Lunch Boxes
Frequently Asked Questions
Yes, stainless steel lunch boxes are superior to plastic in many ways. They are chemical-free (no BPA or phthalates), more durable, eco-friendly, and keep food fresh longer without absorbing odors or stains. Stainless steel is also easier to clean and doesn't discolour over time, making it a healthier and longer-lasting choice.
Choose based on the user's appetite and age. Small lunch boxes (350-500ml) are perfect for kids and light eaters. Medium sizes (500-750ml) suit most adults for office or daily use. Large lunch boxes (750ml+) are ideal for heavy meals or those who need more food. Multi-tier tiffin boxes are great for carrying variety — separate containers for rice, curry, and snacks.
Many Sigriwala lunch box models feature airtight lids designed to prevent spills and leaks. However, leak-proof features may vary by model. Please check the individual product details on the product page to confirm if a specific lunch box has leak-proof or airtight lid features.
No, stainless steel lunch boxes cannot be used in the microwave as metal causes sparking and can damage the microwave. To reheat food, transfer it to a microwave-safe container (glass or ceramic) before microwaving. Stainless steel lunch boxes are, however, safe for keeping food warm in insulated bags.
