In-depth Analysis of Food Storage and Containers

Feb. 05, 2025

In daily life, food storage is a key link to ensure food safety and quality, and a suitable food storage container is an important carrier to achieve a good storage effect.


Storage containers for different foods


Glass container: The chemical properties of the glass material are stable, non-toxic, tasteless, and good sealing. Suitable for storing jam, honey, pickles, and other food. It does not react chemically with food, can maintain the original flavor and quality of food well, and the transparent characteristics make it easy to observe the state of food.


Plastic containers: Plastic containers are lightweight, not easy to break, and the price is relatively low. Among them, plastic containers made of PP are often used to store rice, beans, and other grains, as well as various snacks. However, be aware that some poor-quality plastic containers may release harmful substances at high temperatures or when in contact with certain foods, so choose products that meet food safety standards.


Key points for selecting storage containers


Material safety: Priority is given to materials that meet food safety standards to ensure that harmful substances are not transferred to food during storage. Check whether the container has the relevant quality certification mark, such as the detection of food contact materials, etc.


Sealing: Good sealing is the key to preventing moisture, oxidation, and contamination of food. You can check that the lid or seal of the container is designed to fit tightly to form an effective seal.


Capacity compatibility: Select containers with the right capacity according to the daily food storage. Oversized containers may cause food to slosh around in them, increasing the area in contact with the air; too small to meet storage needs.


Cleaning convenience: Easy-to-clean containers can effectively avoid food residue and reduce bacterial growth. Choose a container with a smooth surface and no dead corners for easy cleaning and disinfection.


The importance of food storage


Maintain food freshness: Proper storage and proper containers can slow the rate of food oxidation, water loss, and microbial growth. For example, fresh vegetables and fruits, if stored improperly, will soon shrivel and rot, and in the right environment and container, they can remain tender and juicy for longer.


Ensure food safety: Good storage conditions can effectively prevent food from being contaminated by harmful microorganisms such as bacteria and mold and reduce the risk of food poisoning. Protein-rich foods such as meat and dairy products, stored in a low-temperature and sealed environment, can inhibit the growth of harmful microorganisms.


Extend the shelf life of food: Proper storage methods and containers can extend the shelf life of food and reduce food waste. For example, for some dry goods placed in a dry, cool, and sealed container, a shelf life can be greatly extended.


The choice of food storage and containers is closely related to understanding the characteristics of different foods and the advantages and disadvantages of various containers in order to make the most suitable choice so that our diet is healthier and delicious while reducing unnecessary waste.
