Lunch Containers

Lunch containers that work together, from the main meal to the smallest snack. Choose a silicone, stainless steel or modular bento for the main event, then add snack boxes, food jars, yoghurt pouches and reusable sandwich bags for everything else. Every piece is reusable and BPA free, and made to fit inside a school or work lunch bag.

Which lunch container do you need?

• For the main meal: The 3 compartment silicone bento (1200ml) keeps a main, a side and a snack apart. The 5 compartment silicone bento (1100ml) seals each section on its own, for grazers and kids who don't like food touching.
• For one-bowl lunches: The 900ml silicone Round Bento is a single leakproof bowl for pasta, fried rice, salad or leftovers.
• Bentos with adjustable compartments: The Quad (800ml) reconfigures from 4 compartments to 3, 2 or 1. The Roundie has 6 compartments and a centre dipping container. The Duo is a 1350ml, 4 compartment bento with a 200ml insulated food jar built in.
• Stainless steel lunch box container: The Core has a 1200ml stainless steel base and a clear Tritan lid with a silicone seal that makes the whole box leakproof and airtight. Lift out the divider to switch from 3 compartments to 1.
• For snacks and fruit break: The 550ml Flexi Crunch and Sip Snack Box with a 4-clip lid, plus silicone Mini Snack Boxes (5 x 100ml) and Midi Snack Boxes (3 x 350ml) with a leakproof seal. See every snack box.
• For hot lunches: The 800ml insulated food jar for soup, pasta and leftovers on cold days.
• For soft food: Reusable yoghurt pouches for yoghurt, custard, smoothies and puree.
• Instead of cling wrap and zip-lock bags: Reusable silicone sandwich and snack bags and reusable food pouches.

Silicone or stainless steel lunch containers?

Silicone is soft, flexible and easy for little hands to open. Our 5 compartment and round silicone bentos go from freezer to microwave or oven, and into the dishwasher, which makes them handy for meal prep and reheating at work. Stainless steel is tough, doesn't hold on to smells and suits older kids, teens and adults who want a more grown-up lunch box. It can't go in the microwave, so it's best for cold lunches or paired with a food jar.

Build a lunch kit with no single-use packaging

A simple system covers most school days: one bento for lunch, a snack box for Crunch and Sip or recess, a yoghurt pouch for soft food, and an insulated lunch bag to carry it all. Nothing gets thrown away, which makes nude food days easy. The same containers work for adult work lunches too.

Lunch container FAQs

What are the best lunch containers for kids?
Containers that keep wet and dry food apart, open easily and fit in the lunch bag. A sectioned silicone bento for the main meal, plus a small snack box and a reusable yoghurt pouch, covers most school lunches.

Are Spixal lunch containers leakproof?
Yes. The 5 compartment silicone bento seals each section on its own, the Round Bento and snack boxes have a leakproof seal, and the 3 compartment bento has a leakproof seal around each section. The Duo seals every compartment too. The Core, Quad and Roundie lids seal around the whole box rather than each compartment, so pack runny food in a sealed snack box.

Are silicone lunch containers safe?
Yes. Our silicone containers are made from food-grade silicone and are BPA free. Every Spixal product is BPA free and food safe certified.

Can I microwave Spixal lunch containers?
The 5 compartment and round silicone bentos are microwave and oven safe. The Core is stainless steel, so it can't go in the microwave.

Do these lunch containers work for adults?
Yes. The 1200ml Core and silicone bentos work well for work lunches and meal prep, and they fit our Commute lunch bags.
