See all food containers with lids or read our guide: Hinged vs separate-lid containers.
How much does a 1000ml container hold?
A 1000ml container holds one litre, enough for a meal for two, a family side dish or a large batch-cooking portion.
Is it good for soup?
Yes. The 1000ml container holds a large portion of soup or stew. Fill below the rim and keep it upright when carried.
Can I buy a small pack?
Yes. The 1000ml containers come in packs from 10, so you can test the size before buying 250.
Are hinged 1000ml containers different?
Yes. Hinged 1000ml containers have an attached clear lid and suit cold food on display. This container has a separate lid and suits hot food.
How many portions does 1 litre hold?
One litre holds two adult portions of curry or stew, or four side portions, so it suits family meals and batch cooking.
Do the prices include VAT?
Yes. Every price on our website includes VAT at 20%, so the price you see is the price you pay. You get a VAT invoice with every order.
