The Collapse-it Food Silicone Food Storage from Collapse-it, a San Clemente company, was selected as a Finalist for the Countertop Kitchenware category in the prestigious 2014 Housewares Design Awards.  This means that it is in the running for the “Best of the Best” Awards that will be given to the best housewares products of the year at the Gold, Silver and Bronze levels.

The Housewares Design Awards is the industry’s premier independent awards competition.  Winners will be announced at the Housewares Design Awards presentation ceremony and luncheon on Tuesday, February 4, 2014 at the New York Marriott Marquis.

Collapse-it food storage containers are made of high-grade silicone that has glass-like clarity, and can collapse to 1/3 its original size for ease of storage with lids intact. Using a seamless “panel and hinge” design, Collapse-it comes with an airtight lid and can create a vacuum seal that is non-mechanical. Collapse-it can go from the freezer to the oven or microwave without defrosting or removing the lid.
