IMPORTANT PRODUCT CARE INFO

Proper care for your bento box ensures its longevity and continued beauty. Below are tailored instructions for each material, informed by experts in traditional Japanese craftsmanship to help you maintain your bento box’s quality over time. Read more here: wikipedia.org.

Wooden/Timber Bento Boxes

Handcrafted by skilled artisans, our wooden bento boxes are delicate yet durable with proper care. Avoid soaking them in water and instead use a soft, damp cloth with mild soap to clean. Harsh chemicals and abrasive scrubbers can damage the finish. Always dry thoroughly to prevent moisture buildup, which could lead to warping or cracking. With these simple steps, your wooden bento box will last beautifully for years.

ABS Bento Boxes & Two-Tone Master-Batch Finish

For our ABS bento boxes with a two-tone master batch finish, we recommend hand washing only. Avoid using harsh abrasives, which may scratch the surface and degrade the finish over time. By following these guidelines and best practices for plastic maintenance, your ABS bento box will preserve its stylish appearance and functionality for many years, making it a long-lasting addition to your collection.

Melamine Bento Boxes

Highly durable, our melamine bento boxes are designed for convenience. You can clean them by hand or in a dishwasher. Melamine is renowned for its strength and long-lasting properties, but as with all materials, avoid using abrasive sponges or cleaners to preserve the smooth surface. With correct care, melamine bento boxes provide a sturdy, reliable option for daily use.
