Novalis Stainless Steel Bento Box with Linen Carrier

Grade 304 stainless steel lunch container with organic linen wrap
Taking lunch to the office or out on a trail should not mean carrying stained plastic takeaway tubs that smell faintly of last week's curry. Plastic containers leach smells, scratch easily, and warp in the dishwasher. We formed this travel bento box from heavy gauge grade 304 stainless steel, creating a clean, completely neutral home for your midday meal. The metal lid snaps shut with firm side clasps that keep everything neatly contained inside your work bag. To carry it effortlessly, the set includes a tailored drawstring carrier woven from unbleached organic linen. The fabric cushions the steel against knocks and doubles as a clean placemat when you sit down on a park bench or at your desk.

Five reasons to pack lunch in stainless steel

#1

Pure Grade 304

Proper stainless steel that never rusts, pits, or transfers metallic tastes.

#2

Mechanical Clasps

Tough steel wire latches that hold without rubber bands or plastic clips.

#3

Linen Companion

Unbleached organic fabric tote that keeps your work backpack tidy.

#4

Zero Staining

Tomato, turmeric, and beet juices wash straight off in hot soapy water.

#5

Plastic Free

Every single component is crafted from pure metal or woven plant fibre.

From morning kitchen to desk lunch

Day 1

Fresh Commuting

Carry your lunch cleanly without stained takeaway plastic in your bag.

Week 1

Zero Lingering Tastes

Notice your fruit tastes like fruit even if yesterday held spiced grain salad.

Month 1

Hardwearing Reliability

The steel body remains crisp, scratch-resistant, and dependable.

Packing and transporting your midday meals

Morning packing

Pack your lunch, clip the metal clasps into place, and slip the container into the linen tote.

Evening washing

Place the stainless steel box directly into the dishwasher or hand wash with warm water.

Placemat tip

Untie the drawstring carrier and unfold it flat on your desk to act as a tidy fabric placemat while you eat.

Commuting routine
Day 1
Crisp salad leaves and food that tastes solely of its original ingredients.

TRAVEL DESIGN

Four features for clean travel dining

01

Secure Latching

Fold-over stainless steel side clasps lock the lid with mechanical tension.

02

Non-Porous Surface

High grade steel stops cooking oils and dressings from permeating the metal.

03

Commute Protection

The woven linen carrier softens knocks against laptops or thermoses in your bag.

04

Clean Dining

The drawstring bag spreads out flat into an instant desk placemat wherever you stop.

Grade 304 steel versus plastic food tubs

The problem with plastic meal prep containers

Plastic food tubs quickly absorb pigments from sauces, warp in hot dishwashers, and trap rancid smells in surface scratches. Flimsy tab closures snap off after just a few weeks of use.

Austenitic steel and washable organic linen

Grade 304 stainless steel is impervious to sauces and washes back to gleaming purity every single night. The linen carrier protects against bag scuffs without synthetic foam.
