Insulated Canister

Uniquely plastic-free and offering exceptional thermal performance, our new Blue Water Bento Insulated Canister with bamboo lid features forward-thinking circular design. The vacuum insulated 12 ounce container will keep food hot or cold for 8+ hours and is made from fully recyclable and biodegradable materials: stainless steel, silicone and bamboo.

Like all our ECOlunchbox products, the Blue Water Bento Insulated Canister with bamboo lid is sturdy, non-breakable, and built to last for years of use. Nevertheless, users can rest easy knowing that when their eco-friendly thermos is no longer useful, we designed it with a cradle-to-cradle philosophy, so nothing will end up in the landfill. Its materials are designed to be 100% taken apart and sorted so the steel and silicone can be recycled and the bamboo, biodegraded. Unlike conventional thermal containers made from mixed materials, including plastic screw-on lids and bases with steel belly bands, the non-toxic ECOlunchbox design of this insulated canister with bamboo lid is healthy for people and planet at every stage of its lifecycle.

We think you’ll love more great product features, like the wide 4-inch container opening, which makes it so comfortable and easy to scoop up hot soups or stews with a big spoon. Say goodbye to tall narrow containers. Also, check out the insulated canister's smooth top rim, which makes it soft on the lips and ideal for sipping whether it’s a miso soup or foamy cappuccinos!

The Blue Water Bento Insulated Canister's no-leak silicone gasket rolls off for easy thorough cleaning. The gasket includes a pull tab for temperature differential pressure release.

Remove stickers:

Removal (with tough glue) is easiest by first heating them with a hair dryer, the glue then dissolves better. Sometimes water - soapy water - white spirit, sticker remover and the like will only make it worse.

Loosen the glue residue with a hair dryer. Point the hair dryer at the glue and turn it on high for two or three minutes. Scrape off the residue with your fingers and repeat the process if necessary until everything is gone.
