The Status 2.0-Litre Full Tritan vacuum container is the ideal way to store various foods ranging from flour or sugar to leftovers, lunches or baked goods. Built entirely from nigh unbreakable BPA-Free Tritan, it is designed to handle years of use and, for added convenience, it even features inbuilt vacuum suction and storage date indicators.
To use the vacuum function of this container, a vacuum pump will need to be purchased alongside it. Please bear in mind that you will only need one pump for multiple containers.
Through the use of either a manual or electric Status pump, this container can hold an airtight vacuum. Storing foods in a vacuum environment is an ideal way to preserve them for longer, and Status’ testing has shown that their containers allow for foodstuffs to last up to 4 times longer before going off.
This increased freshness occurs as a result of oxygen being removed from the interior of the container. By removing oxygen, the conditions needed for bacteria growth are severely limited, heavily reducing the rate at which they can spoil foods, even notoriously dangerous ones such as fresh meat or fish.
For some added convenience, this container features both a calendar storage date indicator and a vacuum suction indicator. The latter of these proves very useful to ensure that enough air is removed from the container to produce a strong enough vacuum. It also helps to show if a container has been opened but has accidentally been stored without re-applicating the vacuum.
Meanwhile, the date indicator helps to keep track of how long food inside the container has been stored or its use-by date. This is especially useful in family homes to ensure everyone knows when certain foods need to be eaten.
In a twist from their other containers, nearly all of this 2.0-litre container is made of Tritan, as the lid is also made of it for this model. Renowned for its incredible durability, Tritan is widely regarded as one of the best modern plastics, ensuring that it can handle frequent use without becoming heavily damaged or discoloured.
The fully Tritan design also allows for the container to be fully transparent. This makes it easier to see what’s stored inside without having to release the vacuum and remove the lid to check.
Of course, despite its numerous functions, this container’s primary job is storage. Therefore, Status has designed it with practicality in mind. As a result, it is safe for use in a freezer and can be cleaned in a dishwasher. It is also microwave-safe for up to 2 minutes without its lid.
This container has also been designed to be stacked on top of other Status containers and connects snuggly to the top of other 2.0-litre or 1.4-litre containers.
