Choosing the Right Food Container

What makes a difference when it comes to delivery is the closure. The Twist Bodega screw-top container closes with a quarter turn, with a choice of aluminium, matte grey PP or glossy black PP lid. The Boko glass jar is closed with a glass lid, a rubber seal and two stainless-steel clips, providing an airtight closure that allows sterilisation. The Bokotwist, meanwhile, features a screw-on metal lid with a sealing gasket.

Heat resistance is an essential criterion that varies depending on the material of your container. Boko and Yogur glass containers are oven-, microwave- and freezer-safe. Multi-purpose kraft containers can withstand hot filling up to 100°C for soups served within the hour. The PP used for pokebowls is microwave-safe. Unlike the other materials, the PET used for Twist Bodega and Puro cardboard containers is not resistant to high temperatures and requires refrigerated storage. Each product page specifies the exact temperature limit.

Stacking and packaging are also important considerations. The raised lids of the pokebowls allow full bowls to be stacked without crushing them. Expect to order a few pieces for glass jars, compared with several hundred for standard food-service kraft containers.

The Comatec range of pots and containers offers a complete solution for professionals in the catering, food-service and takeaway sectors. Available in glass, cardboard, PET and bagasse, these containers are designed to showcase your preparations while ensuring optimal preservation.

Glass Pots, Deposit Schemes and Reuse

Bokotwist and Boko glass pots are not only reusable: they are designed for deposit-return schemes. The customer returns the pot, you wash it, and it can be used again. Deposit-return networks have been established around this principle for takeaway food service, and France's AGEC law is encouraging this approach for on-site food service.

The calculation is different from that of a disposable container. Glass costs more per unit, is ordered in smaller quantities and becomes cost-effective through repeated returns. For a recurring cocktail reception or a daily meal offer served in jars to office customers, the break-even point can be reached quickly. French-made metal lids and glass-seal-clip kits extend the lifespan of the entire system.

For transport and returns, the jars can be secured in dedicated boxes that help prevent breakage. This approach is consistent with the reusable range and takeaway offering.

Suitable Accessories and Lids

Each container has its dedicated lid: metal lids for Bokotwist, PP or aluminium lids for Twist Bodega, PET lids for Puro bowls, and lids and seals for Boko. Stainless-steel clips and silicone seals complete the range for airtight closure.

One important point to keep in mind when ordering: the lid is almost always ordered separately from the container. This makes it possible to change the style without changing the container itself, but it also means you should check the lid reference on each product page before placing your order. The same container can often accommodate several different lids.
