Containers — Food Storage

Food storage containers from Cambro Camwear boxes to Vollrath colour-coded Traex, with lids and drain boxes to match every fridge and prep bench.

Buying containers

Prep, decant and hold with a wall of boxes chefs will recognise: Cambro Camwear and FreshPro CamSquare storage, Vollrath's Traex Colour-Mate boxes, drain boxes and snap-on lids, and Polinorm lids in red, blue and clear. Prices run from under a pound for a spare lid to about £83 for the largest gasketed transport cover, with sliding-lid ice caddies and ingredient bins carrying the top of the range into three and four figures.

Buy the lid with the box, and from the same system, because lids rarely cross brands. Clear polycarbonate lets you check stock levels without opening anything, colour coding keeps raw proteins apart at a glance, and a perforated drain box keeps defrosting meat out of its own drip. Check your fridge shelf depth before committing to a size.
