our lunch box lids are fully leakproof, so you don’t need to worry about spills in your bag. However, the compartments inside aren’t sealed from each other, so liquids can move between sections. They’re perfect for keeping dry foods separate, but for soups or really saucy dishes, we recommend using a separate container.
Are they microwave safe?
Yes, our silicone lunchware can go in the microwave for reheating.
How durable is silicone lunchware?
Silicone is flexible, tough, and designed to withstand daily use. It resists breaking, cracking or degrading under normal use conditions, making it ideal for school, work, travel, and everyday life.
BENTO BOX
Is the seal removable?
The silicone seal in both our Lunch and Snack Bento Boxes can be removed for hand cleaning as it is not dishwasher safe. Once completely dried out, the seal can easily be manipulated back into the recess of the lid.
Are they microwave safe?
We do not recommend putting stainless steel in the microwave for safety concerns. However, our bento boxes are safe to pop in the oven to reheat food. Please note, the lid is not built for the oven or high temperatures as the silicone seal may warp or melt.
Can I remove the dividers?
The divider in our Bento Snack Box can be removed to either keep foods separate or to have one larger space. The dividers in the Bento Lunch Box are not able to be removed and are fixed in place.
Are they dishwasher safe?
Yes, our stainless steel lunch boxes are dishwasher safe. Please note the silicone seal needs to be removed first, as it isn’t suitable for dishwasher use.
What are they made from?
Our stainless steel lunch boxes are BPA-free and made from 304 food-grade stainless steel, which is rust and stain resistant.
Are these containers suitable for the freezer?
304 food-grade stainless steel is freezer safe and handles low temperatures well without cracking or becoming brittle. If freezing liquids, leave a little room at the top of the container, as liquids expand when frozen. We also recommend allowing hot containers to cool before placing them in the freezer, as sudden temperature changes can cause damage over time.
Are they leakproof?
The lid of our Bento Lunch Boxes is airtight and leakproof. However, the internal compartments are not fully sealed from each other, so keep in mind that liquids like fruit juice may seep beneath the dividers into other sections.
NESTING CONTAINERS
Are the microwave safe?
We do not recommend putting stainless steel in the microwave for safety concerns. However, our Nesting Containers are safe to pop in the oven to reheat food. Please note, the lid is not built for the oven or high temperatures as the silicone seal may warp or melt.
What are they made from?
Our stainless steel Nesting Containers are BPA-free and made from 304 food-grade stainless steel, which is rust and stain resistant.
Are they leakproof?
Yes! The lids of our Nesting Containers are airtight and leakproof.
Are they dishwasher safe?
The stainless steel containers are dishwasher friendly, however we recommend washing your silicone lids separately in warm soapy water.

Yes, 304 food-grade stainless steel is freezer safe and handles low temperatures well without cracking or becoming brittle.
