• Leak-resistant when lidded – Pairs with clear PP anti-fog lids (sold separately) for a secure seal during delivery and transport
• Anti-fog lid compatibility – Clear lid reduces condensation; food stays visibly fresh during transport and reheating
• Stackable – Nested design; 8 sleeves of 80 for efficient back-of-house storage and stock rotation
• Reusable – Heavy-duty PP withstands repeated use; most operations use as single-use but material supports reuse
