Black microwaveable food containers, 16oz/473ml, with a clear lid included. Microwave safe. Used daily by restaurants, delis, chip shops and catering operations across Ireland for hot food delivery and takeaway service. Our most reordered container — used by 500+ Irish food businesses. The 16oz is the standard size for side dishes, soups, curry sauce, desserts and medium portions — bigger than a starter, not quite a full main. If you’re doing sushi or small appetizers, the 12oz takeaway containers are the one. For generous mains, step up to the 24oz containers. 150 per case, lids included.

What Makes These Takeaway Containers Work
The black base hides sauce stains and gives a clean, professional look — customers see the food through the clear lid before they open it. The lid clips on securely enough to handle a delivery bag without leaking, but releases easily so customers aren’t wrestling with it at the table.
PP plastic handles microwave reheating without warping or releasing odour — important when your customer is reheating soup or curry at work or at home. BPA free throughout. These black microwaveable food containers stack flat in storage and pull apart cleanly during a busy service without sticking together.
At 16oz/473ml, this is the right size for a generous side, a bowl of soup, a portion of curry sauce or a dessert. It’s not a small portion container — for that, use the 12oz. For a full main meal, the 24oz gives more room. But for the side-dish-to-soup range, the 16oz is what most Irish delis and chip shops reach for first.

Size Guide — Which Takeaway Container Do You Need?
| 12oz / 355ml | Sushi sets, sashimi, small appetizers, side sauces, starter portions |
| 16oz / 473ml | Side dishes, soups, curry sauce, desserts, medium portions — this one |
| 24oz / 710ml | Main meals, generous portions, noodle dishes |
| 34oz / 1L | Large mains, family portions, bulk catering |
Go with the 16oz if you’re doing soups, sides, curry sauce or desserts. Drop to the 12oz if your portions are starter-sized or sauce-only. Step up to the 24oz if your customers say the 16oz feels tight for a main.
