Consumers shopping for fridge and freezer spares have been advised that glass products can be safer and more hygienic.
With fridge and freezer parts now including innovative features such as salad crispers and ice dispensers, an article for Napsnet has advised that when it comes to storage glass is class.
It states that the material is a much better option for keeping food that is to be reheated, adding that a number of products are currently available that are now safe to use in ovens, freezers and microwaves.
"Tempered glass containers," it advises, "withstand wide temperature variations without the risk of breakage, making them a perfect choice for freezing or reheating foods".
It is noted that, recognising the dangers of some plastic storage options, the Canadian government has now banned the use of such materials in the manufacture of children's drinkware.
