DALLAS— Lifetime Brands is spotlighting the newest portable storage products under its Built division at the Dallas Total Home & Gift Market at the Dallas Market Center, here. Highlights are extensions in Built NY’s bento box offerings and its insulated bag assortment.
New in the company’s Bento box series are five-piece bento box sets in glass or polypropylene options. The Gourmet Glass Bento set features a lunch container with a utensil compartment and full size 18/10 stainless steel flatware (fork, knife, spoon) included. The 30-ounce borosilicate glass base features a polypropylene lid. The Built NY Gourmet Bento Set, which also features a lunch container with flatware, is made with break-resistant BPA-free polypropylene. For both bento box sets, the container and lid are microwave safe, without the flatware, and top rack dishwasher safe, and have been tested for lead safety and phthalates, according to the company. Each holds a suggested retail price of $14.99.
Also spotlighted are Built NY’s Gourmet Glass Sandwich Bento box, which has a 25-ounce borosilicate base and polypropylene lid and holds a $8.99 suggested retail price. The smaller version, its glass snack bento, features a 10-ounce capacity and holds a $6.99 suggested retail price.
Built NY’s IceTec Wine & Champagne Bag uses patent-pending technology said to help keep drinks cold for hours. The reusable bag features a food safe freezable gel sandwiched between an insulating outside layer and cold transmitting inside layer. The IceTec bag has a secure zipper closure, folds flat for compact storage and has a stitch free interior, a design consideration to make it easier to wipe clean with a damp cloth, according to Lifetime. The user can fold the bag flat and place it in the freezer overnight to activate the built-in freezable gel. It has a suggested retail price of $19.99.
In addition, the company will offer in Dallas Built NY’s City Carryall tote bag, made from lightweight and insulating neoprene.
