The DAKON range covers round containers, rectangular containers, plastic glasses, food buckets, and the high-clarity RO Series, supplied pan-India across 24 states to distributors, restaurants, cloud kitchens, caterers, and modern trade chains.

Food-Grade PP — What It Means for Your Kitchen
DAKON containers are moulded from virgin food-grade polypropylene — BPA-free, odour-neutral, and compliant with food contact safety norms. The PP structure is heat-resistant for hot curries and gravies, microwave-safe for reheating, and freezer-safe for chilled storage. Lids use a tight-snap mechanism that resists leakage during transit. Containers are stackable to optimise kitchen and warehouse storage, and available in black, milky white, and transparent finishes to match presentation needs.
Frequently Asked Questions
Which DAKON container size is best for biryani and full meals?
For single-serve biryani, butter chicken with rice, or full thali meals, the 1000ml and 1200ml round containers are the most ordered SKUs by cloud kitchens and restaurants. For larger family-pack biryani or combo meals, the 1500ml and 1650ml containers work better. Bulk catering operators typically use the 2000ml–4500ml bucket series for batch storage.
Are DAKON plastic containers microwave safe?
Yes. DAKON containers are produced from food-grade polypropylene, which is microwave-safe for reheating purposes. We recommend removing the lid or venting it before microwaving to allow steam to escape. The PP material also handles standard hot-fill temperatures for curries, dal, and gravies straight off the kitchen line.
What is the minimum order quantity for bulk supply?
MOQ varies by SKU, size, and colour. Standard bulk orders for distributors typically start at carton or pallet quantities, while restaurant and cloud kitchen orders are flexible. For exact MOQ, lead times, and consolidated rates across multiple sizes, WhatsApp us with your size list and monthly requirement and our sales team will respond with a custom quote.
Does Alfa Foil supply plastic containers pan-India?
Yes. We supply DAKON containers across 24 states in India through our distributor network and direct dispatch from Raipur, Chhattisgarh. We service modern trade chains including Walmart BestPrice and Reliance Retail, and we currently export to Nepal, Bhutan, and Middle East markets. Logistics are arranged from our factory for bulk consignments.
Are these containers suitable for hot, oily, or gravy-based foods?
Yes. Food-grade PP is the standard material for hot, oily, and gravy-based Indian foods — biryani, curries, dal, sambar, butter chicken, and similar dishes. The leak-resistant lid mechanism is designed for delivery transit, so containers hold gravy and oil without spillage. Black and milky white variants are most commonly used for hot food packaging.
