Plastic storage boxes

Plastic storage containers are popular because they are inexpensive, however, they are also the least durable. After a few uses, plastic becomes deformed, discolored, stained or retains an unpleasant odor that alters the flavor of the food. It also does not support being put in the oven, and not always in the microwave.

Metal storage boxes

Less common, metal storage containers are rarely used because it is a material that is not microwave safe, and does not always appreciate the freezer and dishwasher. It also tends to scratch easily, can oxidize and give an unpleasant metallic taste to food.

How do you know if a box is airtight?

A container is airtight if its lid allows it to be closed without air being able to enter or exit. Most airtight container lids are made of plastic or include a flexible plastic strip that allows the container to be completely closed. To find out whether one of our glass storage containers is airtight or not, simply take a look at our product sheets.
