PRODUCT FEATURES
Are these 16 oz round polypropylene containers suitable for packaging deli items, soups, sauces, and other prepared foods?
Yes, these 16 oz BPA-free PP containers are excellent for a wide range of prepared foods, including cold salads, cut fruit, deli meats, chilled soups, and sauces. Their rugged construction, snug lid fit (with the matching L314CP lids), and food-safe material make them ideal for display, carry-out, and refrigerated storage applications.
Are these 16 oz containers safe for direct food contact?
Absolutely. Made from food-grade, BPA-free polypropylene (#5), these containers comply with FDA regulations for direct food contact, making them suitable for commercial kitchens, grocery delis, and food-processing facilities.
What temperature range can these food-grade containers withstand?
The polypropylene construction can safely handle contents from approximately 20 °F (-6 °C) up to 180 °F (82 °C). They’re perfect for refrigerated or mild freezer environments and most hot-fill applications below 180 °F, but they are not intended for oven use or direct flame exposure.
Can these BPA-free containers be used in freezer applications?
They maintain structural integrity down to about 20 °F, making them suitable for short-term freezer storage and long-term refrigeration. For ultra-low or deep-freeze conditions below 0 °F, a container specifically rated for sub-zero temperatures is recommended.
Are these food-grade containers suitable for hot foods or liquids?
Yes, the containers can accept hot fills up to 180 °F (82 °C). They’re ideal for warm soups, chili, and freshly cooked sauces. However, prolonged microwave heating or boiling-hot (>180 °F) applications are not advised, as extreme heat can soften the polypropylene and compromise the seal.
How many containers come in a case?
Each case contains 1,000 containers—perfect for high-volume foodservice, meal-prep operations, and co-packing lines.
How clear are these polypropylene containers?
The translucent option offers good contact clarity, allowing customers to easily see the product while still providing protection. The white version is opaque for a clean, branded look. Both styles accept dry-offset decoration for custom graphics.
Are these containers environmentally friendly?
These containers are molded from recyclable polypropylene (#5), which is accepted by many curbside and commercial recycling programs, helping support sustainability initiatives and closed-loop recovery streams.
