Microwave-Safe & Freezer-Safe Food Storage

Our Satco 500ml microwaveable food containers are suitable for appropriate reheating and freezer storage, providing flexibility for takeaway food preparation and meal planning.

For microwave reheating: Follow the manufacturer's heating instructions and check whether the matching lid should be removed, loosened or vented before heating. Avoid overheating and ensure food is reheated safely.

For freezer storage: Allow sufficient space for foods that expand during freezing. Follow appropriate food safety procedures for cooling, freezing, storing and thawing prepared meals.

These polypropylene containers are not intended for conventional ovens, grills or direct heat unless the manufacturer explicitly confirms suitability.

Secure Snap-On Lids Included – 250 Complete Sets

Each case includes 250 Satco 500ml food containers and 250 matching snap-on lids. There is no need to purchase separate lids for this product.

The matching lids provide a convenient closure for suitable takeaway food storage and delivery. When correctly fitted, they help reduce accidental spills during normal handling and transportation.

For foods containing sauces, curries or other liquids, avoid overfilling, ensure the lids are fully secured and keep containers upright during delivery where practical.

Important: Although the lids are designed to help reduce leaks, complete leakproof performance should not be assumed unless confirmed by the manufacturer.
