The Cartints Collapsible Silicone set is designed for space-constrained environments like RVs or small apartments. It uses LFGB-compliant food-grade silicone, which offers high thermal stability for transitions from the freezer to the microwave. The "tapered bellows" engineering allows the footprint to be reduced by 60% when collapsed, while maintaining load-bearing integrity when expanded for use.
Features include a four-point locking lid mechanism designed to secure food for office commutes or household storage. For best results, the airtight vent plug should be removed before collapsing the unit to prevent vacuum-related stress on the plastic clips. While the material is highly resistant to odor retention compared to standard plastics, users should be aware that high-pigment foods like tomato sauce may cause slight tinting of the silicone over time.
For those looking for a smaller, single-bowl option for light hiking, the IYYI 800ml Bowl provides a compact alternative.
