Case Study: Real Business, Real Results
The Burrito Bar in Manchester needed a better packaging solution. Their previous plastic lids weren't microwave-safe, leading to customer complaints and messy reheating attempts.
"Our customers absolutely love that they can just pop their lunch straight in the microwave at work. The lids are sturdy, they don't leak, and they fit all our pot sizes which is a lifesaver for us. It's just... easier."
David Chen – Owner
The switch resulted in a noticeable drop in packaging complaints and a 20% increase in repeat lunch orders from local offices.
Installation and Maintenance Guide
Using Your Lids
- Ensure a snug, secure fit by pressing down firmly around the entire rim of the container.

- These lids are designed for single-use only to maintain the highest food hygiene standards.
- Remember, they are only compatible with Colpac Stagione containers (FP457, FP458, & FP459).
Storing & Disposing

A: They are designed to be highly leak-resistant for saucy foods, thanks to the PP-lining and secure fit on compatible Stagione containers.
Q: Can I put these lids in a conventional oven?
A: No, they are designed for microwave and hot cupboard use only and should not be used in conventional or fan-assisted ovens.
Q: What exactly are the lids made from?
A: They are made from a durable paperboard with a natural kraft finish, which is lined with a thin, food-safe layer of polypropylene (PP).

Explore more from ColpacMore Than Just Paper: The Power of a PP-Lining
Ever wondered how a paperboard lid can handle a hot, saucy curry without turning to mush? The secret is the Polypropylene (PP) lining. It’s an ultra-thin, food-safe layer of plastic bonded seamlessly to the inside of the paperboard. Think of it like a high-tech, invisible raincoat for your food. The sturdy paperboard provides the structure and eco-friendly feel, while the PP-lining creates a powerful barrier against grease and moisture. This small detail is what makes these microwave safe takeaway box covers so effective, preventing leaks and keeping food just as you made it, from your kitchen to your customer's fork.
