FAQs
Is the container dishwasher safe?
Yes, it is designed for professional kitchen standards and is suitable for standard dishwasher cleaning cycles.
Can I use this for liquids?
While the lid is airtight for dry goods, it is not certified leak-proof for liquids if the container is tipped over.
What kind of marker should I use on the label?
It is recommended to use water-soluble markers so that the label can be wiped clean easily between different contents.
How do the ColorClips work?
The clips attach to the lid and help you visually categorize containers based on your kitchen's specific food safety color-coding system.
Can these containers be stacked safely?
Yes, the Squared series is designed with a recessed lid profile that allows multiple containers to stack securely.
Troubleshooting
Lid does not seem airtight
Ensure the rim of the container is clean of debris and press firmly on all four corners of the lid until it clicks.
Difficulty removing written labels
Use a soft cloth dampened with warm water to wipe the designated traceability area; avoid harsh chemicals.
Container is slippery when wet
Use the molded side handles for a secure grip rather than grabbing the container walls.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To prepare your container for the first time, wash it thoroughly with warm, soapy water. To engage the airtight lid, place the lid squarely over the container and apply firm, even pressure along all four edges until you feel the seal lock into place. For care, avoid using abrasive scouring pads that may scratch the clear surface and cloud visibility over time. Always ensure the container is completely dry after washing before storing new dry ingredients to prevent clumping. If using markers for the traceability label, use a water-soluble or dry-erase marker for easy removal between uses.
