Airtight Container ARAVEN AR03034

Airtight food containers maintain freshness by sealing out oxygen, which slows spoilage and oxidation. The lid forms a barrier that keeps air from reaching stored ingredients, preserving flavour, texture and nutritional value longer than open storage. This method relies on a tight seal between the container rim and the lid, preventing air exchange while allowing easy access when needed.

The container is loaded with prepared food or ingredients, then the lid is pressed down until it clicks into place. A small tab on the lid allows air inside to be expelled through a channel, reducing oxidation further. When the lid is secured, the double airtight lip ensures no air enters. To open, the tab is lifted, breaking the seal. Colour clips can be attached to the lid for quick identification of contents, and the integrated IML label provides traceability without additional stickers.

Constructed from durable plastic, the container and lid are designed for repeated use in professional kitchens. The 325x265x150 mm footprint fits standard GN 1/2 gastronorm shelves and trolleys, allowing organised storage in refrigerators, cupboards or transport racks. The 10-litre volume holds bulk ingredients or prepared dishes without overcrowding.

The lid's double airtight lip improves sealing compared to single-lip designs, reducing food waste by extending shelf life. The tab simplifies opening, even with wet or gloved hands, while the air-expelling channel minimises oxidation. Colour clips help staff quickly sort and locate items, and the IML label remains legible after repeated washing.

Cleaning involves washing the container and lid with warm water and detergent, ensuring the seal and tab are free of debris. The plastic material resists staining and odour absorption, maintaining hygiene standards in busy kitchens.

This model is part of Araven's GastroNorm range, compatible with standardised kitchen storage systems.
