Food storage containers

To store leftovers in the refrigerator, take food to work or even to prepare a meal: storage boxes are one of the practical items to always have in your cupboards. 

Why use storage boxes on a daily basis?

Having storage boxes at home is always very practical because they have many uses. Compact and easy to store, they will allow you to store and transport food easily, without it being in contact with the air or possible bacteria. These boxes, sometimes made of glass, sometimes made of plastic, are also more ecological, especially when they have a lid, because they limit your use of cling film or aluminum foil.

You have certainly noticed it in the aisle of your supermarket or in stores specializing in the world of cooking: there are many types of storage containers. Let us help you choose the ones that meet your needs.

At Pyrex®, we only offer you borosilicate glass storage containers because it has many advantages, but you can also find plastic or metal containers on the market.

      

Glass storage containers

If we have chosen to focus on Pyrex® borosilicate glass storage containers, it is because this material is particularly advantageous. Very robust, it resists shocks as well as temperature changes and being put in the dishwasher. Likewise, it is easy to clean and does not retain odors or stains.

      

Plastic storage boxes

Plastic storage containers are popular because they are inexpensive, however, they are also the least durable. After a few uses, the plastic becomes deformed, colored, stained or retains an unpleasant odor which alters the flavor of 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 suitable for the microwave, and which does not always like the freezer or dishwasher. It also tends to scratch easily, can oxidize and give an unpleasant metallic taste to foods.

How do you know if a box is airtight?

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