Care guide

A few small habits that keep your Pankui containers performing for years.

Washing

• Hand-wash with warm soapy water for daily cleaning
• Dishwasher-safe on the top rack only — heating elements at the bottom can warp the lid
• For silicone-sealed containers, remove the gasket occasionally to clean grooves

Drying

• Dry the lid groove fully before sealing — trapped moisture is what makes pantry items go stale
• Leave the lid off for 10 minutes after washing

Microwave

• Lid off, always
• Avoid heating oily foods at high power for extended periods

Freezer

• Safe down to -20°C
• Cool contents to room temperature before freezing
• Leave 1 cm headspace — contents expand

Sealing hot food

Let contents cool slightly before sealing. Vacuum-locked lids can be hard to open later — if it happens, run warm water over the lid edge for 30 seconds.

What not to do

• No direct stovetop or open-flame use
• No high-heat oven (above 100°C)
• Avoid scouring pads on the body — they scratch the clarity
