The batch cook, the overnight marinade, the bulk bag of rice. Two big containers, and the big jobs are sorted.

Some jobs are bigger than a lunch container. A tray of lasagne for the week, a family-sized batch of chicken marinating overnight, a bulk bag of rice or oats that lives in the pantry in its plastic bag with a rubber band. The usual answer is a stack of mismatched tubs, a mixing bowl under cling film, or a shelf of half-open bags.

The 2900ml is the container for those jobs. Batch cook on Sunday and store, freeze or reheat from the same container. Marinate proteins overnight in a container that won't hold onto the smell afterwards. Decant flour, oats, rice, pasta and legumes into a sealed container that looks tidy on the shelf and shows what's inside through the glass lid. Press the lid down and the vent plug seals it. And when the long weekend comes, it packs into the camping box or the caravan cupboard, where a steel body won't shatter in transit.

A pair means a big batch can be split across two containers for the freezer, or one can marinate while the other holds the pantry staples. Stainless steel doesn't stain from tomato or turmeric or hold the smell of last week's curry, so the same container can handle all of it.

Same 304-grade stainless steel, electropolished inside and out, as every Greenvyne food storage container. Tempered glass lid with an LFGB-certified silicone seal and vent plug. Microwave-safe steel base; oven-safe, freezer-safe, dishwasher-safe.

Build your set: For a range of sizes in one set, the Greenvyne rectangular stainless steel food storage set pairs a 2900ml with a 600ml and a 1500ml for meal prep, batch cooking and everyday storage. Need smaller sizes? The 600ml and 1500ml containers come in multi-packs. For packed lunches, the stainless steel lunch box with snack pot fits alongside.

Frequently Asked Questions

Search

Is it safe to marinate meat in a stainless steel container?

Yes. 304-grade stainless steel is non-reactive, so it won't interact with acidic marinades the way some materials do, and it won't hold onto smells afterwards. The tight-sealing lid also means marinating meat can go straight into the fridge without a separate covering.

Can I store flour, rice, oats and pasta in a stainless steel container?

Yes. Stainless steel is non-porous, so it doesn't absorb the smell of what was in it before, and the glass lid lets you see what's inside without opening it. Decant dry goods into a clean, dry container, press the lid down until it's flush, seal it by closing the vent plug, and keep it in a cool, dry spot. Dry goods vary in bulk: a kilo of rolled oats takes up much more room than a kilo of rice, so check how much your bag holds before you decant.

Are these food storage containers airtight?

Yes. Closing the lid pushes excess air out through the vent as it seals, and the silicone plug then closes the vent completely, creating an airtight seal around the food.

This is a mechanical seal, not a vacuum seal, which uses a manual pump to actively draw air out of the space above the food, the way a dedicated vacuum sealer bag does.

Can this container go straight from the freezer into the oven or microwave?

While the 304-grade stainless steel base can withstand temperatures from -30°C to 200°C, the glass lid must be removed to avoid extreme thermal shock. If moving a meal from the freezer to the oven or microwave, let the container sit on the counter for 5 to 10 minutes, and remove the glass lid before oven or microwave use.

Will the 2900ml fit in my microwave?

The container is 22cm long and 17cm wide, so it needs a microwave cavity or turntable wide enough to sit clear of the walls (e.g., 25 L and above). Measure your turntable before you order, and leave a gap between the container and the microwave wall. Reheat in 2-minute increments at 1000W, stirring between cycles.

Is the 2900ml suitable for camping and caravan storage?

Yes. The stainless steel body won't shatter, and containers stack inside one another when the lids are off, which saves cupboard space. The tempered glass lid is tougher than standard glass but can still break if it takes a hard knock, so pack the lids where nothing lands on them.

What is the 2900ml best for compared with the 600ml and 1500ml?

The 2900ml is the batch container: a full lasagne, a big pot of soup, a family-sized marinade or bulk pantry staples like oats, flour, rice, legumes, pasta, dry noodles, etc. The 1500ml suits generous single meals and meal prep, and the 600ml suits individual portions, snacks and oats. The 3-piece set has one of each.
