The mid-size mains container

The 650ml capacity is the portion-and-a-half size in the heavy-duty range — built for generous mains, hot-deli plates needing garnish room, and curry-and-rice combinations where 500ml runs short on sauce. Microwave safe and rated for hot and cold service, the lid seats firmly to reduce leak risk in transit. When portions step up to full sharing-size mains or rice-heavy traybakes, operators typically move to the C750 (750ml) plastic container set. Supplied 225 bases with 225 lids per case.

Frequently asked questions

Will a 650ml container hold a standard curry-and-rice portion?

Yes — 650ml is sized for a generous main with sauce or a curry-and-rice combination without overfilling the lid line.

Are the lids interchangeable with the C500 or C750 bases?

No — each capacity in the heavy-duty range has its own matched lid sized to the 650ml base only.

Can the containers go straight from fridge to microwave?

The containers are microwave safe and rated for hot and cold foods, but freezer suitability is not stated on packaging.
