What to look for in a tradie lunch box

• An adult portion: around 1000 to 1200ml covers a full lunch. Add a snack box for smoko.
• Seals that hold: so curry, dressing and gravy don't end up in your bag.
• A way to heat it at work: silicone can go in the pie warmer or the microwave in the same box.
• Tough enough for site: flexible silicone handles bumps and drops.
• Easy to clean: straight into the dishwasher after a long day.
• A bag that keeps it cold on the way: an insulated bag with ice until lunch goes in the pie warmer.

Mine site and FIFO lunches

On a mine site or a FIFO roster, lunch can sit for hours before crib. Pack it cold in the Insulated Cooler Tote Bag with ice, then move your silicone bento into the pie warmer before your break. If your site has no pie warmer, the 800ml insulated food jar takes a hot meal from home.
