Takeaway Container Sizes: How Big Is a 500, 750 or 1,000 ml Container?

A 500 ml takeaway container holds about 17 US fl oz, a 750 ml container about 25 fl oz and a 1,000 ml container about 34 fl oz. Jirun's 72 bagasse bowls and containers with a stated capacity run from 260 to 1,400 ml; at 1,000 ml alone there are 7 shapes, 45–60 mm deep. All capacities here are brim-full, so the practical fill is lower.

The band labels are typical uses, not portion advice. Models without a catalogue capacity, such as sushi trays, burger boxes and meat trays, are listed on their family pages.

03Same capacity, different shape

Why two 1,000 ml containers can look very different

Capacity says how much a container holds, not how it fits a bag, a shelf or a delivery box. At 1,000 ml, Jirun's range has 7 shapes, from 45–60 mm deep. A deep bowl suits soups and noodles; a shallow, wide container keeps a main dish and sides apart and stacks lower in a delivery bag.

When you compare suppliers, ask for three numbers per item: brim-full capacity in ml, outer size in mm and weight in grams. See how to read a spec sheet and how many fit in a 20GP or 40HQ.

04FAQ

Questions buyers ask

How many ml is a 12 oz bowl?

355 ml in US fluid ounces, or 341 ml in imperial (UK) fluid ounces. The closest Jirun size is 350 ml: JR-B06 350 ml Straight Wall Bowl.

How many ml are 16 oz, 24 oz and 32 oz containers?

In US fluid ounces, 16 oz is 473 ml, 24 oz is 710 ml and 32 oz is 946 ml. In imperial fluid ounces they are 455, 682 and 909 ml. Containers sold by ounce are usually labelled in US ounces.

How big is a 1,000 ml takeaway container?

It depends on the shape. Jirun makes 7 models of 1,000 ml: JR-B16 314G 1,000 ml Bowl, 182 × 182 × 60 mm; JR-B20 1,000 ml Bowl, 210 × 210 × 60 mm; JR-B23 1,000 ml Hexagonal Bowl, 230 × 230 × 50 mm; JR-F16 1,000 ml Single Compartment Container, 235 × 132 × 60 mm; JR-F17 1,000 ml 2-Compartment Container, 235 × 132 × 60 mm; JR-R16 1000S Square Container, 215 × 155 × 45 mm; JR-R21 ST-88G Square Container, 200 × 200 × 47 mm.

Is the ml on a takeaway container the amount of food it holds?

Not exactly. Jirun's capacities are brim-full: the volume of water that fills the container to the rim. Food is packed below the rim and below the lid, so the practical fill is lower. Check a sample with your own portion.

What is the difference between US and UK fluid ounces?

A US fluid ounce is 29.5735 ml and an imperial (UK) fluid ounce is 28.4131 ml, about 4% smaller. A "32 oz" container is 946 ml in US ounces but 909 ml in imperial ounces, so compare containers in millilitres.
