Food Containers

What is an insulated lunch box?

A lunch box is an anglicism synonymous with food container. It's an accessory for transporting and eating a hot or cold meal, whether on your boat, at work, during your outdoor activity, whilst fishing or even on a construction site. These insulated food containers from the Thermos, Stanley, Klean Kanteen range can keep your meal or salad prepared in the morning hot or cold for hours. This outdoor equipment typically features a wide opening, vacuum insulation and even a solid outer wall that withstands impacts. At Freezedried & Co, we offer you a wide choice of insulated food containers available for purchase.

Some will prefer an ultra-light accessory while others will opt for an insulated lunch box for extended periods.

Optimising your insulated lunch box efficiency

To better keep your meal hot, we recommend preheating your insulated food container by pouring boiling water inside and keeping it closed for a few minutes. Then, empty the water and replace it with your meal. Make sure to carry out this operation quickly to avoid cooling the equipment's walls. Conversely, to keep your meal cold, you can perform the same operation but with very cold water.

The difference between a food flask and an airtight food container

Thermos is a brand of airtight food container. Through common misuse, the term has become so popular that it has replaced the generic name. Calling your lunch box a Thermos from the Stanley brand would be like saying you have a Jetboil from the MSR brand. It makes no sense.
