Can plastic containers be washed in the dishwasher?
In our rapidly changing times, dishwashers are becoming indispensable assistants in everyday chores. But what about plastic containers, bowls and basins? Many of us remember a time when plastic and high dishwasher temperatures seemed incompatible concepts. Let's look at how relevant these concerns are and whether we can actually wash plastic in the dishwasher.
The range of plastic products in our kitchens is impressive - from packaging containers to children's dishes and kitchen utensils. However, not all of them are equal in their resistance to high temperatures. So before you throw your favorite plastic bowls in the dishwasher, let's figure out which ones can actually withstand high temperatures.
- Most plastic food storage containers have their own symbol on the bottom to indicate their type. Recyclable plastics labeled "PP" (polypropylene) and "HDPE" (high-density polyethylene) are usually heat resistant and dishwasher safe. However, plastics labeled "PET" (polyethylene terephthalate) and "LDPE" (low density polyethylene) may warp at high temperatures.
- Most dishwashers offer a variety of cycles, including delicate, standard, and intensive. If your plastic is labeled as resistant to high temperatures, then using lower temperature settings (usually 40-50 degrees) is preferable.
- Dishwashers handle large quantities of dishes in one cycle, saving you valuable time.
- The right containers and bowls can be washed safely in the dishwasher, making cleaning your kitchen utensils easier.
