4 Advice to Choose a Pp Lunch Box

Good quality plastic bento boxes have a shiny appearance, beautiful design and no burrs.
As consumers pay more and more attention to health, people are concerned about whether the materials used in plastic lunch boxes themselves are healthy. Hygienic and safe materials are harmless to the human body, such as PC materials, PE materials and PP materials. Now the more common plastic lunch box materials are PC and pp materials, and the most green and environmentally friendly is the heat-resistant crisper.

Transparency of plastic lunch boxes

Plastic lunch boxes are generally made of transparent or translucent materials. In particular, the heat-resistant glass fresh-keeping box is made of high borosilicate glass, and the glass is transparent. In this way, you can easily confirm the contents of the box without opening the box when you use it.

Plastic lunch box is heat-resistant

Plastic lunch boxes have relatively high requirements for heat resistance, will not deform in high temperature water, and can even be sterilized in boiling water.

The plastic lunch box is durable

Plastic food lunch boxes should have superior impact resistance, not easily broken when heavy pressure or impact, and will not leave scratches. Generally, better quality plastic lunch box brands can be used for a longer time.

Plastic lunch box sealed

This is the first consideration when choosing a plastic bento box. Although products from different brands are sealed differently, excellent sealing is a must for the long-lasting freshness of stored food.

Plastic lunch box preservation

The international airtightness measurement standard is evaluated by the moisture permeability test. The moisture permeability of high-quality plastic lunch boxes is 200 times lower than that of similar products, which can keep the food fresh for a longer time.

Plastic lunch boxes save space

The design of plastic food lunch boxes is reasonable, and plastic lunch boxes of various sizes can be placed and combined in an orderly manner, keeping them neat and saving space.

Microwave heating of plastic lunch boxes

High-quality plastic bento boxes can heat food directly in the microwave, which is more convenient.

According to the needs of life, we design lunch boxes of different sizes and performances to make life more convenient.

Standard for high-quality plastic lunch boxes

Are you on the hunt for new lunchboxes for the new school year?  Or is your little one starting school for the very first time?  Choosing a lunchbox can be a difficult process for some people, especially when purchasing online.  And they are an investment.  Sure you could buy the super cheap options but are they going to last? And are they actually leak-proof?  And if something goes wrong is there a warranty? 

I remember buying my first Yumbox for my son who was in Kindy.  I ummed and ahhed about whether to get a Yumbox Panino or Original.  And when I finally bought the Panino I thought to myself 'I'm not telling my husband I just spent $40 on a lunchbox' haha!  However after that I was hooked.  And that first lunchbox has lasted us 7 years - a very worthy investment indeed!

We get so many mums contacting us asking which one is the best for their child - because there are so many great options on the market, it's hard to know what will be best.  And honestly, sometimes you won't know until you try them.  Once you start packing the lunchbox and can see for yourself how much your child eats each day and what you can squeeze in to the box.

We do have some tips though to make the process easier for you &#;  Scroll down for the things to think about when choosing a lunchbox.

1. Work out what type of lunch your child likes

If your child is going to be taking a sandwich to school each day, then you need a lunchbox which easily holds one, such as these:

• Yumbox Panino
• Adventure Snacks 3 Compartment Bento
• 4 Compartment Yumbox Tapas
• B.box Wholefoods Lunchbox
• MontiiCo Co Bento Three
• MontiiCo Bento Plus
• Large Go Green
• Bentgo Pop
• MontiiCo Feast

If your child is more of a picker or grazer and doesn't like full sized sandwiches, then a bento lunchbox with more compartments for packing variety is more suitable:

• Yumbox Original
• 5 Compartment Yumbox Tapas
• MontiiCo Bento 5
• Adventure Snacks Silicone 5 Compartment Bento
• Adventure Snacks Stainless Steel Lunch Box
• Bentgo Chill
• Bentgo Kids
• Go Green Snack Box

2. Does your child have a large appetite?

If not, you can get away with a smaller lunchbox.  Or if your child is the type who just wants to play (like mine!) then they don't need as much food packed for at school.  If they are a slow eater then you also won't need to pack as much as they just won't get through it before their play time starts. 

On the other hand, if they are a big eater then get something which can hold lots of food so they don't go hungry!  The B.box MontiiCo and Go Green ranges are very generously sized, and the Large Go Green is the largest bento style box on the market, holding 8 cups of food.  The b.box Wholefoods Lunchbox is also large and holds whole fruit (like apples and bananas) as well as a whole sandwich. The MontiiCo Feast has an equally large capacity to the B.Box Wholefoods.

3. Will you pack wet food like dip or thick yoghurt?

If so, we highly recommend getting a quality leak-proof lunchbox, rather than one which is bento style but not leak-proof. The most popular leak-proof brands are Yumbox, MontiiCo and Bentgo.  Alternatively, you could pack the yoghurt in a separate reusable pouch, such as the Sinchies pouches.

4.  Would you like to pack hot foods for lunch?

If your child likes hot lunches then either an OmieBox  (which has a built-in thermos section) or a stand alone insulated jar  would be a worthwhile investment.

5.  Will the lunchbox only be washed in the dishwasher?

Something practical to think about.  While most of the lunchboxes are top-rack dishwasher safe (see individual listings for care instructions), we do recommend those with silicone seals in the lid be hand-washed to prolong the life of the seals.   If the dishwasher is the only option, perhaps a silicone lunchbox  or  stainless steel lunch box  is a good option for you.

Another thing to think about - some boxes are a single piece and some (Yumboxes and Bentgo) have a removeable tray so there are 2 parts to wash.  Others (like Go Green and Bbox) can have the seals taken out to wash underneath them. 

6.  Ease of opening and closing the box

This is especially relevant for younger kids.  You want something that they can easily open and close without having to get help.  Yumbox, B.box and MontiiCo all have chunky latches which are easy for young children to use.  Something like a Go Green is more complex with 4 clips around the edges and a little dial to turn to make it leak-proof.  

7. Is one lunchbox enough?

This comes down to appetite and separation of food.  When first starting school, we recommend sending one smaller snack sized lunchbox  for recess and a larger bento box for lunch.  This makes it easier for little kids to know which box they need at which break, and also means one packed full box won't be as heavy to carry.  If you have a child who will sit and eat everything in front of them then having separate boxes is also a good idea - otherwise they might not have anything left for lunch time!

8.  Do I need an insulated lunch bag?

We do recommend an insulated bag with an ice pack.  Even when the weather isn't too hot, it helps keep the food cooler and fresher for longer.  When choosing a lunchbox be mindful about which bags they fit in to - on each lunch bag listing we have added photos or a list of different combinations of lunchboxes so you have an idea of what fits.

Hopefully that has helped you with your decision about which lunchboxes to buy!  If you do have any further questions, make sure you check out the videos on our Facebook  and Instagram  pages, or feel free to get in touch via or on social media.

Once you've experienced a great-quality lunchbox which makes packing lunches so much easier, you'll probably want to add to your collection anyway!
