Which lids to use with your personalized bowls?
In takeaway food service, the lid is much more than a simple accessory. It plays a key role in food preservation, transport safety, and also in the image you convey to your customers. An appropriate lid ensures a neat presentation while meeting the logistical and sanitary requirements of the industry.
At Covr, three types of lids are available to accompany your personalized food bowls. Each model has been designed for professional use and stands out for its technical and aesthetic properties. The 149 mm diameter lid is compatible with our 750 ml and 1000 ml bowls, while the 184 mm diameter lid is perfectly suited for the 1300 ml bowl. This compatibility criterion is essential to ensure an effective seal and safe handling.
The R-PET Lid
The R-PET (recycled plastic) lid is especially appealing thanks to its transparency. It enhances the visibility of the bowl’s contents at first glance, making it an ideal choice for salads, poke bowls, or any cold dish meant for display or shelf presentation. This model is sturdy and fully leakproof, ensuring secure transport, particularly for click & collect or self-service settings. However, it is not microwave-safe. This lid is a preferred solution for restaurants focused on the aesthetic quality of the final product and a polished presentation.
The PP Lid
The polypropylene (PP) lid, in translucent white, stands out for its heat resistance. It is microwave-safe and does not warp, making it an excellent choice for hot meals, including daily specials, reheatable dishes, or catering services requiring fast reheating. More flexible than the R-PET lid, it is easy to clip on and remove, while ensuring a secure seal. Its flexibility makes it particularly suitable for high-paced professional kitchen environments.
The Customizable Cardboard Lid
Finally, for businesses committed to an eco-friendly approach, the cardboard lid offers a sustainable and stylish alternative. Available in two finishes – matte kraft or glossy white – it can be fully customized with your brand’s visual identity. This lid combines practicality and branding, while meeting customer expectations for eco-conscious packaging. Thanks to its interior coating, it provides effective protection of the contents while reinforcing your brand identity.
All of these lids have been designed for professional use: secure closure, guaranteed leak resistance, and easy handling. Whether you're a restaurateur, caterer, or takeaway service provider, choosing the right lid enhances both your service efficiency and the perceived quality by your customers.
If you're unsure which model to choose, our team is here to help you find the lid that best suits your needs.
