Glass Containers with Food-grade Plastic Lids

Glass containers with Food-grade plastic lids offer the convenience for cooking and storage food: the safety and durability of glass combined with the convenience of lightweight & cost-effective plastic lids. The glass is non-porous, meaning it doesn’t absorb food odors, flavors, or stains, keeping your food fresh and untainted.

These containers are ideal for storing, reheating, and even baking, as most glass containers are microwave and oven-safe (without the lid). The plastic lids are typically airtight, helping to seal in freshness and prevent leaks, making them perfect for meal prep and on-the-go storage.

Are Glass Containers With Plastic Lids Safe For Microwave And Oven Use?

The glass portion of these containers is generally safe for use in the microwave and oven, but the plastic lids are not. Plastic lids can warp or melt under high temperatures, so they should be removed before heating. Always check the manufacturer’s instructions to confirm the maximum safe temperature for the glass, and never place the plastic lids in the oven. When microwaving, the glass container should be used without the lid, or with the lid slightly ajar to allow steam to escape.

How Should I Clean And Care For Glass Containers With Plastic Lids?

Glass containers are usually dishwasher safe, but it’s recommended to place the plastic lids on the top rack to avoid warping from high heat. For hand washing, use warm, soapy water and a soft sponge for both the glass and lids. To maintain the integrity of the lids and their seals, avoid using abrasive cleaners or scrubbing pads. After cleaning, make sure both the glass container and the lid are completely dry before storing to prevent odors and mold growth.
