Advantages of steel boxes
In the manufacture of our Bento boxes, we have not compromised on quality. All boxes are manufactured in the highest quality stainless steel 18/8, which is approved by the food authorities in the EU for food storage. By using stainless steel to wrap your food, you get a number of advantages. Steel can absorb cold, so if you store your Bento boxes in the fridge before use, you avoid having to bring cooling elements when you're on the go. Steel is chemical-free food storage and environmentally friendly in the sense that a steel lunch box has a long life, it can be used again and again and thus helps to create "zero" waste.
Other advantages include that by using the highest quality steel, we have ensured that your Bento Box is easy to clean and that it does not absorb color or odor from foods such as curry or beetroot. There are also a number of environmentally friendly factors that come into play when using food boxes with compartmentalization. The smart division means that you are free to use disposable packaging for wrapping your food. Our food boxes with compartments are molded and have dividers which are welded in place. This means that you can safely pack your food in the separate compartments without having to worry about whether the food is still separated when you have to enjoy your packed lunch.
The story behind the lunch box with compartmentalization
We are inspired by the Japanese way of thinking about packed lunches. "Bento system" consists of several small boxes with one or more compartments, in which you store your food without the use of additional packaging. We believe this is a perfect way to wrap our own food while minimizing our families' use of plastic.
Cleaning and maintenance of steel boxes
It is easy to clean a stainless steel Bento Box. The box absorbs neither smell nor color from food. A steel lunch box can also go in the dishwasher without any problems, its shape and color remain intact. However, be aware of flying rust. Read more here.
Lunch box with compartments is not for liquid food
You should be aware that our Bento Boxes are not leak-proof, so it is recommended that you do not use them for liquid foods such as yoghurt, dressing etc. Here we would instead recommend our Bento Rounds for delicious food storage.
