A spacious lunchbox that doesn't leak, is easy to open, and offers enough space for sandwiches, fruit, and snacks. That was a request we heard more and more frequently from our customers.
That's why Talli developed our newest leak-proof stainless steel lunchbox. A large lunch box of 1400 ml with a silicone sealing ring, sturdy clips, and a removable divider. Suitable for children who take their lunch to school, but also for adults who want to take a full meal to work.
In this article, we explain how your feedback led to this new lunchbox, what makes it convenient for school, and what you can take with you.
Developed thanks to your feedback
At Talli, we use our customers' experiences to develop new products and improve existing ones. In comments and conversations, we frequently heard the same wishes.
Many customers were looking for a stainless steel lunchbox that:
- Is large enough for a full school or work lunch
- Is also suitable for yogurt, fruit, and salads
- Doesn't leak in a school bag or work bag
- Can keep different types of food separate
- Is sturdy, but also easy for children to open
We got to work with that feedback. The result is a large leak-proof stainless steel lunch box with a capacity of 1400 ml, a removable divider, and two convenient pressure clips.
What makes a lunchbox convenient for school?
A convenient lunchbox for school must be able to withstand a beating, close securely, and be easy for a child to open. In addition, there must be enough space for more than just a few sandwiches.
During a school day, children often bring bread, fruit, vegetables, and a snack. With a small lunchbox, you quickly need several separate containers for this.
Thanks to its 1400 ml capacity, this lunchbox offers sufficient space to carry various components of the school lunch together. With the divider, you can easily create a large and a small compartment.
For example:
- Sandwiches with cucumber or tomatoes next to them
- A wrap with grapes or other fruit next to it
- A pasta salad with a separate compartment for a snack
- Bread with nuts, vegetables, or dried fruit next to it
The clips close the lunchbox securely, but are simultaneously designed so that children can easily open and close them.
How does this stainless steel lunchbox stay leak-proof?
In the rim of the lid is a removable silicone sealing ring. When you close the two clips, this ring is pressed firmly against the top edge of the lunchbox.
The lid, sealing ring, and clips together create a water and airtight seal. This allows you to carry food with more moisture, in addition to bread and dry snacks.
Consider, for example:
- A salad with dressing
- Overnight oats
- Cut fruit
- A pasta or rice salad
- A cooled meal from the previous day
Always check before use that the silicone ring is evenly seated in the lid and that both clips are fully closed.
Large enough for school and work
The lunchbox has a capacity of 1400 ml and dimensions of 21 x 15 x 7 centimeters. This provides enough space for an extensive lunch, without the lunchbox being unnecessarily tall or complex in design.
For children, there is space for bread, fruit, vegetables, and something extra. For adults, a full meal fits, such as a salad, pasta, rice dish, or a combination of bread and snacks.
This makes the lunchbox suitable for:
- A school day
- Work or office
- A picnic
- A day out
- The gym
- A long car or train journey
Decide the layout yourself every day
A removable stainless steel divider is included with the lunchbox. This divides the interior into two compartments.
You choose where to place the divider. This way, you can create a large compartment for sandwiches, wraps, or a meal, and a smaller compartment for fruit, vegetables, or a snack.
Do you want to use the entire space for a salad, pasta, or another meal? Then you can easily remove the divider from the lunchbox.
Why choose a stainless steel lunchbox?
Stainless steel is sturdy, odor and taste-neutral, and suitable for daily use. The material does not absorb the smell or taste of previously carried food and is easy to clean.
The lunchbox is made of stainless steel and only uses a silicone ring for the leak-proof seal. The product is free of plastic, BPA, and BPS.

Independently tested by SGS
At Talli, we don't think it's enough to just say that a product is suitable for food contact. That's why we have our stainless steel products independently tested by SGS.
During a migration test, it is examined whether metals from the finished product can be released when it comes into contact with food. Our tested products have been positively assessed and found suitable for food contact according to the applicable European standards.

How to clean the lunchbox properly
The lunchbox, lid, and divider are dishwasher safe. The silicone ring can be removed from the lid so that you can also thoroughly clean the rim underneath.
For proper cleaning:
- Regularly remove the divider and silicone ring from the lunchbox
- Clean all parts separately
- Allow the parts to dry completely
- Place the silicone ring back evenly in the lid
- Check before use that both clips close completely
The lunchbox should not be put in the microwave. Do you want to heat a meal? Then first transfer the food to a plate or bowl suitable for the microwave.
