Not all trays are interchangeable, because the seal must fit in the outer box.

The Yumbox Tapas outer box is suitable for a tray with 4 and 5 compartments. Super handy!

Although Original 6 Compartment trays fit in outdoor boxes with the Panino 4 Compartments and vice versa, they will not create a seal and are not a perfect fit to prevent leakage or spillage.

Yes. Yumbox is a leak-proof container. Yumbox's silicone inner lid creates a tight seal that keeps the food in place, including thicker wet food like yogurt and apple sauce (no water). Food does not leak between compartments or outside the box. Fill each compartment up to 3/4 full to get a good seal.

Yumbox is designed for packaging wet food, but not for liquids, such as water. To ensure that the food stays in place and does not leak to other compartments, you must follow 4 simple steps as described below:

1. Do not overfill compartments (3/4 full)

2. Remove excess liquid from canned fruit, apple sauce and yogurt

3. Keep the contents cool by adding a packet of ice to your lunch bag

4. When closing Yumbox, press the lid with the palm of your hand and click the latch in the closed position to create the best seal

Do not pack yogurt drinks, soups or liquid / aqueous dressings. Pack food with the consistency of ranch dressing, ketchup, hearty salsas, hummus, yogurt, and veggie dips. These are all great options. Some oily vinaigrettes can leak out of the immersion cavity. A trick that can help keep vinaigrettes in place is to dress up the salad and cover it with a few croutons. The croutons absorb excess oil / liquid and prevent the vinaigrette from seeping into an adjacent compartment.

If you are unsure whether your food choice is too fluid to pack, we recommend that you perform a quick test before sending your child to school with that food. Simply add the test food to a compartment, close the Yumbox well and shake it a few times well (or leave it on its side for 10 minutes). Return the Yumbox to the normal position and open to check the results.

Yes. Yumbox acts as an excellent storage container. The seal keeps food fresh in the fridge for days. If warm dishes are placed inside the refrigerator, the Yumbox will close very tightly due to the condensation. To break the seal and ensure that the Yumbox tray does not stick to the lid, open the Yumbox very lightly and grip the tray firmly so that it stays in the lower part.

No. Yumbox is not made of thermal material. If you are adding foods like yogurt, which should be kept cold, we recommend packing Yumbox in an insulated bag with an ice pack to keep the contents cool. Yumbox Zuppa is a triple insulated stainless steel thermo food jar.

Yumbox is made with ABS polymer (outer box), TritanTM (tray) and silicone (seal). All materials are food safe, BPA and phthalate free and comply with CPSIA and FDA.

Yes, this product helps to reduce waste because you do not have to use plastic bags etc at lunch. Reducing this waste helps keep our planet beautiful.
