Microwave containers

Microwave containers are essential for heating ready-to-eat meals and pre-prepared dishes. With a microwave container, you can bring food to serving temperature within minutes. You can buy microwave-safe containers at PackagingDirect. We offer containers in various sizes and made from different materials.

Plastic containers in the microwave

Exposing plastic to high temperatures might seem unsafe, but with the right type of plastic container, it’s perfectly fine. Make sure to use a microwave plastic container made from PP or CPET. CPET containers can even be used in conventional ovens. In our webshop, you’ll find microwave-safe plastic containers in various designs, including options with lids and open containers. To close an open plastic container after heating, you can use sealing film. There’s also a wide choice of sizes available.

Aluminum microwave containers

Another material suitable for microwave use is aluminum. Aluminum containers for the microwave are highly stackable and provide excellent insulation. When you take the aluminum container out of the microwave, the food inside will stay warm for a longer period. We offer aluminum containers in a variety of designs, so you’ll find a suitable option for your takeaway or snack bar.

Freezer-safe microwave containers

Most CPET and PP microwave containers are also resistant to low temperatures. This means you can safely freeze food in these plastic microwave containers. Freezer-safe microwave containers are ideal for catering businesses and company canteens. We sell a variety of meal trays and microwave containers with lids suitable for freezing applications.
