| CPET Baking and Heating Instructions |
| |
Universal CPET containers are designed to withstand conventional oven temperatures of 400°F for 30 minutes. Please note time and temperature constraints may vary due to different oven types and controls. |
| |
Lidding film should be cut or punctured or removed over each food compartment to vent steam during cooking. Failure to do so may cause damage to container integrity. |
| |
Containers must be placed on a baking sheet for heating in the center of a preheated conventional oven. |
| |
After heating in a conventional oven, remove baking sheet and container from oven and allow cooling for two minuites before handling. |
| |
After heating in a microwave oven allow cooling for two minuites prior to handling. |
| |
Do not place containers directly on oven rack. |
| |
All baking tests or container ealuations should be performed in an oven with product present in container. |
| |
Do not expose containers to direct contact with open flame or oven heating elements. For example, not for use in toaster ovens, broilers or barbeque grills. |
| |
Universal CPET containers are to be used only once. Do not re-use containers, as multiple heat applications could change the integrity of the container. |
| |
| APET Lid Recommendations |
| |
Universal APET lids should never be placed in a conventional oven or microwave oven when heating or baking product. |
| |
Heated food must be cooled before covering with an APET lid. |
| |
| Freezing Recommendations |
| |
Universal CPET containers are break resistant, designed to withstand temperatures reaching -40°F. |
| |
Proper handling must be excercised with frozen CPET products. In shipping, mark "Handle with Care." |
| |
| Lidding Film Sealing Recommendations |
| |
Universal CPET containers are compatible with a variety of lidding films. We recommend the sealing area (flange) be dry and clear of foreign matter to ensure maximum sealing integrity. |
| |
Do not reseal containers. |
