High borosilicate glass: wide heat resistance range (-20℃ to 400℃), suitable for ovens and microwave ovens.

Ordinary glass: relatively cheap, but not resistant to high temperatures and fragile.

2.2 Sealing

Good sealing can prevent food leakage and keep food fresh. Pay attention to the following points when purchasing:

Whether the lid has a silicone sealing ring to ensure sealing.

Whether there is a snap-on design to enhance the sealing effect.

It is recommended to choose PP (polypropylene) or TRITAN material for the lid, which is non-toxic, odorless, heat-resistant, and shatter-resistant.

2.3 Partition design

Different brands of divided glass food containers have different partitioning methods; the most common ones are:

Fixed partition: the glass inside the container is directly partitioned, suitable for storing dry and wet, separated food.

Removable partition: the partition space can be adjusted as needed, with greater flexibility.

Multi-grid partitions: Common in lunch boxes, suitable for storing a variety of ingredients.

2.4 Capacity and size

Choose the appropriate capacity according to personal needs:

400ml- 600ml: Suitable for single lunch and snack storage.

2.6 Sealing

Good sealing can not only prevent food leakage but also extend the shelf life of food. When purchasing, please pay attention to:

Silicone sealing ring design: high-quality sealing rings can effectively prevent liquid leakage, especially suitable for carrying soup-like foods.

Four-sided locking cover: The design with four locking buckles is more stable than ordinary buckle covers and has a better leak-proof effect.

Is the lid easy to open? While the sealing is good, it is also necessary to ensure that the lid is not too tight to avoid affecting the convenience of daily use.

Before purchasing, you can pour water to test the sealing performance to ensure that the container will not leak.

2.7 Safety

When choosing a food container, be sure to ensure that its material meets food safety standards, such as FDA certification or LFGB, which can ensure that the glass does not contain harmful substances, such as heavy metals such as lead and cadmium.

Many divided glass food containers are equipped with sealing lids, and their sealing rings are usually made of silicone or plastic. When purchasing, you should ensure that the sealing ring is made of food-grade silicone rather than inferior plastic to avoid harmful substances migrating into the food. At the same time, the material of the lid must also be heat-resistant and non-toxic. It is recommended to choose PP material because it has a heat-resistant temperature of more than 120°C and does not contain bisphenol A (BPA-free).

Divided glass food containers can not only improve the efficiency of food storage but also help you better plan your meals and maintain healthy eating habits. When purchasing, it is recommended to make comprehensive considerations based on material, sealing, partition design, capacity ,and other aspects.
