These PP containers can safely handle products filled as hot as 180 °F (82 °C) and remain stable down to 20 °F (-6 °C). They perform well in refrigerated and standard freezer environments, but are not recommended for continuous exposure above 180 °F or for retort processing.

Are these 12 oz containers appropriate for hot-fill or microwave reheating?
For short-duration microwave reheating and hot fills up to 180 °F, these PP containers perform very well. However, they are not intended for oven use, stovetop heating, or prolonged microwave cooking beyond the stated temperature limit.
