Food/Tote Box 13L 46cm X 30.5cm X 15cm Clear

Food storage boxes hold bulk stock in a commercial kitchen. Cafes and catering services use them for dry foods such as grains, flour, and rice. Kitchens also store prepped ingredients and leftovers before service. The clear body lets staff check stock levels without lifting the lid, so they can find what they need quickly. Hotels and bakeries use them to move product between the store room and the bench. Our full food storage range covers boxes, bins and containers.

Start with a tight lid. A snap-on lid seals the box and keeps food fresh for longer in the fridge or freezer. Date every item using the labelling window so older stock gets used first. Keep dry foods away from moisture and heat. Cool leftovers before you place them in the fridge. Matching food box lids fit the box and reduce spoilage costs.

Yes. Food storage boxes are designed to store and move bulk food in one container. Catering services use them to carry prepped ingredients from a central kitchen to events or aged care homes. Load boxes onto a trolley instead of carrying stacks by hand. Keep chilled food out of the fridge for the shortest time possible. For moving bulk stock around your site, our commercial kitchen storage range adds capacity for storing and transporting items.

Not all of them. Microwave-safe food containers have a clear sign on the base, so check the product specifications before reheating anything. Food storage boxes are designed for cold storage and transport rather than the microwave. Use them in the fridge, freezer or dry store, then move leftovers to a microwave-rated dish. Our round storage containers are ideal for portioned food and everyday kitchen work.

Measure your shelf first. Check the length, width and depth against your existing racks and counters. Industry standard sizes fit without wasted space. Stackable containers save room when you store several boxes together. Shallow boxes suit produce and portioned items. Deeper boxes hold bulk dry foods. Labelling windows on the base and lid help you organise stock by date. For tight bench space, square storage containers offer 25% more capacity than round food containers.

A quality container can last for years with the right care. Review your containers at each stocktake and check for signs of wear. Deep scratches collect grime and are harder to sanitise, so replace any box that cracks or turns cloudy. Our food storage boxes have textured corners and bases that reduce scratching. That keeps each box in service for longer and means you pay less on replacements.

Give each food group its own container. Store raw meat and seafood on the lowest fridge shelf so juices cannot filter down onto ready-to-eat food. Keep gluten-free and allergen-free items in separate sealed boxes. Many Australian kitchens follow a colour code, with white often used for dairy and bakery items. Our white square storage lids are part of a seven-colour storage system designed to reduce cross-contamination.
