PRODUCT FEATURES
Are these 32 oz polypropylene containers approved for direct food contact?
Yes. These BPA-free containers are manufactured from food-grade polypropylene (PP) that meets FDA requirements for direct food contact, making them ideal for packaging soups, sauces, deli salads, ice cream, and other edible products.
What temperature range can the 1/4-gallon container tolerate?
The PP construction allows the container to handle hot-fill applications up to 180 °F (82 °C) and remain stable down to approximately 20 °F (-6 °C). They are suitable for microwave reheating (without lid) and warm dishwashing but are not recommended for blast-freezing or long-term storage below 20 °F.
Does this 32 oz container come with a tamper-evident lid?
The base container itself is not tamper-evident, but it is compatible with several lids—including L409, L409CP, L409IMLCP, L409R, and L409RCP—some of which are available with optional tamper-evident or resealable features.
Can I microwave or dish-wash these BPA-free containers?
Yes. Polypropylene withstands typical microwave reheating temperatures (up to 180 °F) and can be cleaned on the top rack of a commercial or residential dishwasher. Always remove or vent the lid during microwave use to avoid pressure build-up.
Are decorating and labeling options available for this container?
Absolutely. The container’s eight flat panels accept Dry Offset printing, In-Mold Labeling (IML/IDF), or pressure-sensitive (PS) labels, giving brand owners multiple ways to achieve high-impact graphics.
What are the exact dimensions of the 409-series 32 oz round?
The container measures 4.57 in (116 mm) in diameter at the rim and stands 5.22 in (133 mm) tall, providing a compact footprint that fits standard deli, grab-and-go, and food-service shelving.
