PRODUCT FEATURES
Are these 8 oz UniPak containers safe for direct food contact?
Yes, these tamper-evident cups are molded from BPA-free, food-grade polypropylene (PP) and comply with FDA regulations for direct contact with food, making them suitable for everything from deli salads and sauces to dry snacks and confectionery items.
What temperature range can the polypropylene containers handle?
The containers tolerate hot-fill temperatures up to roughly 180 °F (≈ 82 °C) and remain durable down to about 20 °F (≈ -6 °C). They work well in refrigerated or light freezer environments but are not designed for conventional ovens or prolonged microwave use above 180 °F.
Can these 8 oz containers be placed in the freezer?
They perform reliably in freezer conditions down to 20 °F, making them suitable for short-term frozen storage of items like ice cream toppings, fruit purées, or prepared meals. For deep-freeze settings below ‑20 °F, extended testing is recommended to ensure long-term impact resistance.
Are these polypropylene cups microwave-safe?
For reheating or warming, the PP material can withstand brief microwave cycles as long as the product temperature does not exceed 180 °F. Always remove or vent the lid to prevent pressure build-up, and avoid broiler, grill, or oven environments.
How many containers come in one case?
Each case contains 500 cups.
How clear are the containers for product display?
The UniPak series is offered in crystal clear, and opaque white options. The clear version provides excellent shelf visibility for colorful foods, while the white version offers a clean, label-friendly surface. In-mold label (IML) decoration is also available for full-graphics branding.
Are these containers recyclable and BPA-free?
Absolutely. They are molded from #5 PP, a widely recycled resin in many municipal programs, and they are completely BPA-free, supporting both food safety and sustainability initiatives.
