Save Food, Save Money, Save Space

Lock&Lock's food containers from the BasicLine series are perfect for storing fresh and frozen foods, from cut-up fruits and vegetables to leftovers or dinners. They are also great for keeping pasta, rice, flour, sugar, crackers, cookies, and other cupboard or pantry items fresh for longer, securely stored, and organized. The versatile storage containers can be used to transport lunches to and from work or school, or even for storing smaller kitchen, office, or craft items.

Lock&Lock's BasicLine series offers a wide range of shapes and sizes, each with a securely locking lid for airtight storage. Also, the clear body of the containers makes identifying contents easy, no labels required.

Airtight Containers with Four-Sided Locking System

Lock&Lock's BasicLinec series features an innovative four-sided locking system for an airtight seal and watertight storage so food stays fresh longer with no leaks or spills to worry about. The four sides of the locking system promote an airtight seal due to equal pressure to all four sides, along with the hollow-center silicon sealing ring that makes it possible to lock tightly.

Made of high-quality BPA-free plastic, Lock&Lock's BasicLinec food-storage containers not only offer an airtight and watertight seal, but they're also very durable.

The containers can withstand temperatures ranging from -4 degrees F to 210 degrees F (-20° C to +120° C), making them suitable for use in the freezer, reheating food in the microwave, and can be cleaned in the dishwasher. The base and lid should not be used in the oven, or under grill elements.

Another thoughtful design detail includes the fact that the containers can be nested together, and with the lid in place, they can be stacked one on top of the other, very useful where space is limited.

Lid blocking system

Lock&Lock BasicLine lids feature four side flaps that are hinged and slightly flared at the end for an easy grip when opening. More importantly, they come with openings that line up with matching knobs on the base of the containers, making it easy to latch the lid to the base, locking it into place. This patented blocking hole system maintains the integrity of the lid and helps promote an easy, tightly locked container.

Silicone seal

In addition to the blocking hole system, the BasicLine series features a blue hollow-center silicon ring in the lid that helps create an airtight, leak-proof seal. Generic silicon with a solid center doesn't compress as well and doesn't have the same restorative power as hollow-center silicon, which means an inferior seal. Lock&Lock's hollow-center silicon seal helps to ensure an airtight seal.

Permeability

When testing the freshness of foods, one of the most important factors is the permeability of the container. In comparison to other brands, the permeability of Lock&Lock products showed to be superior. Test results show Lock&Lock airtight containers allow in up to 6,000 times less moisture than other containers, making them far more airtight.

Healthy Living

Food containers from the Lock&Lock BasicLine series have passed the strict hygiene and safety tests of the U.S. FDA and German SGS. They are made of BPA-free plastic, are durable, and heat-resistant.

Space-Saving Design

When not in use, the clever design of the food-storage containers from the BasicLine Nestables series nest together, both lids and bases, for compact storage in a drawer or on a shelf.

All containers from the BasicLine series offer a stacking system for maximum space efficiency. The flat lids make it easy to stack one container on top of another. A slight edge helps to keep stacked containers securely in place, whether in the freezer, refrigerator, or cupboard.
