Airtight Container ARAVEN AR03027

Airtight food containers create a sealed environment that slows oxidation and moisture loss, keeping ingredients fresher for longer service cycles. The lid's double-lip seal presses against the container rim, blocking air exchange while the built-in channel lets trapped air escape when the lid is closed, reducing spoilage without vacuum equipment.

To use, fill the container with prepared food, align the lid over the rim and press down until the double lip snaps into place. A small tab on the lid edge gives a firm grip for opening. Once sealed, the container stacks with others in refrigerators, chillers or dry stores. Colour-coded clips attach to the lid for quick identification of contents or rotation dates, and the IML traceability label carries batch information without peeling or fading.

The container is moulded from food-safe polypropylene, rigid enough to stack yet light enough to handle when full. The lid uses the same material with a flexible lip that maintains its seal over repeated use. External dimensions of 265 mm by 162 mm by 100 mm match the GN1/4 gastronorm standard, fitting shelves and trolleys designed for that module. A 2.8 litre volume holds portioned ingredients or sauces without overfilling.

Cleaning follows from the smooth surfaces and removable lid: wash in hot water with detergent, rinse and air-dry. The polypropylene withstands temperatures from chilled storage to hot-water washing, and the seal remains intact after repeated cycles.

Variants include matching lids and containers in the same GN1/4 footprint, allowing interchangeable storage across a kitchen's needs.
