FAQs

Why should I use Press’n Seal® instead of foil?

Using aluminum foil for storage purposes can become problematic when it comes to certain types of food. For example, when storing foods that have a high acidity level, such tomato sauce, you should not use foil as the acids can interact with the aluminum and make it erode. This results in holes in the foil where small amounts of aluminum can be transferred to your food, giving it a metallic taste.

​Locking lids together is easy — just place one lid on a flat surface and a second lid of the same shape on top. Gently press down on the button in the center of the top lid until you feel the two lids connect. Repeat this process to lock additional lids of the same shape onto the stack. Once you have locked lids together, store the stack of connected lids in your container storage area. That way, your lids will stay organized and you’ll have the right lid when you need it.
