Product Description
The Araven 40-litre food storage container is a large-capacity polypropylene box designed for bulk ingredient storage in commercial kitchens. It comes supplied with a secure lid and two sets of four colour-coded clips — in red, yellow, green and blue — allowing kitchens to implement allergen or food-type separation as part of their food safety regime.
Polypropylene construction makes these containers robust enough for daily service use. They withstand temperatures down to -40°C, so they're equally suited to blast chiller and deep-freeze environments as they are to standard cold room or walk-in fridge storage. The containers nest and stack securely, which matters in kitchens where storage space is tight and boxes are handled frequently during busy service periods.
In practical terms, a container of this size is well suited to storing prep ingredients in volume — portioned proteins, marinades, stock, prepared vegetables, or dry goods in high-turnover operations. The colour-clip system is a straightforward way to support HACCP-compliant separation without adding complexity to the workflow.
- Stacks and nests to make the most of limited cold storage space
- Colour-coded clips support allergen and food-type separation
- Freezer-safe construction for use across the full cold chain
- Lid included as standard, keeping contents protected during storage
- Smooth polypropylene surfaces clean down quickly between uses
For kitchens with lower prep volumes or more limited storage space, smaller-capacity containers in the same Araven range offer the same clip system and material quality. This 40-litre size is best suited to high-volume prep kitchens, central production units, or any operation storing large batches as part of a cook-chill process.
If you're not sure which size or how many containers fits your operation's storage layout, our team is happy to help you work it out.

Frequently Asked Questions
- Yes, the lid is included as standard. Each container comes with two sets of four colour-coded clips — red, yellow, green and blue — which lock the lid securely in place and allow you to assign a colour to a specific food type or allergen category. This makes it straightforward to implement a consistent separation system across your storage.
- Yes. The polypropylene construction is rated to -40°C, so these containers are suitable for use in blast chillers, deep freezers, and standard cold rooms without risk of the material becoming brittle or distorting. They are well suited to cook-chill operations where product moves through multiple temperature stages.
- That depends on your prep volumes and the type of ingredients you're storing. The 40-litre size works well in high-volume prep kitchens, central production units, and operations that batch-prepare large quantities. If you're working in a smaller kitchen or storing portioned rather than bulk ingredients, a smaller container from the same range may be more practical — our team can help you assess what fits your workflow.
