2023-12-27

Polypropylene plastic packaging containers are generally suitable for a variety of hot and cold food storage. Polypropylene has high-quality temperature resistance, which allows it to maintain its structural integrity and performance over a wide range of temperatures.

Heat Resistance: Polypropylene has a high melting point, usually around 320°F (one hundred and sixty°C) or higher, depending on the grade. This makes it ideal for hot food banks and microwaves.

Microwave safe: Many polypropylene containers are classified as "microwave safe." Indicates that they can be used to reheat food in the microwave. However, specific instructions provided by the manufacturer must be consulted.

Refrigeration: Polypropylene is also suitable for refrigeration, both refrigeration and freezing. It continues to maintain its structural integrity and does not become brittle at low temperatures.

Versatility: The versatility of polypropylene makes it ideal for a wide range of food boxes such as bowls, trays and packaging that can be used in a variety of temperature situations.

Impact Resistance: Polypropylene is impact resistant, which means it can withstand a certain amount of pressure and impact without cracking or breaking easily, causing food to spoil.
