This square polycarbonate storage container from Hygiplas is a practical, everyday storage solution commonly found in commercial prep and service kitchens. Designed to hold sauces, dressings, stocks, marinated proteins, and bulk prepped ingredients, it suits the kind of mise en place routine that any structured kitchen relies on.

Polycarbonate is a sensible material choice for this kind of container. It is significantly more impact-resistant than standard food-grade plastic, which matters in a busy kitchen environment where containers are stacked, dropped, and moved repeatedly throughout service. The graduated stamped measures on the side allow kitchen teams to portion or monitor quantities at a glance without reaching for separate measuring equipment, which saves small but meaningful amounts of time during a busy prep shift.

A few points worth noting in practice:

  • Compatible with colour-coded lids, sold separately — useful for allergen separation and HACCP-compliant storage systems
  • Textured base reduces sliding on work surfaces and shelving
  • Suitable for use in freezers and dishwashers, supporting a straightforward cleaning and rotation cycle
  • The polycarbonate construction handles temperature extremes well, making it reliable across chilled, ambient, and light hot-holding applications
  • Square profile makes efficient use of fridge and shelving space compared with round containers of equivalent volume

At 3.5 litres, this container is well suited to smaller prep batches, individual service station use, or as part of a larger set where multiple containers are used across different ingredients or shifts. Operations needing significantly larger bulk storage will find higher-capacity options in the same range more appropriate.

If you are building out a storage system and want to think through capacity, lid compatibility, or colour-coding for allergen management, the team is happy to help you work through what you need.

Frequently asked questions

Is this container suitable for use in a commercial dishwasher?

Yes, the polycarbonate material is dishwasher safe, which makes it practical for end-of-service cleaning cycles. Polycarbonate can discolour over time with very aggressive detergents or extremely high wash temperatures, so it is worth checking your dishwasher's cycle settings if longevity is a concern.

Can these containers be used for allergen separation in a HACCP system?

They are well suited to allergen separation when used alongside the compatible colour-coded lids, which are sold separately. A consistent colour-coding system helps kitchen teams identify contents quickly and reduces cross-contamination risk as part of a broader HACCP approach.

Is 3.5 litres the right size for general prep and service station use?

For individual service station use or smaller prep batches — sauces, dressings, garnishes, and portioned proteins — 3.5 litres is a practical size. Kitchens preparing larger bulk quantities or looking to store significant volumes across shifts may find larger-capacity containers in the same range a better fit.
