Stainless Steel Food Storage: The Smart Alternative for a Healthier Ho

It’s no secret that we’re a little storage-obsessed over here at Seed & Sprout HQ. And after years of designing and testing plastic-free solutions for the kitchen, we’ve landed on what we think is the smartest storage swap yet: stainless steel.

Our team wanted to create something that ticked every box - beautiful, durable, safe, and sustainable. And we’re so proud to introduce the latest additions to our kitchen range: Stainless Steel Mixing Bowls, Nesting Stainless Steel Food Containers
& Stainless Steel Dip Bowls

Whether you’re a Sunday meal prepper or a weekday lunchbox hustler, these pieces are built to make food storage simple, safe, and seriously good-looking.

Why Stainless Steel?

We get asked this a lot: why stainless steel over plastic?

Here’s the short version:

It’s low-tox and food safe. No BPA, phthalates, or chemical nasties leaching into your food.
It’s built to last. No cracking, staining, or warping.
It’s endlessly reusable and 100% recyclable. Meaning less waste in your home - and in landfill.

Basically, it’s the kind of material that does the job, holds up over time, and actually looks good on your shelf.

Meet the Stainless Steel Mixing Bowls

These bowls were designed by our team who were sick of bowls sliding around the bench mid-mix or having to transfer leftovers into another container. Not anymore.

Brushed stainless steel inside and out
Silicone non-slip base for stable mixing
Glass & silicone lids (no plastic in sight!)
Stackable and nestable to save space
Fridge, oven and dishwasher safe

They’re practical, stylish, and plastic-free from top to bottom.

Nesting Stainless Steel Food Containers

Perfect for picnics, lunchboxes, snacks, or leftovers, these containers are lightweight, leak-resistant and made for life on the go.

Airtight silicone lids keep food fresh

Our team takes these everywhere - from the office to the beach to weekend markets.

Stainless Steel Dip Bowls

Small but mighty, these bowls are perfect for prepping ingredients, holding dips, or portioning out snacks.

Durable, lightweight, and endlessly reusable
Great for sauces, dressings, sides or baking prep
Stackable and easy to store

Once you have them, you’ll wonder how you ever lived without them.
