Reduce food waste with glass food boxes and vacuum technology
Food waste is one of the biggest environmental problems of our time, but with the right storage we can all make a difference. Glass food boxes, especially with vacuum technology, are an ideal solution to keep food fresh longer and reduce waste. Here are our top tips for using glass food containers and vacuums to combat food waste.
Advantages of Glass Food Containers for Food Waste
- Keeps food fresh: Glass food boxes preserve the taste and quality of food longer than many other options.
- Odor and stain resistant: Unlike plastic, glass absorbs neither odor nor color.
- Reusable: Glass lunch boxes are durable and can be used again and again, reducing the need for disposable packaging.
What Makes Vacuum Technology So Effective?
Vacuum technology further improves glass food containers by creating an oxygen-free environment. This slows down bacterial growth and oxidation, allowing food to stay fresh up to five times longer. Explore our range of vacuum glass food containers for the perfect combination of durability and functionality.
Tips for Reducing Food Waste with Glass Meal Prep Containers
1. Store Leftovers Properly
Pack leftovers directly into glass lunch boxes and seal with a tight lid. With the vacuum function, you can further extend the shelf life.
2. Plan Your Meals
Plan the week's meals and use glass food containers to portion out the food. This helps you avoid overbuying and ensures that everything is used.
3. Freeze Surplus
Surplus from large meal preparations can easily be frozen in glass food containers. Make sure to use containers labeled as freezer-safe and leave some space for expansion. Read more about this in our guide to safe freezing with glass food containers.
4. Store Sensitive Foods in Vacuum
Sensitive foods such as salad, berries and herbs stay fresh longer in a vacuum lunch box. This is especially useful for foods that otherwise go bad quickly.
