Why Pijo?
More than a lunchbox.
Yoghurt, pasta, soup, curries, bircher muesli — if you can eat it, it goes in. The premium 316L stainless steel doesn't stain, doesn't hold smells, and washes clean after every meal.
Actually easy to clean.
Every piece pulls apart. The lid, the seal, the character head — all removable. Get into every nook, wash it properly, put it back together. No mould surprises.
Stays the right temperature.
Pre-heat with boiling water for 5 minutes and hot food stays hot until lunch. Cold food stays chilled for 12 hours. No more soggy, lukewarm meals.
